Simple way to reduce water used in shower # 2

Having the means to switch off the water without having to close the main taps, means the temperature won't need adjusting and you can save water whilst you're soaping up, and before you rinse off.  Don't forget to stand in a tub to collect all your shower water run-off to re-use to wash your floors or in your laundry wash cycle.

Water saving modification to shower, hopefully going to save lots of water

Just remember to switch off the taps after you shower to prevent a pressure build up. We also empty the pipe with a quick squirt.
