The Trump administration is planning to flood out regulators with a new definition for showerheads that will allow the president and other citizens to return to the good old days of high-pressured showers.
The Department of Energy may loosen a decades-old regulation that limits the amount of water that can flow through showerheads, according to a Wednesday proposal. The 1992 regulation limited water flow to 2.5 gallons per minute. That regulation was strengthened under the Obama administration, which closed a loophole that allowed manufacturers to add multiple faucets to the showerhead to increase the pressure.
