Rain Shower Head

and i'm wondering between Grohe or Hansgrohe, which is better in term of price and performance.

I have heard that Hansgrohe is more sophisticated and it is more suitable for Condo and landed property where the water pressure is more powerful as for Grohe it is more HDB friendly and they have series of Rainshower that work well in HDB flat. How true are they ?

Any advice any one ?

********
was told by the sales pple, the requirements was 1.5bar for use with the 150mm shower head... anything larger HDB water pressure won't be possible as HDB pressure is only 1.5 bar

Water Pressure issue

1. Stop Cord for water pressure issue.

2. By double-flow I meant the combine rush of hot/cold water from two pipes due to the installation of a storage heater tank may increase the throughput.

3. Also, the water how the water pipe runs in your flat can make a difference. It should be closed to the same level as your water tap.

4. One of my tap in the bathroom was flowing alright until I put in a PUB water saving thimble (forgot its name, got it free from PUB), the water flow immediately slowed down. In the end, I removed the rubber ring.
