Pipe dreams

It has come to my attention recently that there is a segment of the population who has a desire for multiple shower heads in their shower. At the minimum, that number would total 2.

I guess I could see some benefit to having water hit you from multiple directions, though I am not completely sold on the process.

What I am sold on is the fact that this should not be that hard to set up. But the idea is not for you to do it yourself. The idea is for someone to start selling a kit that is easily installed, not unlike a shower head, that gives you this ability. It would require some flexible metal tubing and additional low pressure shower heads.

See, this wouldn't work in an old apartment with no water pressure. The pressure would get too watered down. That was intentional, by the way. But you could do it with modern pipes and some shower heads designed to convert low pressure into high. They exist and actually work quite well all things considered.

So you split your main pipe into two or three, attach some smart heads, and there you go. Instant fancy cribs shower.

You could do it yourself, and that's half the idea. The other half is for someone else to make a lot of money and make it easier on the rest of us.
