When I got my coach the shower head was not connected and the diverter faucet had been replaced with a non-diverter type.

I plumbed in a simple RV shower faucet to resolve that. That works, but we learned that it is inconvenient to turn off the water and then re-adjust the temperature. So we are tempted to leave it running when we really do not need to. And we are also learning the value of conserving water when you only have about 35 gallons on board.

I still have (what I believe to be) the original shower head. And it drips a little at the faucet end of the hose. I would like to replace it. I have found some residential shower heads that have a "pause" button. That seems like it would work. But I am wondering if the residential shower heads use WAY more water than the "RV" ones.

If so are there any RV shower heads that have some kind of a pause feature? The other idea I had is what they do at Oshkosh Airventure and use a dish sprayer (where you have to press the lever to turn on) for a shower head.
