Learn About Shower Pressure & Performance
Clear, practical guidance for choosing a better shower
Welcome to the Oxygenics Learning Center.
This resource is designed to help you understand how water pressure, showerhead design, and spray performance affect your daily shower — and how to choose the right solution for your home’s real‑world plumbing conditions.
Rather than focusing on marketing claims, we explain why showers perform differently, what actually causes weak or inconsistent pressure, and how thoughtful design can improve the shower experience without changing your plumbing or increasing water use.
Start Here: Understanding Shower Pressure
If your shower feels weak, inconsistent, or underpowered, the cause is usually structural — not the fixture itself.
These guides explain what water pressure really is, why it varies between homes, and what can (and can’t) be fixed:

Showerhead Design & Performance
Two showerheads can use the same amount of water and still feel completely different.
These articles explain how spray velocity, nozzle design, and water distribution affect perceived pressure and comfort — especially in pressure‑limited homes:

Our Design Philosophy
Oxygenics designs high‑pressure showerheads specifically for real‑world plumbing conditions — including apartments, older homes, and pressure‑limited systems.
Instead of attempting to increase water pressure, our approach focuses on spray performance and perceived pressure, using engineering and nozzle design to deliver a stronger, more satisfying shower while remaining water‑efficient and compatible with modern plumbing standards.
