from your link, some states can set lower.
| To conserve resources and save money, some state and local governments mandate even lower GPM flow rates than the federal regulation.
| Examples of national and local regulations include:
| * New York City and the state of Colorado require a maximum of 2.0 GPM
| * California, Washington, and Hawaii require a maximum of 1.8 GPM
would you have states set a min flow rate?
- AlexTWithBeard 5y agoI would rather have it set at town building code level.
- username90 5y agoWhy should it be illegal to use a 3.5 GPM shower in a water rich state? That is the standard people prefer with no regulations.
