Yeah, except that my showers (and baths for that matter) are the type that are on or off, you can only adjust the temperature but not the flowrate. If you have the style where you can adjust the flow then yes you're set. Wasn't an option for me; but really, cutting that pex stuff and recrimping new ends is a 5 minute job once you have the crimper tool so that's not a big deal either..

(PS/Edit. I suppose that doesn't hold true if you have copper pipes or something.. so I guess it depends still.. Ooops.)

If you have copper pipe, there's a good chance that your house was built way before they started putting regulators in.

replacing a faucet (taps) is just a bolt on bolt off, the big problem would be if you had access to them.

even copper pipe would only make a 10 min job, ok ok 15 or 20 hehe
