For a more unique approach to combating low water pressure, the AQUAS AquaMax Flex Manual X-Jet 9.5KW has a specialised showerhead to give you more from your shower.

AQUAS also provides you with two power settings to allow you to maximise efficiency.

5. hansgrohe Vernis Blend Showerpipe 200 Thermostatic Shower Mixer

Hansgrohe’s Vernis Blend Showerpipe 200 Thermostatic Shower Mixer is another strong contender for top low pressure shower heads. Whilst the overhead shower itself only features one setting: Rain, the handheld shower has an additional option. As well as matching the water flow of the overhead, the handset also offers an IntenseRain setting. This is a more powerful spray which is great for manoeuvrability.

6. Grohe G1000 Performance Low Pressure Euphoria Shower Set

8. Aqualisa iSystem Smart Shower Concealed

Aqualisa’s iSystem Smart Shower Concealed is another high tech system from Aqualisa for low pressure shower heads. Whilst it does share similarities with the Visage Q Smart Shower, especially in terms of its ability to connect to Amazon Alexa or Google Home, this shower also features a boost button for enhanced flow.

9. Juno Bar Shower Package with Valve + Slider Rail Kit

If a simple mixer shower that is also good for low water pressure is what you’re looking for, then the Juno Bar Shower Package is a good choice. Whilst this shower may not come with all the bells and whistles featured by some of the other showers on this list, the Juno Bar Shower offers an array of water pressures. With a range from a light spritz to a rejuvenating blast, you won’t be disappointed by this small but mighty low pressure showerhead.

10. AQUAS Aquamax Pro with Column Manual Electric Shower

An additional Aquas shower that made it to our top low pressure shower heads list is the AQUAS Aquamax Pro with Column Manual Electric Shower. With a completely different showerhead than the Aquamax Flex, this shower will provide you with a completely different experience.
