Looking for "Navy Shower" Head. Don't plonk me
I'm looking for a shower head that has to be held on manually
while bathing. Let go of the cord, the water stops. You can soap up, pull the cord get clean. Any suggestions locating something like this? REH |

One knob controlled the temp, including a detent button to get to the really hot water, and another to cut the water on/off. Maybe you can contact them? |

Any suggestions locating something like this? REH It's called a "self-closing" valve (or stop). Do a GOOGLE, or: http://www.plumbingworld.com/selfclo...wervalves.html Jim |

If you decide against a chain-operated one,
a urinal valve could function in the same fashion. "Richard J Kinch" wrote in message . .. Reh writes: Any suggestions locating something like this? Home Depot, here anyways. |

At sea, unless you're on a modern cruise ship, fresh water is a rather limited commodity; it must be loaded prior to embarkation, and/or created underway by evaporators. Either way the "makes-the-ship-go" machinery and cooking get first dibs. So while showering, you get wet, secure the water (turn it off), lather up, then rinse. ================================================== ======================= "The...United States attacking Iran is ridiculous. Having said that, all options are on the table." G.W. Bush Huh? |

Yeah, but I don't think he's on a ship. I think he's just trying to be a... a... a... you know... "Californian." Remember, you can burn Hydrogen in the presence of Oxygen and get "fresh" water. All other water, including that in the designer bottles, is "used" water. |

Having been on a ship for years, I remember those handheld POS's. Typically they would just drippble out, cause the internial nozzle wore or was broken. Man, nice flash back. From now on, it's hollywood showers for me, forever! later, tom @ www.BookmarkAdmin.com |
