The High Pitched Whine of My Showerhead, and Why I Like It
Posted by Eric Stein - January 11, 2010 @ 19:00:16
It's a squealing sound. Shrill, even. Why would I like such a thing? How could I want to get into the shower in the morning and hear unpleasant sounds?
Because I don't like being frozen or burned, that's why. The pitch of the squeal goes down if either the hot water or cold water is about to drop precipitously. I get about 2 seconds of warning before I experience serious discomfort.
When I moved in I didn't really think "I hope my shower shrills in my ear", but I guess it's what I want, given the situation. Thanks showerhead!
