Abstract
A new Shower Water Conservation System for conserving water during a shower thereby resulting in reduced water bills includes a T-spigot, a first flexible tube coupled to the T-spigot, a water control valve matingly coupled with the first flexible tube opposite of the T-spigot, a second flexible tube matingly coupled to the control valve, and a T-coupler matingly coupled to the second flexible tube and a shower head.
Claims6
A Shower Water Conservation System comprising:
- a T-spigot having a first end adapted to be coupled to a water supply pipe, a second end and a third end;
- said second end having a shut-off valve;
- a first flexible tube removably coupled at one end thereof to said third end;
- a water control means matingly coupled to the opposite end of said first flexible tube, where by said water control means is positioned and adapted to be manually manipulated by a foot of the user to control water flow from said first flexible tube;
- a second flexible tube matingly coupled at one end thereof to said water control means opposite of said first flexible tube;
- and
- a T-coupler adapted to be secured mesial a shower head and a water supply pipe, where the opposite end of said second flexible tube is removably coupled to said T-coupler to supply water to said shower head.

- a T-spigot having a first end adapted to be coupled to a water supply pipe, a second end and a third end;
- said second end having a shut-off valve;
- a first flexible tube removably coupled at one end thereof to said third end by a coupling means;
- a water control means matingly coupled to the opposite end of said first flexible tube, where by said water control means is positioned and adapted to be manually manipulated by a foot of the user to control water flow from said first flexible tube;
- a second flexible tube matingly coupled at one end thereof to said water control means opposite of said first flexible tube;
- a T-coupler adapted to be secured mesial a shower head and a water supply pipe, where the opposite end of said second flexible tube is removably coupled to said T-coupler by said coupling means to supply water to said shower head;
- a pair of caps for matingly coupling with said third end and said T-coupler when said first and second flexible tubes are removed therefrom, to prevent leakage of water;
- and,
- a storage hook adapted to be secured to a wall of a bath tub for supporting said first flexible tube and said second flexible tube.
