"Suicide showers"
That kills fewer people than gas heaters...
On the other hand, I've yet to hear anyone being killed by a regular shower head.
Legionella just entered the chat. If your hot water isn't hot enough you might be breeding them in your water lines and aerosolizng with your shower head.
I'd think Legionella is a lot less of a problem with suicide showers.
You mean one with only cold water?
The rest of the world makes the water warm before it goes to the shower head
Do they wash dishes in cold water? Idk if my hands would like that more or less my well comes out like 38°
There's a central place with a magical piece of technology that heats the water making it available to all the places where water comes out.
No I understand how normal water heaters work, I have propane on demand.
With what? A gas heater? I remember I've made a comment about those.
There are electric heaters that aren't installed in the shower head, too
Yes...
But what's your point? That doesn't make central gas heating not dangerous or the overhead electric heaters any dangerous.
