Default Shower water consumption

That's at some estimated pressure. I've got my fresh water pump set to about
25 psi or so, and the low flow shower heads are REALLY low flow at that
pressure. Plus they have the button to turn them on and off.

Hi,

Far Cove is set up for a shower, but was never installed. I was looking
at "low-flow" showerheads, and they say they use 2.5gpm. Egad - for a
5-min shower that's over 10 gallons! Far Cove has 50gal of water, and I'm
thinking of addding another 20gal tank, but still: 10 gals per shower??

Is this realistic? What is a practical estimate of how much water an
on-board shower will take?
