In a Dry Country, Every Shower and Tap Counts
Namibians are well aware that water is a limited resource. While campaigns encourage shorter showers and fixing leaks, the hardware people buy affects water usage. Many showers and taps list flow rates in litres per minute, but imported goods may use gallons per minute or PSI. These differing measurements make it difficult for consumers to compare products. A plumbing unit converter for bar, PSI, and flow rates can assist households, plumbers, and store owners.

This can make comparison confusing. A simple plumbing unit converter for bar, PSI and flow rates helps households, plumbers and shop owners compare products on the same basis
