KOHLER, WIS.—Kohler, a global leader in water stewardship and sustainable design, is advancing its commitment to sustainable living with the debut of the Parallel 1.25 GPM Showerhead—a modern, high‑efficiency solution designed to help consumers significantly reduce water usage while maintaining a rich, immersive showering experience.
Kohler continues to prioritize innovative water design that empowers individuals and builders to make environmentally responsible choices. The new Parallel Showerhead embodies this mission, operating at just 1.25 gallons per minute, half the flow of a standard 2.5 GPM showerhead.
Parallel features Kohler’s Katalyst Plus spray technology, engineered specifically to maximize rinsing efficiency. By doubling the air‑to‑water ratio in each droplet, Katalyst Plus amplifies the sensation of fullness and coverage while minimizing water use. The result is a deeply satisfying spray that aligns with environmentally conscious living.
No Sacrifice in Performance
“Reducing water use is one of the most immediate and impactful ways individuals can support a more sustainable future,” said Jackie Schneider, Sr. Director – Business Development, sustainable Living. “With the Parallel 1.25 GPM Showerhead, homeowners can meaningfully reduce their water footprint without giving up the comfort and performance they expect from Kohler.”
The showerhead’s efficiency also supports larger sustainability goals. By using 50 percent less water, the product can contribute toward LEED certification in residential and commercial projects, and carries the WaterSense label, signifying it meets strict EPA standards for both performance and reduced water usage.
Beyond its environmental benefits, the Parallel showerhead brings modern, cohesive styling to the bathroom. Its clean shape complements the full Parallel bathroom collection, allowing homeowners to create a unified design aesthetic. Parallel is available in four finishes—Polished Chrome, Vibrant Brushed Nickel, Vibrant Brushed Moderne Brass, and Matte Black.
The showerhead installs easily onto any standard ½-inch NPT shower arm, making a sustainable upgrade accessible for remodels or simple refreshes.
