Most modern Moen shower heads feature a built-in flow restrictor or water-saving washer designed to comply with federal water conservation standards, typically limiting flow to 2.0 or 2.5 gallons per minute. Many of these flow restrictors can be removed or modified, though the exact method depends on the specific model. By unscrewing the shower head from the shower arm, you can often use a small pair of needle-nose pliers to carefully pull out the small plastic or mesh flow-limiting disc lodged inside the inlet connection, though doing so may slightly increase household water consumption.
