This bill aims to establish a specific definition for the term "showerhead" concerning federal water pressure regulations. It achieves this by repealing the Department of Energy's final rule from December 20, 2021, which had previously updated the definition. The legislation subsequently reinstates and grants the full force and effect of law to an earlier Department of Energy final rule, published on December 16, 2020. This action ensures that the 2020 definition of "showerhead" is legally binding, thereby influencing the standards for acceptable water pressure in these devices.
