Why is it that a shower curtain is pulled inwards as soon as you turn on the water?

When you turn on the water in the shower, the warm air rises and creates a low-pressure area inside the shower, causing the shower curtain to be pulled inwards. This is known as the Bernoulli principle, where the difference in pressure between the inside and outside of the shower causes the curtain to move towards the lower pressure area.

Why do your shower curtains wrap around your legs when you turn the water pressure on higher?

Haha I doubt that there is any "official" answer for this but I would have to say that the wind caused by the falling water would cause the shower curtain to blow back and forth. Shower curtains are also made to stick to water so that they will stick to the bath tub so I guess if your legs are wet, it will stick to them too.

What causes minimal water flow from a shower?

Usually clogged shower heads. Turn water off and shower off. Screw shower nozzle off by hand or with pipe wrench. Turn water and shower on with nozzle head off if water flows clean or replace nozzle. If water pressure is still too low with nozzle off check shut off valve and open valve more. Make sure main water shut off for your house is open enough to allow adequate water pressure.
