Just installed a new Oxygenics shower head and love it.  Different from our original with built in shut off and 2 setting adjustable sprays.  Only place I could find it was at Lowes.

Got one too a year or so ago. Not at Lowes, though.  It's a good unit so far. If you want to conserve water it's one that does it the best that I have found.

I added one of these ( or one very similar to this) just after the pump, with a valve to disconnect it from the system during winterization. Much like the water heater, I don't want a bunch of anti-freeze in there 'cause it's hard to get rid of it all if it gets in there.

I pumped it to 50lbs. I'm amazed at how long it will push water before the pump cycles on. The pump no longer "pulses" when the faucet is less than 1/2 open or at any time in a shower.

Benefit #2 is I can get 2 to 3 toilet flushes at night and no pump cycle. 😁

Once winterization juice is in the lines, and the system is no longer under constant pressure, I open the valve to the tank again to allow for additional expansion of any remaining drops of water in the tank shoud it get below freezing (again).

Fortunately there is enough room under the bench seat near the pump to anchor the tank down on it's side.

Safe travels,
