Dont waste $$$ 

Sure got a bit of leak lah.

$3 shower head is good enough.
It got a stop water flow button.

It’s a gd practice to install as many control valves as possible. For heater, for shower, to toilet bowls, toilet sinks, kitchen sinks and so on. In case of emergency like leakage, just turn off the nearest control valve

No need so many lah, just shut off the main valve will do. It is because if main valve spoilt, not your problem lah. Normally, it is installed outside your unit.

Water leakage you need to repair it.
No water for a while is ok.
I am more worry if more control valves are installed  mean it has more metal parts. It will get rust inside the piping which you cant see them. Drinking too much rusty water(heavy metal water) may cause memory loss.

i thought of it too.............but afraid that even a single extra valve will reduce the waterflow............somehow my waterflow at home very low...........every tap also like that...........adjust the main valve outside the flat also cannot increase the waterflow.......
