A water, sewer, and gas or electric conservation device for use with a showerhead includes a body portion including an inlet, an outlet, an inner surface, and an outer surface. The outer surface adjacent the outlet is threaded and configured to mate with an additional shower component. The inner surface adjacent the inlet is threaded for mating with a water source pipe. A valve element is disposed within the body portion. It includes a port and is pivotable within the body portion between an open position and a closed position. The open position places the inlet and outlet in fluid communication through the valve element and the closed position restricts fluid communication between the inlet and outlet. A pivot axle connects to the valve element and extends from the inner surface of the body to the outer surface. A lever includes a first distal end portion and a first proximal end portion. The first distal end portion rigidly connects to and extends from the axle. A rigid handle has a second distal end portion and a second proximal end portion. The second distal end portion of the handle is pivotably connected to the first proximal end portion of the lever.
