I'm not sure of the exact wells requirements ( I just know that if you buy here in aus it meet the standards)
But the showers are no more than 9 lt / minute
I think taps are 5 or 6 lt/ minute.If you dont play it, it's not an instrument!

Wells came in 2 years ago with an amnesty type period of a little over 18 months ( so suppliers and plumbers could come to grips with it.)
Besides wells requirements the taps you install must have the australian water mark - this says that they are approved here for installation.
As i said earlier the metals american taps are made out of may not, and in my opinion will not, be able to cope with the harshness of our water in australia.
Short answer- no you can't install any overseas sourced taps here.If you dont play it, it's not an instrument!
