In the UK, we use around 150 litres of water a day. Typically, 35% of that is in the bathroom. That’s also the place we use most hot water.
Of course we all know that a shower uses much less water than a bath – or does it? A bath holds about 80-100 litres of water. But a modern power shower can easily use 20 litres of water a minute, meaning more than five minutes in the shower could use more than 100 litres.
Different flow rates and different showerheads mean that water use varies. So whilst simply timing your shower is a step in the right direction, it doesn’t tell you how much water is being used.
The Eco Showerdrop is the world’s first low-cost, universal shower meter.A simple digital display lets you know exactly how much water your shower dispenses through user-friendly graphics. A simple alert tells you when the recommended amount of water has been dispensed.*
The savings can be substantial in both water and energy. For a family of four that could be over £180 a year saved on water and energy bills, as well as over 40,000 litres of water and two thirds of a tonne of carbon**!
There’s no installation, just a very simple set-up, and no tools are required.
Like its award-winning sister product, the Eco Kettle, it’s Brilliantly Simple – Simply Brilliant.
