So many people are still using old shower heads that were made back when water-saving products weren’t really a thing. Sadly, these old-timers can consume as much as 15 litres of water for every minute you’re under the shower – some may even use more! This soon mounts up over the year... But hansgrohe has a magic trick up its sleeve: “flow limitation”, the tech behind EcoSmart. This nifty feature reduces water consumption in the shower head to up to 8 l/min for overhead and hand showers, while EcoSmart+ products use even less at just 6 l/min at 3 bar. These economical shower heads enable you to save lots of warm water – and therefore energy.
It depends on whether you have purchased a cheap shower or a quality product. Low-cost shower heads are made using wear parts, meaning they give up the ghost much sooner. With quality showers, like the ones made by hansgrohe, a lot is invested into the research, development and materials so that you can enjoy these products for a long time to come. If you have an old shower head consuming more than 15 litres per minute, you should get rid of it ASAP and replace it with an eco-friendly shower. This will help you to consume much less water, energy and money throughout the year. The correct care will also significantly extend the life of your hand shower. For cleaning tips, be sure to consult the hansgrohe guide article.
