The other day I mentioned that we were starting to think about finally finishing our home renovation projects. Well, as a result of this new interest in sprucing up our home I’ve been looking at home renovation sites and checking out new products.
It will be quite a while before we renovate our upstairs and basement bathrooms, but I definitely have some ideas as to what I’d like to do when we do work on them. For instance, I had no idea that such a thing as a digital shower existed! When we redo the basement bathroom I want to put in a whirlpool bathtub and have a separate shower enclosure, and now I’m pretty sure that the shower controls will be digital!
Have you ever heard of a digital shower? If you haven’t and you’ve been thinking of redoing your bathroom, you should look into this new technology. A digital shower allows you to start the water flowing in your shower from any room in the house. Not only that, you can program the temperature that you want the shower water to be set at and you’ll have the perfect shower.
No more adjusting the temperature over and over again as you start your shower. That’s one of the things I hate about our shower. I start the water and it’s always too cold at first, so I add more hot water and then it’s too hot so I spend a few minutes trying to get it just right. I imagine I’m also wasting quite a bit of water as I try to get the temperature just right. If we had a digital shower I wouldn’t be wasting my time or all that water anymore.
You can apparently program a digital shower for each family member. So if one person likes a cool shower and another likes a hot one (I like warm – not too cool or too hot) everyone can program in their personal preferences.
How does it work? Well you turn on the shower and when the desired temperature is reached it will beep or give some kind of visual signal. Some of the units will even even keep the water temperature consistent even if other members of the household are flushing a toilet while you shower.
I’m going to put a digital shower on my wish list for when we get around to renovating our bathrooms.
Does anyone already have a digital shower? If so, what do you think of it?
We’ve noticed more of our clients asking about digital showers. While they haven’t made it to main stream just yet, I have a feeling it’s only a matter of time.
I love the digital showers!
This definitely appeals to my inner geek! 🙂
I’m well known amongst friends for having strange gadgets around the house and this has to be the next. Think I’m most proud of the Internet connected microwave – wonder if I can do the same with a shower. 🙂
We’re starting a self-build project soon – so I’ll add this to the shopping list!
I’ve never seen that before. What if you turn it on and forget about it? Isn’t there a lot of potential to waste water here? I’ve never minded waiting a few seconds for the shower to heat up.
Thanks for sharing. Development of technology, great ideas and designs emerge every corner of the house.
