Product

ShowerStar is the highest impact and lowest-cost water and energy efficiency measure available, teaching and nudging people to take shorter showers on a daily basis.

An award winning, simple DIY retrofit product that mounts onto an existing shower pipe or shower-head and that automatically detects when a shower starts to provide automatic behavioural nudges each time someone showers.

Once the sensor detects a shower has started, a timer starts and simple "Traffic Light" alerts nudge the person showering about their shower time and when its time to get out.

ShowerStar is powered via a long life rechargeable battery with a USB type C port for charging from a standard USB charger. The battery lifespan is ~6-8 months or more depending on use and configuration*.

Forecasting savings

Once you've entered your city or state, cost of water, type of water heating heating technology, cost of energy and the flow rate, you can use the forecasting tool in the App to determine what your savings would be by reducing your shower times.

The App displays water savings, energy savings and total cost savings.

The formula for these savings calculation was developed independently and details can be found here.
