Here’s a nifty device that will not only save the environment, but save you money too, by regulating the water you use ever time you smell bad.
The eaga ShowerSmart regulates the flow rate of a non-electric shower to 7.8 litres per minute - the equivalent of a powerful electric shower.
That by itself may not mean much, but for a 2-person home, this gadget will save more than 12,000 litres per year, cut carbon emissions by 1 tonne of CO2 over its lifetime and can save about £20 on gas and £20 on water bills per year.
Best of all, you don’t have to fork out any cash in advance and wait for the long-term payment, because the ShowerSmart is currently free when you apply through the Green Consumer Guide.
Who say the Government never gives you anything?
There is a limit of one per UK house hold on this scheme.
If you already have a water-saving shower, then the ShowerSmart may not make a difference. To find out if this is the case, you can receive a measuring bag which allows you to see if you would benefit from this device.
To test out your shower with the measuring bag you jut need to put your showerhead into the bag and quickly turn on the shower for 5 seconds. If the water level in the bag is above the measuring line, then your shower unit is not efficient and you will benefit from installing the unit. If the water level is below the line, then you have an efficient shower and the ShowerSmart won’t make any difference to your water consumption.
If you’re amongst the majority who could stand to save a bit of cash and the environment while you’re at it, take a look at the free ShowerSmart ofer.

ref 2570764. i have been informed today 12.08.10 of my free eaga showersmart device via mail ref no as above. please note note i have never shown any interest in the above device.i do not require the above device.
How could you not want one of these FREE items???? Do u not recycle?? Turn un wanted lights off when not in use??? The divice make so little difference to your showering experience and saves money and the enviroment. Can anyone give a argument other than i want more water????
I received a leaflet from eaga shower saying that they have received a request from me that and that I am interested in their showersmart fitting.
I live in Hopcroft Close and the leaflet was addressed for the attention of Mr Hopcro Jack. My name is David Scott.
Does anyone think they sell a lot of these items?? I don’t!!
The device was invented to reduce Carbon dioxide emissions which is a fair approach. However, in my home with the device installed, water trickles through which would keep me longer under the shower. I live in the 21 Century and would appreciate high pressure water out of my tap, not quantity of water, pressure (e.g. other European developed countries).
Approx. 50% of UK water is lost due to the poorly maintained water supply (leaks in pipes) which is owned by private companies. Now if you want decrease carbon dioxide wouldn’t you want to decrease the water loss? You may ask why they do not do this, well consider the investment needed, which amounts to far more than the research, development, production and distribution of a silly little device which reduce comfort in showering. It is a very short term approach but typical from government because it favors the company that produces the device, the water supply companies but sadly increases wasted human energy in development.
If you would track down the real problem, you may realize that it is the increase of the egocentric thinking in our society. Economic growth. If we would accept that economic growth is not an advantage to the environment and truly were concerned about the environment, we would have to reduce the number of “I”‘s in our language.
Today I received notification that I have requested a freeEaga Smart Shower Ref No 5364346. I also must say I do not need or require this product.
