The water widget

A more refreshing shower experience which saves CO2e

The water widget aerates the water and so uses less water and less energy to heat the water.

Our first product is a simple but highly-effective water saving device. Each widget saves 1 tonne CO2e over its ten-year life.

The water widget is a simple inline device, which works with both fixed showerheads and showerheads on flexible shower hoses. It can be fitted in minutes and has a built-in ‘fail-safe’ effect so you know it’s working.

There are tens of millions of showers in the UK which would benefit from the fitting of a water widget.

The effect of the water widget is to get air into each water droplet so most – it not all – of what remains hits your skin.

See our video here, which explains how this works and how the unit is fitted.

The water widget is not suitable for electric showers, multi-function shower heads or showers where the water pressure is already quite low. If a water widget is fitted in such situations, water will flow out of the air-hole in the side of the water widget to show it’s not suitable.

“Many of our recipients report a better ‘feel’ and bouncier hair as a result of showering with a water widget. It’s hardly a scientific claim but if people are happier with their hair, that’s another bit of positive feedback we’ll happily take!”

Water widget

Did you know, in a normal shower, 50% of each droplet of water is wasted? Using normal showers, you’re not as wet as you think you are.

Social impact

Many of the schemes we run, which deliver Verified Emission Reductions, also deliver considerable ‘social value’.

Collaborations

The activity we run can be done in collaboration with brands/groups who wish to deliver money and energy savings to stakeholders.
