Statistics suggest that showering accounts for around one third of the total water used in the home. With each person in the UK using around 150 litres of water a day, this brings into question the accepted notion that showering uses less water than having a bath.
The Eco Showerdrop Shower Meter is an ingenious yet simple device designed to help you keep track of how much water you’re using. Easy to install, with no tools required, this is the world’s first low-cost, universal shower meter. Just measure how long your shower takes to dispense a litre of water, then the display screen's uncomplicated graphics will help you monitor exactly how much water your shower is dispensing, and a simple alert tells you when the recommended amount (35 litre) has been used.
With this gadget installed in your eco-friendly bathroom not only will you be making savings on your water and energy bills, but each shower will be contributing to cleaning up the planet.
Surveys carried out by Waterwise and the Energy Savings Trust have found that if you follow the advice of the Eco Showerdrop and use only 35 litres of water per shower, a family of four could save over £180 on water and energy bills per year. As well as this, you would save over 40,000 litres of water and two thirds of a tonne of carbon.
Certified as an award winning water saver by Waterwise, the independent UK NGO.

Q: How does the ECO Showerdrop Shower Meter measure the amount the water used?
A: The Showerdrop Shower Meter requires some simple set-up before first use. Basically you time how long the shower takes to dispense one litre of water (a purpose designed bag is included to facilitate this) and enter the value into the Showerdrop. Once this has been done, when you begin to shower you start the Showerdrop and it will calculate based on time elapsed how much water has been consumed.
