Waitek, a New Zealand company has developed and tested the Shower Monitor at Australian Universities and under market conditions.
Test results prove that the Shower Monitor can reduce water and energy costs in the shower by up to 30%.
No big deal until you multiply the water and energy savings by the total number of showers taken worldwide every day. Then it’s mind boggling.

When the shower is turned on the Shower Monitor© will wake up and display the current time, temperature and a full bar graph.
As warm water flows from the shower the Shower Monitor calculates the amount of hot water used and reduces the bar graph accordingly.
The higher the shower water temperature and/or flow the quicker the bar graph will decrease, conversely the lower the temperature and/or flow the slower the bar graph will decrease.
After a preset amount of hot water has been used a beeper will sound.
The only way to turn the beeper off is to turn the shower off.
If the shower is turned back on within the adjustable delay period the beeper will come back on.
After the shower has been turned off for more than the delay period the Shower Monitor© will re-set automatically ready for the next person.
If a home owner has a small hot water cylinder they can change the Shower Monitor© settings so that everyone has an equal amount of hot water to shower with every day.

"The Shower Monitor was easy to install and works flawlessly. It immediately caught the attention of my two teenagers (both shower hogs) and we had an active discussion concerning the setup parameters. Most importantly they bought into the idea of trying to finish their showers before the timer runs out and the alarm sounds. The only concession I had to make was to allow a slightly higher temperature than your default setting, we agreed on keeping the rest of your defaults. I am the keeper of the code so no changes can be made without another family discussion. The acid test came this morning when both teens had to shower before school. This morning went smoother than any weekday morning in recent memory!"
