EN663 Reducing water use: showers

Cover image showing: EN663 Reducing water use: showers

It is a common perception that showers use less water than baths. However, power showers are increasingly more popular and even a quick five-minute shower using a poorly designed power shower can use as much as a bath (60 - 70 litres). There are several water saving devices available to businesses to reduce water use substantially. This leaflet provides guidance on what you need to consider and how to evaluate the best solution to meet your needs.
