A shower that recycles water while you wash!!

How awesome is a closed loop shower?


The futuristic shower that recycles water 'while you wash'


Answer - Very Awesome!!

I came across an article in edie mentioning a shower that recycles water as you wash!! It was developed in Sweden by a company called Orbital Systems and I just have to share!

It was originally designed in mind for the use by NASA. It takes the water you have been washing with and purifies it to drinking water standard so it can be used again whilst you are showering!! This saves on  both energy to heat the water and water to wash!!

Apparently the system can save more than 90% water and 80% energy!!  It only needs 5 litres of water for one 10 minute shower compared to 150 litres normally

I would definitely consider one of these if I was to refit my bathroom!!
