Save money this winter with Showerdome

Few things are as good as enjoying a long, indulgent shower on a chilly winter morning. But the steam it causes could be costing you in heating and maintenance expenses, especially in winter, when the air is colder and steam forms more easily.

That’s why, with the ever-increasing cost of living, thousands of Kiwis are turning to a revolutionary device called Showerdome for a guilt-free winter shower.

Showerdome eliminates bathroom steam, which makes for a drier home, saving on heating costs and ensuring your bathroom makeover stays pristine. Even better – Showerdome comes without any running costs.

If you step out of the shower and notice steam on the mirror and moisture on your walls, you could have a problem. Condensation makes the air harder to heat and creates an environment for mould to flourish, which, if left unchecked, can rot interiors and affect your respiratory health.

That’s the worst case scenario: but even in the best case, you’ll be left constantly cleaning your bathroom from the mildew.

Skeptical? Here’s a quick look at the science behind Showerdome.

To create steam you need two components – warm moist air from your shower, and cold air from your bathroom. A Showerdome simply stops the cold air from your bathroom from mixing with the warm moist air that your shower creates, and therefore stops steam from forming.

Inventor Ken Evans from Tauranga came up with the simple concept while waiting for his kettle to boil one day. He realised there was no steam inside the kettle; it only formed once hot air came out the spout and mixed with the cool kitchen air. Ken’s mind started ticking over, and he figured the theory must apply in his bathroom as well. Within minutes Ken had set up a trial in his bathroom. He placed a flat sheet of acrylic over the top of his shower cubicle, and turned the mixer to hot. After an hour there was still no steam in his shower or bathroom.

Ken was eager to bring his invention to the market and after years of careful research, testing and development, the final product was ready. It’s since been installed in thousands of homes across New Zealand and the world, keeping bathrooms dry and healthy whatever the season.

Each Showerdome is made in New Zealand and comes with a lifetime guarantee to stay crystal clear – something Kiwis love.
