Water-Recycling Shower - Quench Enables Guilt-Free Shower Indulgence (VIDEO)
Quench Enables Guilt-Free Shower Indulgence

Trend Hunter has featured stories about showers that kick you out or remind you to conserve water. So how about an environmentally sustainable water conservation shower that allows you to indulge as long as you want without wasting water? Bring it on, I say!

The Quench Shower system allows you to take longer showers while saving up to 82% water and 87% energy. How does it do it? The showering process is divided into two parts: the first part is a regular shower mode where you soap up, shampoo and rinse off. Once you rinsed off the soap, you press a button for auto-mode showering which involves building up a reservoir of clean water that you can continuously use for as long as you want. You can dynamically control the temperature of the water on the fly and enjoy a relaxing guilt-free long shower.

The system comes in many designs and can be customized to your liking. I love long showers, so I prefer this solution to the one that kicks me out!

There is a dog grooming bathing apparatus that is similar. They used it in the mobile dog grooming vans. I think this could be a hit if it had some sort of filtration system for psychological reasons.
