# Recirculating Smart Showers Kohler Anthem EvoCycle Reuses Up to 80% of Shower Water By Amy Duong | Published 2026-05-12 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evocycle References: [kohler](https://www.kohler.com/)  The [Kohler](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kohlers-statement-ves) Anthem EvoCycle is a recirculating smart shower system designed to reduce water consumption without lowering flow pressure. The dual-mode setup operates through both a standard fresh-water mode and a cycle mode that filters and reuses shower water through a closed-loop system installed beneath the shower base. The system combines recirculated water with a smaller amount of fresh water while maintaining full-pressure output through the showerhead or rainhead. Kohler states the setup can reduce water usage by up to 80% per shower session. The system incorporates ozone sanitation, automated cleaning cycles, and [removable filtration components](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/showerhead-design) designed for repeated use. A digital interface and Kohler Konnect app allow users to adjust temperature settings, activate cleaning functions, and monitor water usage. The hardware also supports [multiple shower configurations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zucchetti-bar-59-shower), finish options, and receptor layouts for residential installations.
