# Conservation-Encouraging Shower Meters Amphiro Water Meters Measure Consumption to Deter Overuse By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2016-09-08 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-meters References: [thegreenhead](http://www.thegreenhead.com/2016/09/amphiro-water-energy-smart-meter-shower-motivator.php) & [amphiro](https://www.amphiro.com/) Those that enjoy taking long, hot showers will benefit from the Amphiro water meters to see just how much water they're using in real-time. Water scarcity is becoming a major concern for many people and locations around the world. As such, smart implementations such as the Amphiro are being created to help advise consumers on their consumption rather than keeping them in the dark about their usage. The Amphiro works by being installed into the shower; it will then go to work measuring how much water has been used and what the temperature of the water is as well. It's through this simple process that the Amphiro water meters hope to help users decrease their water use. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Water Consumption Monitoring:** Opportunity for developing innovative devices to measure and track water consumption in real-time. - **Water Conservation Solutions:** Opportunity to create technologies and products that encourage users to decrease their water usage. - **Smart Home Water Monitoring:** Opportunity to integrate water meters and monitoring systems into smart home setups for more efficient water management. ### Who This Affects Most - **Smart Home Technology:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for companies in the smart home technology industry to develop water monitoring and conservation products. - **Iot (internet of Things):** Opportunity for IoT companies to create connected water meters that provide real-time data and insights to users. - **Environmental Sustainability:** Opportunity for companies focused on environmental sustainability to provide solutions for water conservation and consumption monitoring. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Water-Saving Bathroom Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bergvattnet.md) - [Pressure-Sensitive Shower Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-shower-concept.md) - [Closed-Loop Bathing Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upfall-shower.md) - [Instantaneous Hot Water Showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heau-shower.md) - [Leak-Detecting Water Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-water-monitor.md) - [Water-Saving Shower Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alu.md) - [WiFi-Enabled Circular Showers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/circular-shower.md) - [Temperature-Displaying Shower Heads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invispace.md) - [Accessible Smart Water Monitors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-leak-monitor.md)
