  Smart Toilets

Smart toilets are one of the most wanted devices when people renovate their bathrooms. These toilets have features such as seat warmers, touch-free automatic lids, night lights, and even speakers. They are also more compact than traditional toilets, taking up less space. While they carry a big upfront cost, these toilets can save the homeowner hundreds of dollars by preventing leaks and using less water.

Interactive LED mirrors can display the time, weather, reminders, news updates, and more while you do your morning routine. Using AI technology, similar to Amazon’s Alexa, the mirror can also answer any questions the user may have while they get ready in the morning.

• Smart Shower

Smart showers allow the user to control their water temperature, flow rate, and shower duration without even pressing a button. Some of the main benefits of having a smart shower include safety and savings on water bills. These showers have the ability to prevent the water from getting hot enough to burn skin, making the showers very child-friendly.

Color plays a huge role in our thoughts and emotions. Chromatherapy is the use of lights to convey a mood in a person. LED chromatherapy lights can be installed in your bathroom to give you the ultimate relaxation experience. These lights come with a remote that allows the user to change the color, brightness, and intensity of the lights at the touch of a button.

Smart water assistants can be a great investment for frugal homeowners. These assistants can prevent leaks, detect leaks, and identify any hidden flaws. The system will send regular notifications of water usage to the homeowner’s phone, as well as emergency messages to let the owner know of any leaks.

• Water Recycler 

Water recyclers recycle 95% of water from showers, baths, washing machines, and air conditioners and reuse it for toilets, garden irrigation, and swimming pools. This keeps water bills low while benefiting the environment.

• Smart Washer and Dryer

Internet connected washers and dryers create the ultimate laundry experience. Smart washers and dryers can be started with a simple voice command. Users can also control their laundry cycle or monitor maintenance directly from the smartphone. These high-tech washers and dryers can also automatically sense how much detergent is needed per load, monitor energy consumption, and have the ability to auto-run cycles during off-peak hours.

• Aromatherapy Diffuser

Diffusers use essential oils to improve a person’s physical and mental health. Aromatherapy diffusers create a spa-like experience for the homeowner. The diffuser can be controlled via smartphone or voice command.
