*This calculation example is based on the following parameters: Household of 4 people using 6 minutes of shower time, 2 minutes for basin mixer and 1 minute for kitchen mixer per person per day. The costs are based on the following estimate: Energy cost £0.34 /kWh, water cost £0.0014/litre. Assumption of flow rates: Old product flow rates: 15 l/min for shower, 8 l/min for basin mixer and 12 l/min for kitchen mixer. New product flow rates: 7.5 l/min for shower, 5 l/min for basin mixer and 9.5 l/min for kitchen mixer. New basin/kitchen mixer equipped with GROHE SilkMove ES energy saving functionality. GROHE does not guarantee the accuracy and correctness of the results, as the calculation depends on many unforeseeable factors and is therefore non-binding. In particular, it depends on water and energy prices, consumer behavior and the technical installations on site.

GROHE offers water saving technologies for both taps and showers making it possible to save up to 50 % of water consumption without compromising on comfort. By using a flow limiter, the water flow of e.g. a tap can be reduced from 10 litres per minute to just over 5 litres. An aerator provides the same voluminous experience as that offered by a regular tap, meaning the user experience is still the same.

Did you know that saving water means saving energy? We often use hot water without realising it. The consequence is that we waste hot water and therefore the energy in heating it up. This causes higher bills and higher carbon emissions. This is why GROHE's cold-start technology, SilkMove ES, is the right solution: Cold water is only provided when the lever is in the middle position, making warm water a conscious decision.

REDUCING THE WATER CONSUMPTION WITHOUT COMPROMISING ON COMFORT

To reduce water consumption by up to 50%, a flow limiter is used, which reduces water consumption at the washbasin from 10 litres per minute to just over 5 litres, or in the shower from 15 litres per minute to 7.5 litres/minute.

PREVENTS UNNECESSARY WARM WATER USAGE

Energy-saving cold-start technology SilkMove ES is a clever and simple game changer: In the middle lever position only cold water is provided. This prevents unnecessary hot water consumption and therefore saves money.

GOODBYE TO TEMPERATURE FLUCTUATIONS AND WATER WASTAGE IN THE SHOWER

Our thermostat technologies help to save water and energy on different levels. GROHE thermostats impress with steady comfort temperatures, individual settings and optimal convenience.
