Euphoria by Grohe

Say goodbye to scalding sprays and icy blasts. Euphoria keeps temperatures under control, even as water pressure fluctuates, with its CoolTouch thermostat. The system consists of a 12-inch shower head (programmed with soothing PureRain) and a hand shower that offers a massage setting and luxurious yet water-conserving stream.

Rainstick Shower

The Canadian start-up RainStick is riding a wave of water efficiency. Its Wi-Fi-enabled system saves 80 per cent of the energy and most of the water of an average set- up — it uses five to eight litres, compared to the typical 100 for a 10-minute shower. The company promises that it does all that while providing almost double the flow.

Available in myriad metallic and black finishes, the pleasingly graphic Hi-Fi Eclectic multifunctional shower control collection recalls — and is named after — the keys and knobs of classic stereo systems. Its thermostatic mixers have push-button functionality and can modulate everything from spray type to temperature.
