Nebia Shower Head Will Save Up To 70% In Water
Basically what it does is that it breaks down water into tiny drops with a surface area 10 times larger than your regular shower. “More water comes in contact with your body leaving your skin feeling clean and hydrated”.
But what is it about Nebia’s shower heads that have made Silicon Valley execs so keen to part with their cash?
Google might have the Nest Smart Thermostat, but Tim Cook’s got a smart shower, thanks to a recent investment by Apple’s CEO in a new environmentally-friendly shower company. “If we can cause a change there through a better experience, then we can really do something powerful”.
The Nebia, instead, “blasts a steamy mist with the force of a miniaturized jet engine”, according to one review by a naked journalist. Nebia declined to say how much money it had raised. In an interview with Mashable, Winter said simply that Cook offers “very thoughtful feedback on the product and on building a long-term company”. Other investors include Michael Birch, Y Combinator and the Schmidt Family Foundation.
Nebia is a project is years in the making.
Since October, Nebia has tested prototypes of the shower head inside locker rooms in some Equinox gyms and on the campuses of Apple, Google and Stanford University.
Apparently, Nebia’s revolutionary new shower kit can reduce the amount of water used by up to 70 per cent.
It’s easy to see why tech giants want to fund the Nebia.
Now it’s an interesting piece of technology and so far it has managed to exceed its funding goal of $100,000, but if you’d like to contribute to it, hit up its Kickstarter page where a pledge of $269 will nab you the Nebia shower system upon its successful production.
