Showerloop went into deep hibernation from covid which resulted in our team splitting up. Thanks to past donors that keep the website alive. There have been so many contributors to the project and I love all of them, but ultimately it wasn’t enough to keep me on the project.
If you want to contribute to the future of Showerloop please be in touch with me. Jason.selvarajan@gmail.com.
If you’re working on your own project and would like some consultation, I’m available for 100e/h <- to keep the website up.
Showers are great, but pouring hot and almost drinkable water down the drain is not. Besides the obvious costs to the environment and your bills, there is also a conscious on unconscious psychological cost any time you create waste. To solve this problem we created Showerloop. It's a shower that collects, cleans and reuses the water in real time while you are showering. So now you can shower for as long as you like but with a reduced ecological impact.
