Picture the home bathroom of the future. Does it include automatic appliances, sleek design and increased efficiency? With modern innovations and the rise of "smart" homes, you can have the bathroom of the future today. Here are some of the best ways to improve your bathroom.
The Pipes
The pipes may not be what you first think of when creating your dream bathroom, but "smart" pipes can result in significant savings on your water bill. All it takes is adding one of our Nest or SmartThings sensors under a sink or near your water heater to monitor your water usage. This can isolate leaks and other problems before they lead to a larger bill or water damage. It can also help you determine which appliances are using the most water, so you can modify your habits for additional savings.
The Toilet
The toilet has not changed dramatically in the U.S. over the past few decades. However, innovations from Europe and Japan are slowly making their way here. New features include overflow protection, heated seating, a foot warmer and even Bluetooth capabilities - all available without breaking the bank. One of the most popular new features is one that everyone in your home will likely enjoy: the self-cleaning toilet.
The Shower
The shower has always been a leader in bathroom innovation, but today it's easier than ever to create the customized shower experience of your dreams. New technology allows you to control all aspects - temperature, spray, stream, audio and lighting - from a remote or panel. Even better, each user can save their preferences on the same device. That means everyone in your home can enjoy their own personalized shower experience at the touch of a button.
With all the new technology available, now is the time to upgrade to a smart bathroom. If you're ready to renovate, call David Gray Plumbing at (904) 605-8190.
