A shower that feels full, without using more water than it needs. That's the idea behind the Besjaar Luxury Hand Shower. In this post you'll read what the hand shower does, who it's for and what's in the box.
What is the Besjaar Luxury Hand Shower?
It's a chrome hand shower with three spray settings and an extra-wide 13 centimetre head. Air is mixed into the spray, so it feels full while using no more than 8 litres of water per minute. No hose is included: you screw the head onto your existing shower hose.
Three settings, one button
- Rain: a soft, wide spray for every day.
- Massage: a firmer spray for shoulders and back.
- Power: a strong spray for when you want extra pressure.
You switch settings with one button, even with wet hands.
Why no more than 8 litres per minute?
Many older shower heads use 10 to 12 litres per minute, and large rain showers even more. Almost all of that water is heated, and that costs energy. At no more than 8 litres per minute you keep usage under control without the spray feeling weak. How much you save exactly depends on your old shower head and how long you shower. Do the maths in water-saving shower head: how much do you really save?
Less hassle with limescale
The nozzles are made of silicone. See white specks appearing? Rub them with your finger while the shower runs and the limescale comes loose. The head itself is corrosion-resistant chrome. When to descale is explained in 5 signs your shower head is full of limescale.
