Utilizing a smartphone app and Bluetooth technology, Eva has sensors that monitor time in the shower, water temperature and water flow. It can save 50% of water usage in every home!
For
instance, if you turn on the shower and are still busy in the bathroom,
when your ideal temperature is reached Eva shuts the water flow off
until you actually get in the shower. Waiting just 30 seconds for your
shower to warm up can equal a gallon of water wasted! Or let's say for
example a woman is shaving her legs or shampooing her hair and she
steps away from the shower head, the sensors will detect that and the
shower flow will ease, while still keeping you nice and warm. When you
are directly underneath the shower head again, wetting your hair or
rinsing off soap, Eva sets your water flow to 100%...providing you with a
strong water flow right when you need it.
Eva is super easy to install fitting right between the wall and your shower head. You can even set goals for how long you want your showers to last and Eva will alert you if your time is running over.

I had a chance to interview Torry Tayenaka to learn more:
Low flow shower heads are a great way to reduce waste but the most effective is to have shorter showers- it's a basic step but can make a huge difference.
Why was Eva created?
Eva
was created because there is no effective smart technology being used
to save water in the shower (one of the largest use of people's water
every day.
What are the advantages it has over other products designed to help save water in the shower?
The
main thing Eva is providing is a smart and enjoyable shower
experience. Other water saving devices change the way people shower
either with unenjoyable low pressure, levers and switches that the user
needs to remember to use and interupt their shower. Lastly
by having the tracking and social abilities we believe we can inspire
further water conservation outside the shower just by building out users
awareness to water usage and waste.
What are some other ways to save water while showering?
