Product details

Automatically diverts cold water that would otherwise go to waste as you are waiting for the shower to heat up. The cold water runs through a separate hose and can be collected in a bucket.

Once the water temperature reaches 32°C, the water automatically diverts to the hand shower.

The collected water can be used, for example, to flush toilets or water plants.

Diverter hose clicks perfectly into the removable shelf in BERGVATTNET bucket, so it stays in place. Bucket with the bucket shelf sold separately.

Reviews

Reason for being blueAnonymous reviewerThe reason for it being blue in colour is to distinguish it from white/cream coloured wall tiles, shower base etc so that anyone with a visual impairment can identify it clearly. It's the same with the other bathroom fittings for this series of bathroom goods. Able-bodied people don't think of disabilities they just think everything should be 'normal' but 'normal' doesn't work for everyone. Well done to the designer and IKEA for putting such thought into what they design and stock.5
Works well to save waterAnonymous reviewerThis was easy to install and works well saving water while the shower is heating up. The matching bucket fits on the corner of the bath next to the shower and saves up to a watering can full of water a day. The only thing that could be improved is if the colour was white or something neutral to blend into the bathroom instead of bright blue.5
