RainStick uses less than 20 litres (5 gallons) while doubling your water flow.
Save up to 80% more water and energy
CERTIFIED HYGIENE
RainStick is equipped with a 200 micron filter that removes anything larger than a grain of sand. Hair, grit and other dirt particles are trapped in the mesh screen as the first step in RainStick’s cleaning process.
This filter can be easily removed and cleaned through manually removing the dirt or rinsing under the tap, similar to standard drain catchments.
CERTIFIED HYGIENE
RainStick’s cleaning process improves your water hygiene through the use of UV treatment and real-time refreshment, as well as automatic self-cleaning after every shower session using RainStick’s Original Cleaning Product. This process addresses 99.99% of bacteria and viruses, including even the most harmful of bacteria like Legionella.
RainStick has been extensively tested by an ISO-accredited laboratory, and received a rating of“Extremely Hygienic”.
Yes, it does! RainStick continuously adds a tiny amount of heated fresh house-supplied water while in operation. This refreshes each cycle and maintains the desired water temperature.
The beauty of RainStick is that it saves 80% of water with each use while offering a full-coverage rainshower experience.
To give an example, a traditional 10-minute shower using a regular shower fixture with a standard flow rate of 10 litres per minute (or 2.5 gallons per minute) will use 100 litres (26 gallons) of water. When you use RainStick in the same duration, it only uses 20-litres (5 gallons) of water at an increased flow rate of 14-litres per minute (or 3.0 gallons per minute).
While we recommend using WiFi in order to take advantage of the many features available on the RainStick app, the system can be fully operated without WiFi. When fully used with the suggested WiFi connection and RainsStick App, you have the ability to access:
- Remote software updates
- Descaler replacement cycles
- Customizable settings (water temperature, shower mode, deep clean timer)
- Performance tracking
- Water and Energy Savings Tracking
A power connection is required to operate a RainStick; similar to a standard home that uses a modern electric or gas water heater which both require electricity.
We have optimized RainStick’s technology to cleanse circulating water in three stages:
1. A micron-level screen catches large debris such as hair and dirt.
2. A small amount of hot water is continuously supplied to refresh
the loop and maintain the desired water temperature
3. A high-intensity UV LED kills 99.99% of exposed germs and bacteria.
RainStick can also be used in traditional, low flow 6.8 Litres per minute (or 1.8 Gallons per minute), shower mode.
RainStick is not a greywater system and you will never be using someone else’s water. RainStick only uses fresh supplied water at the start of each use and no water is stored in between uses. At the end of each shower, an automated cleaning session starts to guarantee that each new use is hygienic. This also prevents hard water from forming and keeps the built-in UV LED optimized.
A timer for when this cleaning session starts can be scheduled on the RainStick Shower App with 45, 60, or 90-second delay start time options.
