GROHE Launches SmartControl Shower System
Intuitive push-button system provides enhanced
personalization to the shower experience
New York, NY (August 1, 2016) ― GROHE, the world’s
leading single-branded manufacturer and supplier of kitchen
and bath fittings, continues to spearhead innovation with the
launch of GROHE SmartControl—a shower system
featuring push-button technology that provides a new level of
customization to the shower experience.
GROHE
SmartControl Shower System
GROHE Rainshower™ SmartControl uses a double button design
allowing the user to control and set all desired shower
settings. A combined push-and-turn button starts the flow of
water and controls water volume. The textured edges of each
button mean the user can easily control settings even with wet
fingers. All controls are marked with symbols for
intuitive operation, making this modern shower system easy to
use.
GROHE SmartControl is also equipped with GROHE TurboStat®
technology, a metal thermostat handle that delivers preferred
water temperature to the user within fractions of a second and
keeps the temperature consistent for the duration of the
shower. A SafeStop button prevents users from inadvertently
raising the water temperature to more than 100
degrees Fahrenheit and GROHE CoolTouch® technology removes the
risk of scalding by preventing the exposed metal surfaces from
heating up.
“The shower has evolved into one of the most indulgent moments of
the day, and GROHE SmartControl elevates the everyday shower
into a luxe experience that can be personalized for any user,”
said Maha El Kharbotly, chief marketing officer for LIXIL Water
Technology Americas. “The system is in keeping with GROHE’S
approach to leveraging innovation to dial up the design
and functionality of today’s home environment.”
For added convenience, the top of the control unit serves as a
shelf for shampoo, shower gel and other body care products.
Made of safety glass, the tray can be detached for easy and
thorough cleaning – another fine example of user-friendly
functionality packaged into an intriguingly futuristic
design.
