Yes, RainStick adds a small amount of heated fresh grid-supplied water that refreshes the loop and keeps the heat warm as it circulates.

RainStick uses over 80% less water per shower session. To put that number into perspective, a traditional 10-minute shower in North America uses approximately 100L of water and RainStick uses approximately 15 litres. Because the system circulates and cleans in real-time, you're less worried about turning off the tap while shampooing.

Additionally, we are also not dependent on what the grid supplies and can boost the flow rate because of circulation. A traditional shower has a flow rate of 1.8-2.2 GPM (depending on the municipality) and RainStick's is approximately 3 GPM.

A WIFI Connection is not mandatory but we do recommend using WiFi for the full user experience of RainStick. When not connected to WiFi, some key features such as remote software updates, descaler replacement cycles and the ability to track water and energy savings will not be available.

A power connection is required to operate the RainStick Shower.

Not yet, but we are looking into making different versions for different applications. Stay tuned to see what is coming in the future. Be among the first to know, sign up for our newsletter here.

Yes, a virtual assistant (Alexa or Siri) allows you to turn RainStick on. Our RainStick app allows you to monitor maintenance, temperature control and water savings.

RainStick water goes through a 3-stage process that removes larger hair and debris and even kills bacteria and viruses.

The 3 Stages

1. Through the use of a micron filter, larger debris, including hair and dirt, is removed.
2. RainStick continuously refreshes with a tiny amount of hot water to cleanse the loop of shampoo and soap.
3. For redundancy purposes, an intense, long-life UV-LED is used, which disinfects water from any bacteria or viruses from the shower. The system does not store water in-between sessions.

At any time, you can also select the traditional shower mode if cleaning the shower stall or washing a pet for example.

Firstly, stop peeing in the shower ;) RainStick has two modes (1) circular mode where water recirculates through the system and (2) traditional mode where water goes directly from the showerhead down the drain. In both modes, RainStick continues with 3-stage cleansing that includes UV treatment to address bacteria and viruses, a 200 micron pre-screen and continuous hot water to refresh the loop in real-time.

No, RainStick uses fresh grid-supplied water for every shower. When your shower is done, water goes down the drain. RainStick does not store water in the system between sessions and the system automatically cleans itself in between sessions.

No! Every user gets fresh grid-supplied water for their shower. Once you're done, the water goes down the drain and the system undergoes an automatic cleaning cycle that sets up for the next user.

For our limited 2022 production run, we are offering a brushed nickel and matte black finish.

RainStick arrives inclusive of all of the necessary components for a high-flow shower experience including the appliance, a showerhead and a sub-floor reservoir.

Yes, there is a 2% sloped grade. The lowest point in the installation needs to be at the base of RainStick. That is where we pick up the water in the provided catchment reservoir as well as the drain stack. Please see our step-by-step installation guide here or reach out to us at pro@rainstickshower.com.

Plumbing for the product is contained within the appliance itself. A hot/cold supply along with a 120V electrical connection is all that's required at the back of RainStick.

The system has UL certification. Many of our sub-components are also individually certified.

If your house is built slab on grade, that shouldn't be a problem. When RainStick is installed, the drain or the "sewer stack" will need to be positioned at the foot of the appliance and the shower stall will require a curb.

Having a water software will not affect the functionality of your RainStick Shower.

If a non-essential component fails, the shower will continue to operate with a slightly reduced functionality. If a part of the system that enables circulation fails, the recirculating function will be turned off and RainStick will go into conventional showering mode.

The standard warranty is 2 years on the system and a lifetime on the finish.
