Smart Shower vs. Digital Shower: What’s the difference?

NEW PRODUCT LAUNCH - Aqualisa launches the UK’s first voice activated shower - Optic Q
The new Smart Optic Q puts showering at the cutting edge of home automation – but the sophisticated technology remains simple to use for homeowners, who just want their desired shower experience at a single touch. With connectivity comes efficiency and with the intuitive and practical Aqualisa app, you can monitor the duration, water usage and cost of your shower from your smart phone or device, to optimise performance, if you choose.
In our homes, we’re faced with hundreds of choices - from what appliances to buy, to what toiletries and cleaning products we use. All of these can have an impact on the world around us.

We are delighted to announce another ground breaking product innovation from the company that invented safe thermostatic showers and the digital shower category.
Understanding the difference between concealed showers and exposed showers is simple. An exposed shower is when the valve of the shower is mounted on the tiles and is in view. On the other hand, a concealed shower places the valve and any pipework beneath the tiles where it is not seen.
But how do you know which type to choose? Read on to learn the pros and cons of concealed and exposed showers.
The right shower always available at the right price! This is the commitment behind our new trade range, the AQ Collection, which offers simple, stylish and affordable solutions for every bathroom. Featuring bar valves, single lever and dual lever thermostatic mixer showers, the versatile new collection offers more choice at great value with the same ease of installation.

The beauty of an electric shower is that it only heats the water being used, saving money on heating. It is a convenient option for a second bathroom because electric showers don't require hot water from a tank. It is always ready. The only plumbing required is a cold water feed.
Digital showers are the latest innovation for the bathroom, offering sleek design and precise temperature control, but how do these smart showers work? We've put together a jargon busting blog to explain just how simple a digital shower is and why it is a great addition to any bathroom.
