Andy Grigor and his design team at Hai have developed a new shower head that is not only a perfect solution for the consumer, but also for the planet.
Hai has created the first smart in-home spa system designed for a new generation that values both the ritual of self-care and sustainability.
Based on intensive research with customers, the company has delivered a best-in-class shower experience that is also sustainably minded.
Using high-quality materials and available in an array of fun colors, the showerhead boasts an easy, no-tool installation.
Hai Shower was awarded a 2021 GOOD DESIGN Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
Its best-in-class spray technology offers both pressure and coverage.
The powerful Hai flow spray technology allows users to seamlessly transition from a firm, invigorating steady spray to a gentle, enveloping spa mist, and everything in-between.
Additionally, the Hai Shower has an embedded hydro-powered turbine that powers an LED light and Bluetooth technology.
The LED light notification system alerts you when the water is warm and after a certain amount of water has been used.
The Bluetooth links to a partner app, where the appropriate thresholds and notifications can be set.
This technology also allows for updates for ongoing feature enhancements.
Its smart technology allows customers to create behavioral changes that save energy and water over time by tracking usage and setting goals based on national averages.
The shower meets the most stringent water flow guidelines in the U.S. without sacrificing the user experience.
The designer’s holistic attention to detail has resulted in a design that considers technology and sustainability principles together.
Its clean, contemporary aesthetic is available in an array of custom colors to express each user’s own style.
