New smart technology is changing bathrooms. Many people now want smart showers instead of traditional ones. These showers have features like touchscreens and voice activation. They let you control things like water temperature and music with your voice. Smart showers are becoming very popular.
One reason for this popularity is that voice activation is easy to use. You can start the shower without using your hands. This is helpful for people with mobility problems. Some brands, like Moen, connect with devices like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant.
However, smart showers can be expensive. For example, a Moen Smart Shower costs over $1,000, while another brand, Kohler, is around $517. You might pay more for other parts needed to install them. Traditional showers usually cost between £20 and £200.
Installing smart showers can be difficult. You might need a professional to help. Repairs can also be more challenging. Many buyers do not pay more for homes with smart showers, but they may see them as a luxury.
