We take a shower with the Nebia: The shower head of the future

2015-08-25
I love taking showers in fact I've taken thousands of showers my entire life so I wanted to find out what this neviah thing is all about my name is phillip winter and i'm the co-founder and CEO nebia on average Americans take about eight minutes to shower for the normal shower that's over 20 gallons of water of the nebia it's only six that's 70% less what what goes into actually atomizing this water so it uses less but also just covers your whole body I mean when we started working on this we looked at sort of other areas that we could sort of pull from and learn from in atomizing water we're leveraging sort of a technology that's been around for in some cases a century and it's always used in industrial applications and jet engines turn combustion engines and agriculture always for different purposes essentially what we're doing is is taking water passing it through a nozzle that has different geometries and creating millions of much smaller droplets and it creates a surface area of water that's like 10x a regular shower that's why you get this for a much more efficient use of water and it's very like soft sensation can you talk about you know just the mentality of there's so many iterations that we won't even see but what good what went into that process as well for you guys I mean we worked with so many different ideas and played with the idea of color and different materials and we sort of looked at everything that's in the bathroom and everything the bathroom is like chrome and it's been that way for decades and we said we could do Chrome where we can do something a little bit different and we chose anodized be blasted finish which is sort of what you see on MacBooks familiar but different in the bathroom are you guys playing with any other ideas of kind of like a deluxe edition you know as things evolved like what's going on in your minds with that additional features will be things that really add value and they'll probably be in future generations so you can track how much water you use and how much energy you use in the future we'll design the faucets so you can like pick your temperature and it just stays there you don't have to every morning sort of guess and I think that will sort of be the most interesting thing so if I like am listening and paying attention it sounds like you're alluding to like smart features built in conjunction with the Nebbia for future iterations or even the first one coming out would be to talk to them for future iterations yeah at the end of the day the proof is always in the pudding of someone actually trying to shower out we're gonna check it out but how would you describe your first nebia experience you'll see for yourself it's we always tell people look you got to try for yourself you'll get it what's up guys welcome to my shower you can see over here this is the Nebbia prototype we've seen what the final ID looks like outside and I've got to tell you I have taken thousands of showers but I have never taken a Nebbia so I want to see what it feels like I will tell you they feel like this is the softest that I've had for sure alright I gotta say we coming to this I didn't know what to expect from the shower I thought the water pressure not be strong enough but no it feels great it covers your whole body it doesn't feel like you're missing anything and I gotta say I'm super excited when the debĂ­a comes out this thing is tight though now it's warm
