March 22 is Water Day: counteracting water scarcity with innovative technologies to save water

Drought and increasing water scarcity were hot topics last year. Just in time for Water Day on March 22, we are once again taking stock - we must do something together to counteract water scarcity. Because each and every one of us can make a contribution!

The world's population is growing and with it the demand for water. In the past, water scarcity was limited to the world's dry belts and southern regions, but this problem is now increasingly affecting regions that were previously considered water-rich. In the last year in particular, climate change has also had an impact on us: Water availability has reached its limits in many Austrian regions in some cases. On Water Day on March 22, we are therefore calling for careful use of water as a valuable resource. Because everyone can do something to use water efficiently and not waste it unnecessarily.

In our latitudes, showering in particular is an enormous "water guzzler". Up to 80 liters of water are used per person every day, which is why there is an extremely large potential for savings in this area. And this is precisely where the Rabmer family business from Altenberg comes in: With the ECOTURBINO®, Rabmer offers a patented water-saving solution for the shower that mixes water with air, thereby saving up to a third of water without any loss of comfort for the user. In this way, anyone can easily and efficiently save up to 36% water and energy and make a significant contribution to the sustainable use of this valuable resource. As shower water is primarily hot water, the ECOTURBINO® not only saves enormous amounts of water, but also energy and subsequentlyCO2 due to the reduced hot water consumption. This innovative water-saving solution therefore makes an important contribution to environmental protection. And there is also a positive effect on household costs, as a family of four can save around € 240 a year with the ECOTURBINO®. By the way: if only 20% of Austria's almost 3.9 million private households were equipped with the ECOTURBINO®, an incredible 9.7 billion liters of drinking water, 124,700 tons ofCO2 and 385.5 million kWh of energy could be saved every year.

The patented technology is an Austrian innovation that saves a great deal of water and energy both in Austria and worldwide and can therefore make a significant contribution to protecting the valuable resource of water.

The ECOTURBINO® can be easily retrofitted to any shower fitting. Order now in the Rabmer online store(www.rabmer.at/shop) and start saving immediately "#Everyone can do something".
