AKW SmartCare Plus White 8.5kW with Silver/White Kit

The AKW SmartCare Plus 8.5kW is a thoughtfully engineered electric shower, designed to support both independent and assisted showering. It combines a wide range of user-focused features, including app control (Android or iPhone), alongside simple on-unit operation via raised tactile “+” and “–” buttons to adjust flow rate and temperature directly from the shower body.

The shower has also been designed to assist the installer with simple but thoughtful features such as 6 different electric and water entry points, dual power blocks for right or left-hand wiring and a footprint that covers most manufacturer models; this reduces the chances of having to re-tile if retrofitting.

For added reassurance when showering, the included 1000mm riser bar has a 150kg maximum load-bearing.
