November 22, 2021 by Post

The plumbing industry is undergoing tremendous growth. The major drivers of these new trends are the client’s need for greater convenience, enhanced efficiency, and environmental conservation. Whatever plumbing fixture installation you might have in mind, it is definitely undergoing radical technological changes.

To establish themselves as an authority in the plumbing industry, a plumber must strive to stay attuned to the latest trends in plumbing technology. This enables them to meet your expectations and handle any latest modern plumbing installation you might request. It is key also for you to stay updated on the emerging plumbing technology in the market. New technology has numerous advantages, as it can help you greatly in cutting plumbing costs when undertaking any plumbing project. To help you stay ahead of the curve, given below are the 11 latest plumbing technologies that you should take a keen interest in.

1.      Tankless Water Heaters

The demand for tankless water heaters is rising day by day for a good reason. This piece of plumbing technology can save you on average 400 dollars of energy charges per annum. Tankless water heaters have an edge over the old water heater models in that they heat water as it passes through them. They also have a longer lifespan of 20 years according to the Department of Energy. This is 5 years more than the average lifespan of the traditional water heater models.

2.      Re-Circulation of Hot Water

This plumbing technology enables you to always have a constant supply of hot water. The hot water recirculation system maintains the hot water supply through constant pumping of the heated water from the storage tank water heaters. This system reduces water wastage that normally goes down the drain, as you wait for it to heat up. This translates to reduced water bills and enhanced environmental conservation. Plumbers mainly install this recirculation hot water system on both tankless and storage tank water heaters.

3.      Remote Irrigation

If you are a farmer, this is a must-have plumbing technology. You can comfortably monitor the weather and make necessary irrigation changes from any location in the world. Through the use of smart meters, you can remotely modulate the moisture content of your soil. The benefits of this irrigation system can’t be stressed enough. It allows you to optimize water usage with little or no wastage.

4.      Smart Faucets

Plumbing technology is evolving at a fast pace. At the moment, there is a wide array of advanced faucets you can choose from unlike before. Some hands-free faucets now utilize motion sensor technology. Others are controlled through the use of digital voice assistance. These faucets are so efficient in that they discharge the exact amount of water required. If you have worn-out faucets in your house demanding a replacement, consider installing these smart faucets. No regrets whatsoever.

5.      Smart Water Pipes

You can now receive instant notifications on your smartphone about water leakage in your house or commercial property. This advanced water pipe technology can greatly save you potential huge losses. This is because you can swiftly call in your 24 hour emergency plumber to act on the water leakages before they cause flooding.

It is crucial to have a professional install this water pipe technology into your house. A pro will guide you on the whole installation process. This water pipe technology utilizes various devices, which measure a wide array of parameters. Some of the devices measure temperature and humidity while others measure water flow. In case of an emergency, some of the devices turn off the main water supply in your house, forestalling damages.

6.      Advanced Shower Heads

Customers are constantly seeking improvements on all plumbing fixtures. Shower heads are no exception! A smart shower head is proving to be a necessity. It allows you great convenience when taking a shower. Advanced shower heads not only conserve water but also significantly save on energy. Should they sense you are walking away, they reduce shower water. Some can be customized to your voice, and they respond immediately after you enter the shower.

7.      Gray-Water Recycling

If you are conscious of the increasing water utility bills, then the gray water system is the perfect technology for you. Not only do you conserve water with this technology, but you also significantly conserve power. The Gray-water system utilizes water mainly from laundry and showers, devoid of contact with waste. The water undergoes filtration or treatment in accordance with the respective gray-water system. The water is then reused for purposes, such as washing clothes or irrigation. Unfortunately, many people are still unaware of this technology and its innumerable benefits in reducing water bills per month.

8.      Smart Toilets

If there is a plumbing area that has seen great evolution, it is the toilet features. Advanced toilets can now accord conveniences lacking with the traditional ones.

This allows smart plumbing repairs. Your plumber won’t have to tear down a whole wall in search of the leak source. The leak detector also alerts you when a leak happens. The net effect is that you can greatly save on water bills, as leaks can greatly drive up the charges.

10.  Bluetooth Enabled Shower Heads

Do you desire to listen to your favorite music playlist while taking a shower but you can’t? This technology suits you. Advanced shower heads now have an installed Bluetooth speaker. You can then connect your smartphone to the shower head and enjoy your music while showering.
