GROHE launches Rainshower SmartActive, a new hand shower

With the launch of its most advanced hand shower to date, Rainshower SmartActive from GROHE brings to the market a quick and easy solution to creating the enjoyable, relaxing and high-quality shower experience that is expected from hotel bathrooms…

GROHE Rainshower SmartActive 130 Shower rail set with 3 shower sprays and GROHE EcoJoy technology. Fitted with Grohtherm SmartControl shower mixer

Thanks to smart functions and intuitive operation, users are ensured absolute shower enjoyment that can be tailored to their individual needs or mood which is of high value in hotel bathrooms, adding to the sense of uniqueness and luxury that visitors really appreciate during their stay.

In addition, there is minimal installation work required as the Rainshower SmartActive can be purchased with a matching shower rail that can be easily affixed using existing drill holes, making it an easy retrofit solution to instantly upgrade your hotel’s guest rooms or spa facilities without requiring a considerable amount of time, work or investment.

Thanks to two new technologies, the GROHE Rainshower SmartActive hand shower is the most innovative hand shower to date in the GROHE product range. Equipped with GROHE SmartTip control, a simple fingertip on the rear of the ergonomically designed hand shower is enough to intuitively switch between three spray modes. In the centre of the shower head, round and star-shaped jets provide a powerful ActiveMassage spray. Meanwhile, the Jet spray is perfect post-workout or when the user is feeling tired as its invigorating spray can give the body a completely new sense of energy, whilst also being great for rinsing shampoo thoroughly and quickly too. However, if a gentler, softer water pressure is preferred, the circular arranged nozzles mimic a gentle rain shower.

Aside from a choice of luxurious spray patterns designed to personalise the shower experience, GROHE has also integrated its DripStop feature into the new hand shower design. Often, guests visit a hotel as a quiet and luxurious retreat from the stresses of everyday life. This new technology, therefore, works as a preventative measure in hotel bathrooms by eliminating the unnecessary annoyance of a dripping shower which can be quite disruptive when attempting to relax and unwind. This feature also makes the GROHE Rainshower Active hand shower a more eco-aware alternative to standard models.

Perfect for adding a touch of luxury and indulgence to the shower space, the Rainshower SmartActive is compatible with almost any shower system and available in 130mm and 150mm sizes, 12 colour finishes and a round or square design. This means it can be seamlessly integrated into any existing bathroom décor for a cost-effective upgrade that will transform the shower experience. For projects seeking to completely refurbish the shower space, the Rainshower SmartActive perfectly complements head showers such as GROHE Rainshower 310 SmartActive or Rainshower 310 Mono, Rainshower Bodysprays as well as concealed thermostats or the innovative GROHE SmartControl shower control.
