Smart, Safe, and Inclusive Showering for Every User

The AKW SmartCare Plus 8.5kW Shower is designed to deliver maximum independence, comfort, and safety for users of all abilities.

Key Features and Benefits

Adjustable, Removable Shower Head
The 3-mode shower head is easily adjustable to suit multiple users and is removable for assisted showering, making it ideal for carer-supported use.

User-Friendly Control Layout
Power, temperature, and flow controls are all closely grouped for intuitive access. Raised tactile symbols assist those with visual impairments, while large push-buttons enable effortless operation for users with limited dexterity.

Eco-Flow Mode
An integrated eco-flow option optimises water usage without compromising performance, reducing water waste and supporting more sustainable living.

Integral Hose Retaining Ring
This built-in safety feature prevents the shower head from being dropped or becoming contaminated by securing the hose in place during and after use.

Smartphone App Control (iOS & Android)
The AKW SmartCare Plus Shower App allows full remote control of temperature, flow, and other functions. Ideal for users who need assistance, as carers can manage the shower via their smartphone or tablet.

Visual and Audible Feedback
Clear LED indicators show temperature and flow settings, while built-in audible cues provide additional feedback for visually impaired users.

Anti-Glare Matt Finish
The soft, matt finish minimises glare, reducing visual confusion and making the shower easier to use for those with dementia or cognitive challenges.

Load-Bearing Riser Rail
The riser rail can support up to 150kg, offering added stability for users who require physical support when standing or transferring in and out of the shower area.

Optional Bluetooth® Remote Control
An optional wireless remote allows the shower to be controlled from up to 10 metres away, providing added flexibility and safety for carers and users alike.

Quick and Easy Installation
With a retrofit-friendly design, the SmartCare Plus covers the footprints of most manufacturers’ models. It works with existing cable and pipework, eliminating the need for re-tiling and reducing installation time.

Built-In Safety Features
Thermostatic control prevents sudden changes in water temperature, while phased and automatic shutdown features protect against scalding and flooding if the shower is accidentally left running.

2-Metre Anti-Kink Hose
The extra-long, flexible hose is ideal for seated users and for assisted showering, offering greater reach and ease of movement.

Rounded, Safe Design
All edges and surfaces are softly rounded to minimise injury risk in the event of a fall.
