Air-Powered™
Technology
High-performance showers, re-engineered to use less water, less energy, and reduce carbon.
Benefits of Air-Powered™ Technology
Traditional showers rely on high water flow to create pressure – Kelda takes a different approach.
Air-Powered™ technology combines water and air to deliver a powerful spray at low flow, helping reduce hot water use, energy consumption, and carbon emissions.
The result is a water-efficient, energy-efficient shower that maintains performance while supporting more sustainable homes.
Tested in high-demand environments such as the London Aquatics Centre, the technology has consistently demonstrated reductions in water and energy use, with strong user feedback across both residential and commercial settings.
Invigorating Experience
Kelda’s Air-Powered™ showers produce droplets 2.5x larger than standard showers with 15x more impact. Creating the experience of a strong shower while using up to 55% less water.
Sustainable Showering
At just 4.5 litres per minute – less than half the water of a typical shower – we cut water, energy and carbon use by 55%.
Eco-friendly, efficient, powerful, and the only showers to be recognised within SAP and RdSAP.
Affordable Showering
A family of four on a metered supply could save around £420 per year by switching to a Kelda shower.
In high-use commercial settings, savings scale quickly, with many seeing a return on investment within three months.
Hot Water System Design
Reducing water use boosts whole-system efficiency, lowering size, cost, and maintenance. In new builds, smaller hot water cylinders can make heat pumps and WWHRS more effective and sustainable.
Kelda Air-Powered™ Showers: Powerful, Eco-Friendly, Low-Flow
Kelda’s Air-Powered™ showers use over 10 years of innovation to create water-efficient, energy-saving showers without compromising luxury.
Our patented system injects air into the water stream, producing droplets 2.5× larger with 15× more impact, all at just 4–5 litres per minute.
Unlike standard aerating showers, which only mix air with water, Kelda’s technology uses digital fans and microprocessors to deliver a high-velocity, full-coverage spray. The result is a sustainable, low-flow shower that saves water, cuts energy, and gives a premium experience.
Why It Matters
Reducing water use is only part of the story.
Hot water is one of the most energy-intensive elements in a building. By lowering demand at the source, Kelda’s Air-Powered™ technology cuts both water use and the energy needed to heat it.
- – Up to 55% reduction in water, energy, and carbon
- – Up to 86% reduction with ASHP or WWHRS
- – Lower overall system demand, easing pressure on cylinders and heating systems
This point-of-use efficiency boosts whole-home or building performance and aligns with the Future Homes Standards. Investing in this technology today helps developers deliver sustainable, future-ready homes that appeal to eco-conscious buyers.
Future-Ready Showers for Every Environment
Kelda’s Air-Powered™ technology delivers high-performance, water- and energy-efficient showers across a wide range of settings, including:
- – Residential developments and new-build homes
- – Hotels and hospitality
- – Gyms and leisure facilities
- – Student accommodation
By reducing water and energy demand at the point of use, without compromising spray performance or comfort, Air-Powered™ showers lower running costs, cut carbon emissions, and improve overall system efficiency.
They provide a sustainable, future-proof solution that meets evolving expectations for water and energy efficiency, making them ideal for high-use and eco-conscious environments.
