Why Water and Energy Efficiency Matter
Water and energy are two of the largest ongoing operating costs across holiday accommodation, with showering representing one of the most frequent daily uses of both. The average UK household uses around 4kWh of energy every day to heat water – roughly the same as boiling a kettle around 40 times. Across an entire holiday park, that demand increases significantly.
By reducing water at the point of use, Kelda helps operators lower both water consumption and the energy required to heat it, delivering meaningful savings while maintaining a powerful, high-quality shower experience.
As holiday accommodation continues to evolve towards more sustainable, electric-only developments, reducing hot water demand is becoming an increasingly important part of overall building performance.
Independently verified by the Energy Saving Trust and recognised within SAP and RdSAP methodologies, Kelda’s Air-Powered™ shower technology gives manufacturers, developers, specifiers and park operators confidence in its proven performance. By specifying Kelda, holiday accommodation can reduce long-term operating costs while continuing to deliver the premium shower experience guests expect.
Why Showering Is an Overlooked Opportunity
While heating systems, insulation and renewable technologies often receive the greatest attention, reducing hot water demand remains one of the most practical ways to improve the overall efficiency of holiday accommodation.
Every litre of hot water saved reduces both water consumption and the energy required to heat it, allowing operators to lower running costs while supporting long-term sustainability objectives.
Why Air-Powered™ Technology?
Reducing water consumption doesn’t have to mean compromising the showering experience.
Many water-saving approaches focus on reducing the volume of water delivered. Kelda takes a different approach.
Kelda’s patented Air-Powered™ technology creates warm droplets that are 2.5x larger than standard showers, that rinse effectively while using up to 55% less water.
The result is a powerful, immersive shower experience that helps operators improve efficiency while continuing to meet guest expectations.
