AKW SmartCare Plus White 8.5kW with Silver/White Kit - OPT Accessories

The AKW 8.5kW SmartCare Plus electric shower has been designed with the user, the carer, and the installer in mind. With innovative features like being able to control the shower from the iShower app (available for Android or iPhone) or the remote control allowing added privacy for the user or the 150kg load-bearing riser rail.

The AKW SmartCare Plus 8.5kW is an expertly designed electric shower encompassing a multitude of features designed to aid with personal or assisted showering; features, such as the option to control the shower by the remote control, via an app (Android or iPhone) or the shower with the raised tactile “+” and “-” buttons for the flow rate and temperature.

The shower has also been designed to assist the installer with simple but thoughtful features such as 6 different electric and water entry points, dual power blocks for right or left-hand wiring and a footprint that covers most manufacturer models; this reduces the chances of having to re-tile if retrofitting.
