Like most, we’re driven by a set of beliefs that evolved from our own experiences, behaviors and observations.  From an ideological perspective we’re neither left nor right – neither environmental zealot nor corporate polluter. 

We do our best to recycle, but other than aluminum can and beer bottles we couldn’t really tell you what should and should not be tossed into the recycle bin.

We’re trying to drive a little less, walk a little more and combine shopping trips to be more efficient, but we own our fair share of SUVs.

We want to save water, but there are times (more than we’d like to admit) when we forget and leave the faucet running while shaving or brushing teeth.

We think we’re pretty much right down the middle, normal everyday folks - probably not too different from most of you.

 Now that you have an idea of where we’re coming from, let’s circle back to those beliefs we were talking about. We believe …

		There is a growing desire by everyday people to live more environmentally aware lifestyles.
		Using innovation and technology is better and more effective than asking for sacrifice and behavior change as means of saving water and energy.  For example, don’t ask people to give up their SUVs, offer them an affordable hybrid SUV instead.
		Successful eco-friendly products will win in the marketplace because they have superior quality, design and features.  In other words they thrive because they are simply great products, not solely because they are better for our environment.
		Eco-friendly products will be widely adopted by mainstream consumers if they are inexpensive to purchase, easy to install, convenient to use and offer quick payback times.  For example compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) on the whole have the ability to save more energy than solar panels. Why?  Because CFLs are economical, perform well and can be put in by anyone in just a few seconds.

This in a nutshell is why we set out to create our ShowerStart™ technology and our evolve line of eco-friendly showerheads. We wanted a way to save time, water and energy without having to make sacrifices or behavior changes. You see, we figured that many people were probably a lot like us in their morning routine – really busy running around to get out of the door on time. So to save a little time we typically turn on the shower and sneak away to do something else while waiting for the water to warm-up.

We brush our teeth, use the toilet, make our beds, we even hug our kids … When we get back to the shower it’s warm and ready … but how much hot water just accidentally ran down the drain?  Even a little adds up to be a lot.  Losing only 1 minute of hot water per shower can mean an additional $75 in utility bills and 2,700 gallons of water wasted per year – and that’s for a family of three.

ShowerStart™ technology changes that equation because it watches the shower’s temperature and “triggers a trickle” as soon as the shower is warm enough to jump in.  This prevents your hot water from inadvertently running down the drain before you can hop in the shower. Not only have you eliminated the water and energy waste, but the sound of the trickle tells you that your shower’s ready.  The hot water for your shower is now warm and waiting instead of warm and wasted.

Our ShowerStart™ technology was a good start, but it was only that, a start.  To be a practical water and energy conservation tool it needed to be built into a superior line of showerheads.  And that’s how evolve … well …evolved.

A low quality, bad looking showerhead would never do.  We wanted great style and luxury features such as maximum flow rates, drenching spray patterns, anti-clog spray nozzles and solid brass fittings – and it had to be well priced too.  That’s what we wanted for ourselves.  Why should you have anything different?

With evolve showerheads you can select from a wide variety of styles– all with premium features and affordable price points. 9 spray pattern hand showers, evolve has it.  Large format rain showerheads, evolve has it. Increased convenience with sacrifice-free water and energy savings, of course, evolve has that too.

We hope you enjoy our technology and products as much as we do and we’d love to hear your comments.  Email us at customerservice@evolveshowerheads.com or call us – 480-496-2294.

And thanks for joining us on our journey.  It’s been fun to say the least and creating ShowerStart and evolve has made each of us a little more “green”.  Some of us are “greener” than others. For some, ShowerStart was a way to finally get a little “green”.  “Light green”, “green”, “dark green” … it doesn’t really matter. They’re all shades of same color.  The important thing is to make the choice, take action and pick the shade that works for you. 

As for our company’s future?  We are committed to bringing conservation into the mainstream by continually creating convenient, simple and user friendly products to save water and energy without asking users to sacrifice personal comforts. Expect to see more.

PS – We just completed a new product we never thought we’d create – an evolve showerhead that’s lower flow.  We know, we know … you thought we were adamant about not sacrificing personal comforts.  No worries, we remain 100% committed to conservation without sacrifice and we honestly can’t believe how incredible this showerhead, we call it the Roadrunner, actually is.  With a flow rate of 1.59 gpm, the Roadrunner uses 36% less water than our standard showerheads, but it feels absolutely incredible.  In fact, when we tried out the Roadrunner for the first time we seriously thought there must have been a manufacturing mistake because it felt like a standard showerhead. We tore the units apart to check the flow.  They were indeed flowing at 1.59 gpm.  We started laughing and grinning ear to ear.  It could be done - a low flow showerhead could actually feel great and look great too.  But the test was not over.  We had to sneak the Roadrunner into showers throughout our homes to see what our wives, family and guests had to say.  Would they enjoy the shower as much as we did?  Would they be able to get the shampoo out of their hair? The verdict came in and it was a unanimous YES. So we cranked up the production line and the Roadrunner showerhead is now available to you.  Click here to sneak a peek.

PSS – The Roadrunners have stayed installed.  We manufacturer showerheads so we can have just about anything we want.  What are we using?  The Roadrunner! 
No kidding.
