Apparatus For Controlling Water Consumption In Bathrooms

A method of reducing or controlling water consumption in bathrooms, the method comprising the steps of:

• providing an apparatus being configured to receive data from one or more water consumption locations in a bathroom, the apparatus comprising a housing including one or more sensors, a controller, a transmitting member, and a unique identification mechanism;
• detecting a movement in a threshold distance from the apparatus in a bathroom as a first indication of activity in the bathroom by a motion sensor, detecting a sound of running water from one or more water consumption locations in a bathroom as a second indication of activity in the bathroom by an audio sensor, optionally detecting the ambient humidity in a bathroom as a third indication of activity in the bathroom by a humidity sensor and optionally detecting ambient temperature by an ambient temperature sensor;
• qualifying at least a part of the data received from the one or more sensors by an algorithm to obtain qualified data;
• transmitting the qualified data at a given point of time to an external unit, optionally via a mobile device, by low power signals;
• and
• subjecting output data based on the qualified data for reducing or controlling water consumption in the bathroom to a unique identification mechanism being readable or scannable by a mobile device.
