About This Project
Overview, mission & core vision
Overview

AquaSave is an AI-controlled smart shower system that captures, filters and recycles up to 70% of shower water in real time through a closed-loop purification unit โ€” dramatically cutting household water consumption and utility bills with zero compromise on shower experience.

๐Ÿš€
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ Problem
A single shower uses 60โ€“80 litres of clean water โ€” globally 10 billion showers are taken daily, wasting 700 billion litres of treated drinking water. Hyderabad faces severe water scarcity with supply cut to alternate days in many zones
โšก
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ Solution
AquaSave captures shower water at the drain, runs it through 4-stage nano-filtration in under 4 seconds and reinjects it at shower temperature โ€” saving 56 litres per shower
๐Ÿค–
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ Market
$12.4B global water conservation technology market growing at 9.2% CAGR โ€” home water recycling is an emerging Rs.4,200Cr market in India alone
๐ŸŒฟ
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ Traction
28 pilot installations across residential apartments in Hyderabad โ€” average water saving of 64% measured over 6-month trial, Rs.2,400 average monthly bill reduction per household
๐ŸŽฏ
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ Revenue Model
Rs.85,000 installation unit sale + Rs.800/month AquaFilter subscription for replacement nano-filter cartridges delivered to door every 3 months
๐Ÿ”’
๏ฟฝ๏ฟฝ Use of Funds
40% manufacturing scale-up, 30% filtration technology patents, 20% plumber partner network, 10% water quality certifications

Features
Core capabilities & functionalities
6 Features
โœ“
4-Stage Nano-Filtration in 4 Seconds
Captured shower water passes through sediment pre-filter, activated carbon filter, nano-membrane filter and UV sterilisation in under 4 seconds โ€” exiting cleaner than municipal tap water before being recirculated
โœ“
Real-Time Temperature Matching
AI thermostat reads recycled water temperature and heats or cools it to match your set shower temperature within 0.5ยฐC before reinjection โ€” zero cold water surprises during recycling cycle
โœ“
Live Water & Cost Savings Display
Waterproof display panel in shower shows litres saved, money saved and CO2 emissions avoided in real time during every shower โ€” gamified monthly challenges in the app
โœ“
Automatic Filter Health Monitoring
AI monitors filter performance across all 4 stages continuously โ€” alerts you when nano-membrane efficiency drops below 95% and automatically orders replacement cartridge if on subscription
โœ“
Water Quality Sensor Dashboard
Six embedded sensors measure pH, turbidity, TDS, bacteria count, temperature and flow rate every second โ€” full water quality report available in app after every shower
โœ“
30-Minute DIY Installation
AquaSave connects to existing shower drain and water supply lines using standard plumbing fittings โ€” no wall breaking, no tiles removed, installs under the shower tray in 30 minutes with included toolkit
โœฆ
Key Advantages
Why this project stands out
6 Advantages
โš ๏ธ
Predicts Failure 72 Hours Early
Vibration, current and temperature analysis detects developing faults in motors, cables, brakes and doors 72 hours before breakdown โ€” maintenance team replaces failing component during scheduled downtime instead of responding to a breakdown with passengers trapped
๐Ÿ›—
Zero Passenger Entrapment
Pilot buildings using LiftLog reported zero passenger entrapment incidents over 18 months versus industry average of 2.3 entrapments per lift per year โ€” most impactful safety metric for residential society facility managers and liability insurers
๐Ÿ“Š
Compliance Certificates Auto-Generated
LiftLog generates IS 14665 statutory inspection data automatically โ€” maintenance records, safety check logs and performance metrics formatted for lift inspector submission, reducing compliance documentation effort from 4 hours to 4 minutes per inspection
๐Ÿ”ง
Clamps On Without Stopping Lift
All LiftLog sensors install on existing cable, motor and door mechanism externally โ€” no lift shutdown required for installation. Full sensor suite fitted and live within 4 hours of installation team arrival with residents using the lift throughout
๐Ÿ’ฐ
Reduces Maintenance Cost by 45%
Predictive maintenance replaces scheduled maintenance โ€” parts replaced only when wear is detected, not on calendar schedule. Pilot buildings reduced annual lift maintenance expenditure by 45% while improving reliability and safety simultaneously
๐Ÿข
Multi-Lift Building Dashboard
Building manager app shows health status of all lifts simultaneously โ€” colour-coded risk dashboard, upcoming maintenance schedule, energy consumption per lift and month-on-month reliability trend for AMC renewal negotiations
๐Ÿ—บ
How It Works
Step-by-step process & workflow
6 Steps
01
Schedule Installation
Book certified AquaSave plumber through app โ€” installation team arrives with all components, tools and waterproofing materials. Assessment and installation takes under 30 minutes
02
System Connects Under Tray
AquaSave compact unit (45x35x20cm) sits under shower tray connecting to existing drain outlet and cold water inlet line โ€” no tiles touched, no walls opened, fully concealed
03
App Setup & Preferences
Download AquaSave app, connect to home WiFi and set your shower preferences โ€” temperature, pressure, recycling intensity level and monthly saving goal
04
Shower Normally
Turn on shower as usual โ€” AquaSave activates automatically when it detects water flow. Recycling begins silently 8 seconds into shower after initial rinse water is discarded
05
Watch Savings in Real Time
In-shower display shows litres saved ticking up in real time โ€” gamified challenges keep family motivated to take shorter showers and maximise savings
06
Auto Filter Subscription
AquaSave monitors filter health automatically โ€” replacement nano-cartridge arrives at your door before old one expires. Install in 5 minutes by clicking new cartridge into slot

Technology
Tech stack & innovation
6 Technologies
๐Ÿ”ฌ
4-Stage Nano-Membrane Filtration
Proprietary nano-membrane with 0.001 micron pore size removes 99.99% of bacteria, viruses, heavy metals and dissolved solids from shower water โ€” same technology used in hospital water purification systems
โ˜€๏ธ
UV-C LED Sterilisation
Medical-grade UV-C LED chamber delivers 40mJ/cmยฒ UV dose to recycled water stream โ€” destroys 99.9% of remaining microorganisms including chlorine-resistant pathogens in under 0.3 seconds
๐ŸŒก๏ธ
AI Temperature Control System
Predictive thermal control algorithm reads incoming recycled water temperature and pre-heats in 0.8 seconds using inline heating element โ€” maintains set temperature within ยฑ0.5ยฐC throughout shower
๐Ÿ’ป
6-Parameter Water Quality Sensor Array
Custom sensor board measures pH, turbidity (NTU), TDS (ppm), E.coli proxy, temperature and flow rate simultaneously at 1Hz โ€” AI flags any parameter outside safe range and switches to fresh water instantly
๐Ÿ”„
Closed-Loop Pump System
Brushless DC pump moves 12 litres per minute through filtration loop โ€” whisper quiet at 28dB, consumes only 45W making the system net-energy positive vs water heating savings
๐Ÿ“ก
WiFi + BLE Smart Controller
ESP32-S3 controller manages all filtration, pump, heating and sensing systems โ€” connects to home WiFi for app control and cloud data logging, BLE for in-shower display communication
