Three Zypho® models available
Why Zypho
- Zypho helps alleviate fuel poverty by reducing household water heating bills by 31%-82%, saving the average household £ 200 to £ 400 per year.
- The cost of showering for 30 minutes daily costs the average UK household £ 600 per year. With Zypho, this could be reduced by at least 33% through a simple bathroom modification.
By installing Zypho, we’re making significant savings. It is making a big difference to our fuel bill, and it will end up paying for itself quickly.

Daily energy usage in the average UK household
Water is expensive to heat
Second only to space heating, hot water is a massive part of the average household’s energy bill. Showering accounts for ~85% of its use.
30 min/day = £ 600/year
At current energy prices, 30 minutes of shower use per day costs around £ 600 per year. Zypho pays back quickly.
Zypho saves energy and money
Zypho shower heat recovery systems are easy to install, reduce energy bills and offer some of the cheapest additional SAP points for new builds.
How it works
Most showers send waste water down the drain at 40 °C – a significant waste of energy. With Zypho, the outgoing waste water is run against a metal coil of incoming fresh cold water. While the two streams are kept physically separate, heat passes from the waste hot to the fresh cold, effectively recycling the heat and lightening the load on the hot water generation system. The pre-heated fresh water can be directed to the shower tap, water heater, or both.
