Faucet Buddy is a faucet accessory that measures and displays the amount of water used, as well as the temperature of the water.
Faucet Buddy is attached to the faucet to provide useful information to the user: it records and displays both the amount of water used as well as its temperature. Being able to keep an eye on the amount of water used helps the user to save water. The user is also able to check the temperature of water without touching it. This prevents scalding, especially in young children. If the user is equipped with wireless communication equipment, such as the cell-phone, the amount of water used per day, month and year is able to be downloaded and checked.
Faucet Buddy works automatically when the water is discharged. There is no need for any additional operation to work it. Faucet Buddy is designed with a built-in hydraulic motor, which does not require batteries to run. Installation is easy, the product is maintenance-free, and the user will not be faced with the problem of water-leakage into the mechanism |
