How fast does RinWaJet pay for itself?
Choose your country.
RinWaJet pays for itself after only 14 hours of use!
Households in Iceland don't pay for water per m³, so the saving comes from heating the water.
Recommended retail price in Iceland: 9.439 ISK incl. VAT.
Compared with an ordinary shower hose for the same rinse time, with warm water heated from 8 °C to 38 °C by an electric water heater. Hours are total time with the water running.
After that, the saving keeps going. RinWaJet is made of SS304 stainless steel, with no moving parts and no O-rings, and is built to last.
