How does the Bidet Shower Pod work?

It works by filing the pod with water and after a few repeated pumps, pressure generated inside the pod drives the water out via the handheld stainless steel sprayer. Maximum pressure will allow for up 2.5 minutes of continuous outflow before it requires a re-pump.

How does the Bidet Shower Pod compare with a bidet toilet seat?

Apart from the BSP being more affordable, free-standing and portable, essentially the BSP is much more directionally controllable than a bidet toilet seat.

 

 

 

 

How long does the water last before it requires a refill?

This will depend on how often and for how long it's used. But generally, the BSP should easily last between 1-2 days for an average family before needing to be refilled.

 

How will the Bidet Shower Pod save me money

Research (Statistica) has shown that by using a bidet in the UK, a typical family can reduce its use of toilet tissue by up to 75%. Therefore, if you normally spend £10 on toilet tissue each month, you would save up to £90 per year (that's £7.50 x 12 months). That means you'll save more than your initial outlay in under a year. We would consider this to be a good investment.

Will my water bills increase?

No, if you consider the fact that on average you're only using 5 litres of water every 1 or 2 days (based on a family of three). An average modern toilet cistern flushes between 5-6 litres per flush, the increase in your water consumption should be at best a decrease and at worst stay the same.   

Can it be used outdoors such as when camping?

Yes, as the BSP is light, durable and portable, it can easily be used when camping and anywhere else between.

Can the Bidet Shower Pod be used for Wudhu (prayer ablution)?

Yes, the BSP was designed with Muslims in mind and can most certainly be used for wudhu by attaching the end of the hose to the pump handle and lifting the sprayer lever upwards for handsfree functionality (see website video).

Can it be used to groom my dog?

Yes, if it's good enough for humans, it'll be good enough for grooming your pet.

Can it be used to rinse-out my child's potty?

Yes, the jet of water flow from the BSP can be made strong enough to quickly clean out a child's potty.

Can it be filled with warm water?

Yes, the pod can be filled with warm water up to the maximum fill level indicated.

In addition, there is a Neothene Insulation Suit (sold seperately) that will keep the water temperature in the pod warmer for longer.

Is the Bidet Shower Pod designed for anyone to use?

Yes, the BSP is essentially designed for men and woman of all ages. Particularly menstruating & pregnant women, the infirm and persons with mobility issues.

Is the Bidet Shower Pod safe for children to use?

Yes, it is safe for children to use. However, to prevent the possibility of young children playing with and misusing the device, it is a good idea to completely depressurise the pod when not in use. This will prevent it from working until it's repressurised.

 

Is it worth upgrading to Bidet Shower Pod from my old ‘water jug’ that I've used for years?

Yes; not only will the BSP look better, it’ll avoid accident spills and eliminate the need to do multiple jug refills each every time someone needs to answer the call of nature.

Is the water outflow from the sprayer overly pressurised and uncontrollable?

No; the BSP is not overly pressurised. The water outflow is completely controllable and dependant upon amount of pressure that has been pumped into the pod and in addition, the sprayer's has a gradual lever for ultimate controllability. In other words, the water’s outflow pressure is adjustable to the user's preference.

Does it need regular maintenance?

No; the BSP need virtually no maintenance at all. Clean by wiping over all parts with just a damp cloth. Overtime, depending on how hard or soft the water is in your area, your may need to disassemble the sprayer and soak it in a limescale removing solution for about 10mins a couple of time a year in order to maintain a strong and clear water spray, that's it.

Does it have a warranty?

Yes; you’ll get our 12 month warranty on every unit and accessories.
