摘要

The invention relates to a shower installation for effective recovery of heat from shower waste water, preferably in sports and recreation facilities, public health facilities and also sanitary complexes of military buildings, and can be put into practice in a simple way both for reconstructions and for new building projects. The aim and object of the invention consists essentially in that, on the one hand, utilisation of the thermal energy from the shower waste water is achieved at minimum production and material cost and, on the other hand, simple and also maintenance-free technical possibilities for detecting leaks occurring at the heat exchanger are provided. According to the invention, for this purpose a shut-off valve 6 is arranged in the inlet pipe 11 for the cold fresh water K leading to the heat exchanger 2 in such a way that, both when the shower is in use and not in use, only a low static pressure load and gravitational pressure load is exerted on the heat exchanger 2. In addition, a monitoring or signalling device 17 with a visual display possibility for leaks resulting at the heat exchanger 2 is integrated in the flow region between the shut-off valve 6 and the shower head 4 in which no further shut-off member is installed.
