ABSTRACT:
A device for saving water ordinarily wasted while waiting for the hot water to come from the hot water tank prior to showering. The device consists of an elongated flexible and collapsible tube (16) of waterproof material. The tube (16) has a cuff (14) at the top and a cover (18) at the bottom. A fastening (12) attaches the cuff (14) to a shower arm (20). The cuff (14) can remain around the showerhead (22) directing water through tube (16) to the container (24) or can easily be removed from the showerhead (22) to allow user to shower. Tube (16) is sufficiently large in diameter so hydrodynamic resistance will not put undue pressure on fastening (12). Tube (16) extends through a hole in the cover (18) extending somewhat below cover (18). The cover (18) protects water accumulated in a container (24) from soap, shampoo and/or bodily contaminants.
