Abstract:
1. A shower water conversation apparatus (SWCA) that functions in combination with a hot water source ( 124 ), a cold-water source ( 126 ), a manual hot-water valve (V 5 ), a manual cold-water valve (V 6 ) and a shower head ( 122 ), said SWCA comprising: a) a water reservoir enclosure ( wherein said water reservoir enclosure is fabricated of a thermoplastic material, b) a water reservoir assembly ( wherein said bellows is fabricated from a material selected from the group consisting of silicone-fiberglass, neoprene-coated nylon, neoprene-latex and polyurethane, wherein said bellows has a square or a rectangular shape, c) a coiled pipe ( wherein said coiled pipe ( wherein said coiled pipe is further comprised of a continuously coiled, clear flexible thermoplastic resin material having a nominal diameter ranging from 0.375-inches to 0.5-inches (0.95 cm to 1.27 cm), d) a first vertical pipe ( e) a first horizontal pipe ( f) a second horizontal pipe ( g) a second vertical pipe ( h) a third vertical pipe ( wherein said first solenoid valve, said second solenoid valve, said third solenoid valve and said fourth solenoid valve (V wherein said vertical and horizontal pipes are made of a material selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl chloride a thermoplastic resin and polystyrene, and i) a wye-pipe fitting ( j) a timing circuit ( k) a power supply ( wherein said power supply further comprises: a) an input circuit comprising a utility power source that provides 120 volts a-c, at a frequency from 50-60 Hertz, b) a step-down power transformer having a primary winding that is connected to the input circuit and a secondary winding that supplies 24 volts a-c, at a frequency from 50 to 60 Hertz that is connected to said timing circuit, said first solenoid valve, said second solenoid valve, said third solenoid valve, and said fourth solenoid valve (V a temperature gauge that is located in series with the vertical pipe that extends from the bottom of the wye fitting.
