Smart shower is equipped with a touch screen or remote control, and users can easily adjust water temperature, water flow and water outlet mode through simple operations. In addition, some high-end models also have voice control function, and users only need to speak commands to achieve corresponding operations.

The built-in solenoid valve, water return device and temperature sensor make the temperature control more accurate and the constant temperature effect better. At the same time, there is no need to pre-bury additional water channels in advance, which is highly applicable, cost-effective, energy-saving and efficient.
[0004] In the above-mentioned prior art, the "zero cold water" operation is performed by circulating and heating the pre-stored water in the pipe. The inventor has found that the shower head needs to rely on the built-in circulation pump to work continuously to maintain the water temperature in the hot water pipe, which means that the water heater is also consuming electricity and gas when it is not directly used; this continuous heating and circulation process will lead to a significant increase in energy consumption, thereby increasing the household's water, electricity and gas expenses; and an additional return pipe needs to be installed, and the installation process of the return circulation water heater is relatively complicated; for families without pre-installed return pipes, the water circuit may need to be modified during installation, increasing the installation cost and difficulty; in the absence of pre-installed return pipes, some families may choose to use a one-way valve to connect the hot and cold water pipes together as a return pipe; although this approach is simple, it is easy to cause the mixing of cold and hot water, causing secondary pollution of hot water and affecting water quality. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to solve the problem of zero cold water operation by circulating water heating in the prior art, the utility model provides a pre-drainage type intelligent shower head;

The application does not require a complicated installation process or additional equipment through the above technology. The user only needs to remotely control the discharge of cold water in the pipe before use. Compared with the return water circulation type, the pre-drainage zero cold water showerhead will not consume additional electricity and gas when the water heater is not directly used. Energy consumption is only generated when the user needs hot water, so the overall energy consumption is low. Since pre-drainage does not require an additional return water pipeline, there is no secondary pollution problem caused by water mixing. Users can use hot water more safely.
