>>219324324>Electric showers, commonly known in Brazil as "chuveiros elétricos" or colloquially as "suicide showers" due to their design, are standard in most Brazilian homes but pose risks if installed incorrectly or not maintained>Accident Frequency: In 2023, there were approximately 800 accidents in Brazil related to electric showers, resulting in 48 deathsNobody implies zero.

>>219324450>The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission and safety organizations report that about ~400 people are electrocuted annually in the United States, and a significant portion of these electrocutions occur in or around homes (e.g., household wiring, appliances, DIY electrical work).>Based on older CPSC discussions and safety compilations, around ~200 electrocution deaths per year have been attributed specifically to incidents in homes, though exact yearly counts can vary by source and reporting method.>https://gitnux.org/electrical-safety-statistics/Electricity can kill, we have a genius here!

>>219324616a properly installed electric shower won't kill anyone. show me one instance where a properly installed electric shower has killed someone.electrical accidents can happen anywhere, especially if a favelado don't know what he is doing
>>219323940it makes sense in that it is the most efficient and cheapest way to heat shower water with electricity the way we do it is more complicated and expensive unless you take into account that our water is also solar heated so the tanks make sense.the main issue is so many of these look sketchy af and as a kid ive always been told to never use anything 220V around water because water+electricity = bad times.

Reports indicated a record 759 deaths from electrical accidents in 2024, with about 40% of accidents relating to overhead power distribution and many occurring in households.Also:>More than 70% of Brazilian homes are equipped with electric showers, a staple in the country since the 1930s due to low costs,, high popularity, and convenience. Furthermore, 99% of Brazilians take at least one shower per week, with many showering multiple times a day due to the warm climate and cultural focus on cleanlinessImagine the death rate if you all had showers.
