Visitors to Cistermiser’s stand can discover both ‘a whole range’ of existing water-saving systems and infrared controls, and ‘new product introductions’ from ‘a market leader’ in washroom control and hygiene.
Utilising infrared technology, healthcare facility washrooms can benefit from Cistermiser’s complete automation when it comes to a ‘hands-free’ approach. Using WRAS-approved technology, Cistermiser’s infrared controls provide ‘touch-free’ flushing and filling of WCs, and direct flushing of urinals, with no need for surface contact from the washroom user. The direct flush valve ensures urinals are flushed automatically after every use. With operation at the 0.5 litre minimum water level required, ‘water use is managed, and therefore costs and environmental impact minimised’. Easyflush valves (pictured) operate similarly – requiring the user to pass a hand over the sensor to trigger a flush. Full and part flush functions are integrated. Cistermiser also offers infrared taps, such as the touch-free Novatap, Novaspout, and Vectaspout, ‘to minimise the risk of bacterial transfer within the washroom, and help support the requirements of BREEAM HEA 12’. When a user’s hand is passed over the sensor, a valve opens, and water is delivered to the washbowl. A two-second delay in shutting the valve once hands are removed reduces run-on.
