AccessPRO Toilet: Achieve accessibility standards with less time, cost Relocating a toilet to conform to accessibility standards is easier and less expensive with the new high-efficiency AccessPRO toilet from American Standard. Its unique design allows up to 3-1/2 inches of lateral adjustment of the toilet bowl to the right — or to the left when used with the left-hand bowl — without changing the floor flange outlet location. The AccessPRO can successfully flush 2.2 pounds of waste while using a water-saving 1.28 gallons per flush. This earns it WaterSense certification from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency for providing high performance, while consuming 20 percent less water than standard toilet models. CHECK OR CIRCLE #102 For its new Metris and Focus kitchen lines, Hansgrohe developed faucets, which boast sound ergonomics, intelligent functions and high-quality design, ensuring that the joys of cooking start at the kitchen sink. Designed in collaboration with Phoenix Design, the body of the fixtures emerge from a gently rounded square base and taper upward in pyramid fashion before curving neatly into a circular spout. This signature "SoftCube" design complements the rect- angular shape found in many sinks. Extended surfaces of the long, ergonomically shaped handle offer plenty of contact area for hands and fingers, even elbows, making turning the faucet on and off and adjusting the temperature easy and convenient. CHECK OR CIRCLE #100 Hansgrohe faucets boast sound ergonomics, intelligent functions NEW COMMERCIAL FAUCET FEATURES INTUITIVE TEMPERATURE CONTROLS Sloan introduces the Senso electronic hand-washing faucet, which delivers a unique, illumi- nated rainfall pattern of water and provides intuitive controls for a highly tactile and visual experience. The faucet, intended for high-end commercial environ- ments, offers a refined balance of elegance and efficiency. A welcome light invites restroom visitors to begin washing. Visitors may set the water hotter or colder by adjusting the faucet's feather-light touch sensors, which are lit with red or blue LEDs to indicate temperature. The rainfall water flow is also illuminated and shuts off auto- matically when hands move out of the sensor range. CHECK OR CIRCLE #103 WALL-MOUNTED BATH FAUCETS COMPLEMENT VESSEL, RECESSED SINKS Designed for both contempo- rary and transitional décors, KWC AVA and KWC ONO Wall- Mounted Bath Faucets feature single-handle operation for a cleaner look and a more con- venient operation. The slim contours of both faucets house the latest tech- nology, including a ceramic disc cartridge for more precise control of flow and temperature, an optional temperature lim- iter and a fully integrated Neoperl Caché aerator, for a water- saving flow rate of 1.5 gallons per minute. Both faucets are undergoing testing that, when concluded, should enable them to earn the Environmental Protection Agency's WaterSense label. CHECK OR CIRCLE #104 FRANKE UNVEILS PLANAR 8 SERIES OF HAND- FABRICATED, ITALIAN-MADE KITCHEN SINKS The new Planar 8 Flex Semi-Professional Kitchen Faucet from Franke features sleek, contempo- rary designs that fit in any mod- ern kitchen décor. Available in chrome or satin nickel, the Planar 8 kitchen faucet is CSA certi- fied and meets the lead-content requirements of NSF/ANSI 372. Made primarily of solid brass, the new faucet is equipped with a ceramic cartridge for leak-free operation. Its one-jet, lock-in- place spray head connects to a covered, stainless steel spring hose that facilitates easy, comfortable movement around the sink. The faucet spout rotates 360 degrees in either direction, which allows placement of the handle on either the right or the left side. CHECK OR CIRCLE #105 Semi-recessed sink added to Gerber line Gerber Plumbing Fixtures has added a unique semi-recessed sink to its line of vitreous china products for the bath- room. The North Point sink, designed to partially set into a countertop, provides a larger lavatory to maximize the use of space while using a small footprint. The sink features a modern design perfect for smaller bathrooms and light commercial uses. The sink's semi-recessed configuration blends the best attributes of pedestal sinks (streamlined style and limited space requirements) with more traditional bathroom vanities (deck space and simple storage). Available in white, the sink can be built into vanities that provide compliance to ADA requirements, making it a universal product for many applications.
