People are increasingly becomingly conscious towards how they use and save natural resources, especially water. Without a doubt, water is the most precious resource on the planet, and, thankfully, technology is constantly being used in new ways to conserve it. For example, electronic basin sensor taps is a definite step in that direction, but these also offer many other benefits as well.

Widely used in commercial buildings, these taps are now being adopted by more and more residential buildings for various reasons. If someone has suggested you to use these electronic taps for your home, it’s because they care.

Here are the reasons why you should be looking at them:

Water Conservation

Whether or not water conservation is an issue in your area, an electronic basin sensor tap can help residential homes and commercial buildings save up to 70% or more off water usage. Gone are the days when you may have forgotten to close the taps completely, or simply use more water than required. With preset flow timings or the use of motion sensors, these taps shut down the water flow as soon as you are done with what you are doing. This considerably decreases the amount of water used in basin taps.

Easy to Own and Install

Unfortunately, many folks believe that sensor taps are expensive? Actually, entry-level sensor taps are only slightly more than the regular price for bathroom taps. Also, if you’re planning to get them through a company that specialises in mixer taps, you can save some money. In fact, when you think of the money that an electronic basin sensor tap will save you off your water bill each month, then it becomes obvious that these pay for themselves.

No worrying about installation either because these taps are easily installed by a plumber, and no drilling or construction is required to install them. Electronic basin sensor taps fit right in place of your existing taps, so no new parts are needed or new plumbing required.

Hygiene Friendly

Because these are sensor operated taps, no one needs to touch them to turn on the water. So, any hygiene concerns about bacteria transferring from one person to another is eliminated. Even children can safely use these basin taps without having to rotate any knobs, and there is no chance of water being left on because the advanced infrared sensor technology ensures that water flow is controlled.

Bathroom designs in retirement homes should take into consideration the special needs and sensibilities of the elderly who live in these homes. Designs for these rooms should include tubs, showers, sinks and toilets that they can use with ease, but special attention also should be placed on the ideal tapware to complement these other measures. Our company, Mixer Mate, offers thermostatic showers and taps that control the temperature limits to ensure that the water never gets too hot for the sensitive skin that older adults often develop as they age.

How Mixermate Thermostatic Tapware Helps to Create Safe Bathrooms for the Elderly

Just as safety bars help the elderly enter and exit the various features in the bathroom in a safe manner, thermostatic showers and taps prevent skin damage from excessively hot water. The elderly may not be able to feel that the water is too hot, especially if they suffer from certain health conditions, and this is where this type of tapware is useful. With this tapware, the hot water will not reach temperatures higher than 38-degrees Celsius without manually overriding the safety lock that comes on this tapware. In addition, even without the thermostatic feature the operation of the mixermate tapware is easy for the elderly since the controls work smoothly without the necessity of force.

Our Company’s Tapware Saves Water

We ensure that all of our tapware saves water during its operation. An example of this is the showerheads that we offer hold an AAA rating at 9L/m.
