Several years ago, Utah State University in Logan installed
automatic flushing units in a number of administration and classroom buildings.
Automation helped keep the washrooms clean and fresh, but the infrared-activated
flushers had a high failure rate and required frequent maintenance.
The university decided to replace the flushers with AutoFlush units from
Technical Concepts. The units used cam gears instead of solenoid valves,
protecting all electronic elements from corrosion caused by moisture. The units
also had fewer parts than several other brands, and were powered by standard
alkaline batteries that lasted up to three years.
The initial units were installed on toilets and urinals in three separate
high-use buildings and tested for 60 days. More were purchased to replace the
less-reliable flushers in several buildings.
More recently, Utah State also purchased automatic faucets from Technical
Concepts. The company uses the same propriety Radius touch-free technology in
its AutoFaucets that it developed for its flushing units and its OneShop soap
dispensers.
While the faucets were in trial, a new five-story inn on the campus was near
completion. The contractor had chosen a different brand of automatic faucet in
the bathrooms serving general areas. The faucets were poorly installed and were
not delivering the right temperature of water, so the university’s plumbing
department replaced all of them with AutoFaucets.
