The high efficiency DECORUM™ FloWise® urinal features water-saving technology that uses only 0.5 gpf — 50% less water than a standard urinal — and meets the EPA’s WaterSense® program requirements for high performance and water efficiency. Can be used with manual or Selectronic® hands-free flush valves. ADA-compliant model can be specified as a urinal/valve system or as an individual chinaware unit.

Speedrooter 92™ offers easy handling; one person can easily load it onto a truck. Flexitube™ spring distributor tube allows the cable to feed and retract more smoothly. The machine’s frame slides smoothly from the loading wheel to the handle to the stair climbers and, finally, to the wheels. An adjustable height, swept-back handle provides maximum maneuvering leverage. Drives and retracts 3/4", 5/8" and 1/2" cables easily. Large and small drums sport a see-through inner cage to quickly determine how much cable remains. Features a braced frame at key stress points, heavy-duty 1/2-hp motor and Flexicore® cable.

Ice maker kit
www.johnguest.com
Speedfit® Ice Maker Kit consists of a low-lead angle stop adapter valve, 25 ft of plastic tubing and a 1/4" plastic compression fitting. The valve meets the NSF 14, 51 and 61 standards, making it suitable for use with potable liquids. For water supply hookup, the valve connects between the supply valve and riser to the main water supply. For refrigerator hookup, the tubing must be cut to the appropriate length, leaving an additional 6 ft of tubing behind the refrigerator. The tubing is then marked 5/8" from each end and inserted into the plastic connector. John Guest USA.


Energy-saving faucet

The AVA single-lever basin faucet with COOLFIX technology offers an ingeniously simple way to save energy. With this award-winning technology, the “six o’clock” middle position of the faucet is designed “full cold”; no hot water is delivered in this setting, saving energy each time the faucet is activated. The only way to draw warm water — and use energy — is to rotate the lever clockwise and away from the middle position. The faucet also incorporates the Neoperl® Caché® aerator, which reduces water flow to 1.5 gpm, a 40% savings over conventional 2.5-gpm faucets. KWC.


Solar pump block
www.taco-hvac.com
The Solar X-Pump Block combines a variable speed solar differential temperature control, bronze collector and storage tank circulators, and a stainless steel flat plate heat exchanger. Variable speed controls match solar collector output, increasing system performance by 20%. With just four pipe connections, the installation is complete. Can be set up to maintain a temperature differential between the solar collector(s) and up to two storage tanks, can support a booster pump as part of a drain-back system and comes with a heat dump option and freeze protection. Large LCD screen displays the amount of thermal energy harvested by the collector when optional flow meter is installed. TACO.
