Toto EcoPower Review




We all go into public restrooms and use electronic sensor faucets, toilets, and urinals. They are remarkable devices that turn on faucets, and flush toilets and urinals for us without us having to touch anything. In addition to improving our health by helping to lessen the spread of germs on our hands these automatic devices actually help keep restrooms cleaner and reduce maintenance costs. Many companies make these sensor devices and most require either low voltage power supplied to them or, batteries to supply power to them for the sensor to operate and the solenoid valve that opens allowing water to flow.

Toto EcoPower offers a unique sensor line that uses the flow of water through the device to spin a turbine while the water is flowing to generate power which not only powers the device while it is being used but also charges a capacitor which runs the sensor between uses saving the back up battery from being used. Just 10 faucet uses per day will allow the back up battery to last up to 19 years. The long battery life will help to keep batteries out of the waste stream lowering amounts of cadmium and mercury in addition to saving water by only running water when it is being used.
