How does the Sloan® 111 ESS improve restroom hygiene?

The Sloan® 111 ESS uses an infrared sensor system that delivers touch-free operation and reduces user contact with restroom surfaces. This design helps minimize contamination risks in public washrooms and improves sanitation standards in high-traffic environments.

For projects managed by Deluxe Plumbing Supplies, touchless systems are commonly selected for modern commercial facilities because they support hygiene-focused restroom designs and improve user experience. Touchless technology is also associated with Sensor technology, which is widely used across modern building systems.

Why is hardwired operation better than battery-powered systems?

Hardwired operation eliminates the need for battery replacement and provides uninterrupted performance. Facilities with continuous use benefit from stable power delivery without maintenance interruptions.

Benefits include:

  • Continuous operation
  • Lower maintenance costs
  • Reduced battery waste
  • Long-term reliability
  • Better suitability for commercial facilities

This makes it an ideal option within commercial Flush Valves systems where long operating hours are required.

Where can the Sloan® 111 ESS be installed?

The flushometer is designed for demanding commercial and institutional spaces.

Common installation environments include:

  • Airports
  • Hospitals
  • Universities
  • Shopping malls
  • Government facilities
  • Hotels
  • Office towers
  • Mosques
  • Transportation terminals

Facilities that experience heavy restroom traffic generally benefit from sensor-operated solutions.

What makes the exposed top-inlet design practical?

The exposed top-inlet design simplifies installation and maintenance activities. Service teams can easily access the valve body and internal components without major wall modifications.

Advantages include:

  • Faster installation
  • Easier maintenance access
  • Reduced service downtime
  • Lower long-term operating costs

Many commercial plumbing engineers prefer exposed configurations for large-scale projects.

How does the brass construction increase durability?

The valve body is manufactured using corrosion-resistant brass designed for long-term use. Brass materials can withstand moisture exposure and demanding restroom environments.

Performance advantages include:

  • Corrosion resistance
  • Vandal resistance
  • Extended service life
  • Reduced replacement frequency

Brass construction is frequently used in Plumbing systems because of its durability and reliability characteristics.

Why is the Sloan® 111 ESS suitable for high-traffic facilities?

Heavy-use facilities require plumbing products capable of maintaining consistent performance throughout repeated daily operation cycles.

The Sloan® 111 ESS supports these environments through:

  • Sensor activation
  • Continuous hardwired power
  • Durable construction
  • Water-efficient flushing
  • Minimal maintenance needs

Large facilities often prioritize operational reliability when selecting restroom equipment.

How does the manual override feature provide backup operation?

The manual override button allows flushing during maintenance or temporary sensor-related interruptions.

This feature provides:

  • Emergency functionality
  • Service testing capability
  • Maintenance flexibility
  • Operational continuity

Backup functions are useful in commercial and institutional facilities where restroom downtime must remain minimal.

How does this flushometer support water efficiency goals?

Water-saving flush options help reduce unnecessary water consumption while maintaining performance.

Potential sustainability benefits include:

Water Efficiency Benefit Impact
Reduced water usage Lower utility costs
Controlled flushing cycles Less water waste
Sustainable building support Improved efficiency objectives
Long-term savings Reduced operating expenses

Many modern buildings integrate water-efficient systems as part of environmental strategies.

What industries commonly use sensor-operated flushometers?

Sensor flush systems are frequently used across multiple sectors.
