NEW SLOAN ECOS(tm) FROM SLOAN VALVE COMPANY IS THE INDUSTRY'S FIRST ELECTRONIC DUAL-FLUSH FLUSHOMETER FRANKLIN PARK, IL - Sloan Valve Company has recently released another first in water-saving technology. The new Sloan ECOS(tm) is the first Dual-Flush Flushometer of its kind, combining hands-free operation with a state-of-the-art, water-saving dual-flush feature that provides the ultimate in water savings and hygiene. The battery-powered Sloan ECOS features two buttons on top of the valve, which offer restroom users two water-efficient flush options: Push the small green button for a reduced flush of 1.1 gpf/4.2 Lpf for liquids. Or push the large chrome button to initiate a standard 1.6 gpf/6.0 Lpf flush for solids. If the user does not depress a button, the Flushometer's Dual-Flush Smart Sense Technology(tm) takes over and automatically initiates a flush cycle, based on how long the user remains in the sensor range. Users who stay within the sensor range less than a minute activate the reduced flush; users who stay longer activate the full flush. Exhaustive research and extensive field trials have proven the Dual-Flush Sensing Algorithm to be a reliable and efficient method of controlling flush volume. In addition, advanced state-of-the-art sensor technology eliminates false flushing to further ensure the water efficiency of the product. Each Sloan ECOS Flushometer comes with two easy-to-understand etched metal instruction plates for placement near the Flushometer. Sloan Valve Company is the world's leading manufacturer of water-efficient plumbing systems and has been in operation since 1906. Headquartered in Franklin Park, Illinois, the company manufactures plumbing products for commercial, industrial and institutional markets worldwide.
