Chicago Faucets, released its Janitorial Service Sink Faucets brochure. The new, four-color, six-page fold-out brochure illustrates the variety of janitorial and maintenance faucets that are perfect for high-use and high-abuse applications or anywhere a dependable janitorial faucet is needed.
Incorporated into the brochure is a Faucet Comparison Guide making it easy to select the right faucet by such features as spout, finish, vacuum breaker or even service type; models are available for non-pressurized or a continuous pressure system. The brochure also points out the faucet’s importance in helping reduce the risk of backflow and contaminant exposure to potable water supplies. For example, the atmospheric vacuum breaker spout is designed for use on non-pressurized systems. When installed properly, it can provide excellent protection against back siphonage; and the pill resistant vacuum breaker spout is designed for use on continuous pressure lines and is recommended for any application with system connections or shut-offs downstream.
All faucets have Chicago Faucet’s exclusive Quaturn™ compression operating cartridges for interchangeability, ease of maintenance and repairs.
The brochure also features CFNow!™ products; janitorial and maintenance faucets that are available for shipment within 24 hours of order acknowledgement.

The Chicago Faucets 3510 Series water-conserving metering faucets were selected by BUILDINGS Magazine as a 2014 Money-Saving Product. As part of an elite group of 97 architectural products being showcased in the June 2014 issue of BUILDINGS, the 3510 Series takes its place in the Water Savings category.
The Chicago Faucets 3510 Series with a 0.5 GPM (1.9 L/min) non-aerating outlet saves water in public and semi-public restrooms. The manual mechanism features separate levers for precise water flow and temperature control. This dual-function flow design, where the top lever controls water volume and the side lever controls water temperature, allows the user to find the ideal temperature and leave the faucet set to that temperature across multiple usages. The temperature can be adjusted when needed and quickly returned to the preferred setting. Models are also available with concealed temperature control and a vandal-resistant cap for consistent water temperature and added comfort and safety.
A solid ECAST brass, chrome-plated body provides unmatched durability while meeting requirements for the reduction of lead in plumbing fixtures. The faucet is ready to install right out of the box, with pre-installed, flexible, stainless steel hoses that connect to standard water supplies and a built-in check valve.
In addition, 3510 Series faucets feature a time-tested ceramic cartridge that provides a positive on and off stop. These faucets are fully ADA compliant.

TOTO, the largest plumbing manufacturer in the world with $5.01 billion dollars in annual sales, announced today that it has installed its high-performance, water-saving plumbing products in the Corinthians Arena in São Paulo, Brazil, the home of the Corinthians Paulista soccer team. With so many visitors from all over the world using its products in the Arena, TOTO is looking forward to increased brand recognition as it continues to help contribute to Brazil’s growth and development.
“As with all major sports venue projects, the competition for the Corinthians Stadium was strong, and TOTO was evaluated against the strongest brands in the region,” said David Krakoff, President of TOTO Brazil. “Therefore, as a relatively new brand in Brazil, we were particularly proud that TOTO was chosen for this stadium, which is certainly among the finest in the world.”
The Design-Build Team for the Corinthians Arena (a/k/a Arena de São Paulo) selected TOTO’s high-performance plumbing products for their superior water-saving technology and energy-saving capability. These high- design fixtures and cover plates enhance the restrooms’ beauty with their clean, simple lines.
In the Arena’s high-traffic restrooms, engineers installed TOTO’s durable 1.9 liters per flush urinals (LPF) and 4.8 LPF wall-mounted toilets. They also installed TOTO’s water-saving EcoPower sensor flush valves and faucets, which use flowing water to power their electronics, creating a sustainable loop. There is no need for hard wiring. With as few as 10 uses a day, their backup battery will last up to 19 years, which reduces toxic battery waste. In addition, in the team locker rooms, TOTO installed it water-saving showers systems.
“The level of thought and creativity that went into the design and development of this stadium was impressive,” said Krakoff. “It was an honor to work with Mr. Anibal Coutinho, the stadium’s architect, and to participate in his highly evolved design process. It was also amazing and inspiring to see the level of dedication that the Corinthians organization had to building a facility that would offer a first class experience to every person in every seat, regardless of the seat price or location.”

“Intelligent Rain” is the name of a new brochure—and a description of the water flow from a new luxury commercial faucet—from Sloan. The brochure introduces the Senso™ electronic hand-washing faucet, which delivers a unique, illuminated rainfall pattern of water and provides intuitive controls for a highly tactile and visual experience.
The faucet, intended for high-end commercial environments such as hotels, restaurants and corporate restrooms, offers a refined balance of elegance and efficiency. The Senso faucet complements Sloan Designer Series lavatory systems, SloanStone® lavatories and other sink systems.
A welcome light on the Senso faucet invites restroom visitors to begin washing. Visitors may set the water hotter or colder by adjusting the faucet’s feather-light touch sensors, which are lit with red or blue LEDs to indicate temperature. Senso’s distinctive rainfall water flow is also illuminated and shuts off automatically when hands move out of the sensor range.
Choose from a water-efficient 0.5 gpm or 1.0 gpm multi-laminar spray. Senso’s low-voltage line power eliminates batteries.
