TOTO Vs FontanaShowers/Touchless

Touchless Faucet Spec Shorts for Commercial Projects

Bite-size video clips designed for architects, engineers, and facilities teams—covering activation behavior, ADA reach/clearance, flow efficiency targets, and protective shut-off logic in real-world restroom conditions.

These micro-demos focus on practical design questions: how quickly the faucet activates, how stable the sensing is when users move, how the unit behaves near reflective basins, and how shut-off timing supports water control. Use the reference links below to jump to ToF (time-of-flight) sensing options, low-voltage DC models, IP-rated electronics, coordinated faucet + soap configurations, and general commercial categories.
