If you are looking for the best sensor faucet in the market, consider some factors like ease of use, durability, and energy efficiency. The best type of sensor faucet requires little or no maintenance and offers many features.
Here are some of the best features you should consider when looking for sensor faucets.
Adjustable sensor eyes
There are two kinds of sensor eyes: adjustable and non-adjustable. The adjustable ones allow you to adjust the height and angle of the sensor eye so that it can easily detect when someone is using the water. This makes it more compatible with most people’s movements, making it more likely that they can successfully activate the faucet without having to come up close to it.
Adjustable eyes are essential because they allow you to choose how far from the faucet you want to activate the sensors. It’s essential for commercial settings because it allows you to accommodate multiple users of varying heights.
Non-adjustable sensor eyes are fixed at a certain height and angle, which means that they may not be able to detect when someone is washing their hands if that person has an unusual stance or movement style when washing their hands.
The best sensor faucets also have an adjustable range. Although commercial lavatory faucets are designed for heavy use, there are times when malfunctions occur. The most common problem is that the sensor range is set too high or too low and can’t be adjusted. When this happens, water continues to flow even after flushing. This can result in significant water waste and can cause problems with overflow valves.
Adjustable sensor range distance is an important feature in commercial sensor facets to prevent valve malfunctions. The sensor range is the distance between the sensor faucet and the user that determines whether or not the sensor can identify a hand.
You may want to consider a sensor with an adjustable range distance if you have a large sink. A sensor that is too close to your hand will trigger the faucet when you don’t want it to, while one that is too far away may not trigger at all.
Sensor faucets with adjustable range will not turn off when you are just washing your hands. The adjustable motion detector is a good feature because it saves hygienic water. It also prevents water wastage by turning off the faucet when you have already washed your hands.
Automatic shut-off to prevent faucet overflow
Sensors with automatic shut-off are programmed to shut off when they detect that they have been running for longer than the pre-set time. This feature is particularly useful for locations with high traffic and where sinks are used for hand washing.
Automatic sensors have been shown to reduce water waste by a significant percentage, which means that businesses can save money on utility bills and maintenance costs.
This type of sensor faucet is designed for ultimate water conservation, making it ideal for commercial use. You can use it in schools, hospitals, office buildings, and other places where many people use the bathroom daily.
Vandal Resistance
Having robust and resilient components is important where you can’t control how people use the faucet. Vandal-resistant faucets will resist attempts to remove the handle or spray head. You also want the parts to be durable enough to last through years of regular use, even when they are not treated kindly by customers or employees. A well-made faucets will last longer than cheaper models because it’s made from materials that won’t corrode or crack over time.
