Technology has unfurled its real emerging effects across the wide spectrum of the industry. Smart home technology is one of the finest of them. These trailblazing technologies have embarked on the bathroom faucets and created a remarkable user experience.
Tech-based Solutions Encompassed in Bathroom Faucets
This era is regarded as the epitome of modern luxury living which was fuelled up by the touch of technology. Modern living spaces represent a dynamic blend of economic activity, cultural richness, and growing populations, establishing them as the epicentres for real estate expansion. In the past few years, the designs and innovation in bathroom faucets has been really commendable.
In the current scenario, the possibilities for enhancing a superior bathroom experience are limitless. Modern solutions include touch activation systems, water monitoring technologies, time-based automatic line flushing, integration with Building Management Systems (BMS), and voice activation features, among many others.
Modern faucets come with sensors which have a multitude of benefits in our modern lifestyle. It maintains hygiene by reducing the chances of transmitting germs with touchless operations, saves water, and is hassle-free. A temperature control system with LED indicators helps in maintaining a certain temperature according to the weather of the location.
Top 5 Reasons to Choose Smart Faucets over Traditional Ones
Comfort in Convenience
When you are investing your hard-earned money in decorating your home, it should be effectively convenient, which adds the necessary comfort. The smart faucets offer various features like temperature control which can be adjusted while bathing or washing faces, which is impossible in traditional faucets. It has auto-cleaning technology that cleans the inside of the pipeline and saves it from rust. It can also deter limescale and soap scum build-up, and its voice command automatically stops the water flow which saves time and money.
Energy Efficient
The motion-activated feature automatically activates the water flow only when necessary, thus preventing unnecessary water wastage and consequently lowering the energy needed to heat the water. By shutting off the flow by smart flow control technology, it helps in conserving the water, thus contributing towards a greener environment.
Take Care of Hygiene
In public places like healthcare centers, restaurants, hotels, and public washrooms, the traditional faucets are frequently touched by numerous individuals, which raise the chances of spreading of germs and bacteria. In contrast, if those are replaced by smart faucets equipped with sensors that detect usage without requiring physical contact, the combination of touchless activation and antimicrobial materials such as copper would help to minimize germ transmission.
Unparalleled Sophistication with Luxury
The sleek, modern, and classic unmatched range of designs can easily make your bathroom shine and complement your personal style and décor. The smart faucets with LED lights change color based on the water temperature, adding a fun and unique touch to the bathroom. Smart faucets come with a variety of customizable spray settings, allowing users to easily switch between rainfall, mist, or invigorating massage modes exclusively tailored to fit personal preferences and moods. All the features are nowhere to be seen in traditional faucets.
Smartly Synchronised Washroom
The Internet of Things (IoT) technology enables the creation of smartly connected bathrooms or ‘Smart Bathrooms’. This allows for the management of large properties across multiple buildings and areas. Stakeholders can remotely access and control the system, enabling them to adjust settings, initiate or stop line flushes, monitor battery levels, generate personalized reports, and configure alerts/notifications as required.
The Bluetooth connected faucets and flushometers helps to monitor health and status of your fixtures, easy generation of diagnostic reports and offers a quick access to technical data of the product.
The applications which can be operated from your smartphones are designed to guide about any kind of preventative maintenance before if any issue arises. By identifying the necessary parts in advance, repair time can be reduced. This increased visibility into required replacements allows customers to plan more effectively.
Bluetooth-connected products empower maintenance staff to identify potential issues early and make timely adjustments. As a result, property managers improve their operational efficiency while customers enjoy enhanced services. Many reputed faucet brands modify sensor ranges, customize timeout settings, troubleshoot problems efficiently, and swiftly find solutions. Moreover, programmed line flushes maintain clear lines and ensure user safety.
Experience Sustainability in Smartness
Water efficiency and conservation has become crucial elements in eco-friendly design, construction, and product selection. In India, more people are adopting sustainable products and solutions to increase awareness about water scarcity. Report says that, buildings account for roughly 25 percent of global water usage. However, by incorporating water-efficient fixtures, this consumption can be decreased by at least 30 percent.
Customers have the ability to produce analytics for seasonal and event-specific use, as well as data supporting sustainability initiatives. Certification bodies such as LEED, WELL, Green Globes, among others require diverse reports for their evaluations. This information is essential in establishing future objectives since prioritizing sustainability and health hygiene is quite essential.
How to Choose the Rightly Functional Faucet for Your Bathroom?
Whether it is a modern minimalist bathroom or a luxury aesthetic one, bathroom fixtures and faucets play a crucial role. Whenever you are designing or decorating your washroom or bathroom, always make sure that each of the fixtures complements each other and collectively offers a peaceful and relaxing environment, because the bathroom is the place where your body can surrender itself to a rightly warm water flow that wipes out the daylong fatigue and tiredness.
So, before designing a washroom you have to keep few pointers in mind to discuss with clients or the owners to enhance the functionality and aesthetic beauty of the place.
Check if the client wants to be aerated, luminar, or any other variety of outlets.
Types of basins also needs to be kept in mind, along with the types of mounting, whether it is wall mounted, tap hole, or deck mounting. Also check the colour and finishes.
Why Smart Faucets are the ‘Need of this Hour’ for society?
The first instances of using hands-free faucets were noticed in the 1970s. The piece of the device was known as the ‘proximity faucet’. Later, these electronic faucets gained widespread popularity by 1985, following successful tests at Chicago's O'Hare Airport, which familiarized Americans with automatic faucet technology.
Since then, technology has brought us towards highly advanced sensing technology that utilizes digitally calibrated electronics to automatically adjust for environmental conditions. This innovation helps prevent false starts and ensures operational sensitivity while adapting seamlessly to a range of sink sizes, shapes, and finishes. These technologies transformed the typical and traditional faucets into automatic faucets which are cost effective as it reduces electricity bill, water bill, is sustainable as it saves water, offers aesthetic look, and is highly functional.
In this fast and busy lifestyle, people tend to get unmindful and forgetful which can lead to misuse of wealth and resources. That’s the reason these smart faucets have become the homeowners’ first choice, because they want 24/7 access and an enriched web-based interaction and experience.
Last Note
According to global reports, the global faucet market is estimated to be around $30-35 billion, out of which the sensor market is around 4-5 percent. India is way lower than this percentage, so India needs to push itself more in this ever-evolving industry. The World Health Organization's Health Aspects of Plumbing Report says well-designed plumbing systems are essential for guaranteeing their efficiency and safety. Surprisingly, over the past five years, a rapid adoption of new technologies was noticed within the construction sector, particularly in plumbing, in terms of products, designs, and processes. This presents an excellent opportunity for the entire industry to enhance skills, innovate further, and ensure customer satisfaction.
