Restrooms in public places or buildings with a large number of users often face problems with unpleasant odors and forgetting to flush the urinal after use. Automatic flush valves have become the answer that many organizations choose because they help with cleanliness, hygiene, and the image of the place.
Initial cost vs. long-term maintenance costs
Initial cost
The price of automatic flush valves may be higher than the standard push-button type, but what you get is automatic infrared sensor technology with pre-flush and after-flush systems that clean the toilet bowl both before and after use.
Long-term maintenance costs
Push-button flush valves often have problems with the push button breaking or becoming damaged due to frequent use, requiring repairs and replacement of parts. Automatic flush valves, on the other hand, do not have a push-button, so they have less wear and a longer lifespan.
Save time for housekeepers and cleaning work
The housekeeper does not need to constantly check whether the user has pressed the flush button because the system will work automatically every time. This helps reduce cleaning time and the use of deodorizing agents in the long run, making it cost-effective for building owners.
Reduce button repairs
In a heavily used bathroom, the flush button is the most prone to failure. Frequent replacement increases both the cost of spare parts and repair labor. However, automatic flush valves have no parts to press, significantly reducing repair costs.
Conclusion: Are automatic flush valves worth it?
Although installing an automatic flush valve has a higher initial cost than a push-button type, in the long run, the consistent cleanliness , reduced cleaning time , and reduced maintenance costs will save your organization money and maintain a modern, clean image at all times.
