The Bank of America Tower stands as a beacon of environmental innovation in downtown Houston. Opened in 2019, this 35-story office and retail building is not only a LEED Platinum-certified structure but also one of just three facilities in the U.S. to serve as a benchmark for LEED v4 standards.
At the heart of these efforts is Sloan technology, seamlessly integrated into the facility’s design to extend sustainability into the restrooms. By incorporating durable and water-saving Sloan products, the building exemplifies how thoughtful, efficient design can create measurable benefits for both the environment and its tenants.
One of the key challenges facing eco-conscious buildings is ensuring that restroom fixtures can handle the rigorous demands of using reclaimed, non-potable water. Ordinary components often corrode or fail under these harsh conditions, leading to frequent repairs and disruptions. Sloan addressed this issue at Bank of America Tower with its Royal® 111 RW SFSM and Royal® 186 RW SFSM Flushometers, engineered specifically for reclaimed water usage.
The Bank of America Tower leverages innovative water reuse strategies to combat Houston’s water challenges. Rainwater, collected via a 24,000-square-foot green roof, is repurposed to nourish outdoor plants and meet restroom flushing demands. Sloan’s reclaimed water flushometers play a pivotal role in this closed-loop system.
Sustainability is a guiding principle at Bank of America Tower. Sloan flushometers align seamlessly with the building’s broader eco-friendly initiatives, enhancing its environmental performance while promoting transparency and accountability.
“Our commitment to sustainability led us to specify the most environmentally focused products in order to create one of the greenest buildings in the country. Sloan’s reclaimed flushometers were a major part of that effort.”
