Commercial Restroom Design Trends: Latest Industry Findings & Insights
Public restrooms in commercial buildings are undergoing a shift due to a number of societal, health-related, and technological factors. While touchless fixtures in restrooms are not new, the COVID-19 pandemic has generated greater interest in these products and the desire for an entirely hands-free experience in public restrooms. Additionally, public discourse around gender inclusivity is changing the way interior designers approach the design of these facilities, and there is a rise in more all-gender/family style restrooms in commercial buildings.
Gaining an Accurate Estimate of Water Demand in Buildings
Estimated peak water demand is customarily used to size a building’s piping system. But with Covid-19 and other pathogens, a higher demand for sensor-activated and high efficiency fixtures has increased the need for more accurate demand calculations given a large variety of water dispensing fixtures.
