Remote-controlled water closets
Times are changing fast and even water closets are making a fashion statement. A proof is the recent reports about Hollywood celebrity Leonardo Di Caprio spending more than $1,600 on a remote-controlled toilet bowl as part of renovating his home.
The Toto Neorest 500 toilet from Japan that fascinated the Titanic boy has features which minimise manual interference. “The CeFiONtect technology used in the WC precludes any possibility of bacteria remaining inside the bowl,” says Narinder Anand, the Managing Director of Value Line Trade (P) Ltd., at Banjara Hills, which deals in Toto toilet fittings in the city.
Ion barrier
CeFiONtect is the abbreviation of Ceramic Fine Ion Technology through which an ultra-smooth surface is obtained along with an ion barrier that repels dirt. As a result, the surface remains smooth and stain-resistant as long as it is in use.
The seat of the toilet opens up automatically whenever the user approaches, thanks to the sensors it is equipped with. Also available is an option to warm up the toilet seat to the suitable temperature. The use of toilet paper can be done away with, as the bowl is equipped with auto-washing mechanism by which a nozzle springs out to splash water on the rear or the front portion of the body as per the need.
As soon as the washing is done, the drier blows the body dry. Tornado, the advanced flushing system certified by the U.S. Association of Home Builders, renders the bowl sparkling by pumping the water in a uni-directional swirling action. The need of water outlets lining the rim is ruled out, thus making the bowl easy to clean.
Temperature
Apart from flushing and splashing, the remote control can perform the actions of adjusting the seat warmth, setting the water temperature and deciding the flow of water.
“This is the fastest selling model across the world. Many Hollywood actors are placing orders and a hotel in Indonesia has already requisitioned for about 1,100 bowls to be fixed in all its rooms,” informs Mr.Anand.
Soft-closing seat cover, which employs hydraulic action so as not to bang on the bowl upon being dropped by the user, is a feature common in all Toto toilets.
