Residents of Toronto love their city, but especially now with the emergency of COVID-19, they don’t want the germs of public places making their way into homes or businesses where they can live on various surfaces. Installing touchless kitchen faucets and bathroom faucets has significant benefits for keeping germ transfer to a minimum, and off of surfaces. Here’s why you need to consider installing touchless faucets in your home or your business.
Easy to Use
There are many different models of hands-free faucets you can purchase – some will be better suited for home while others are tailored for use in a business setting. You can also select from a range of features on the faucet, everything from just simply turning on the water to being able to change the temperature. Once it’s installed, you just move your hands in front of the sensor to turn on the water, and you’re immediately washing your hands! Installing one of these can easily be a weekend project for your family, or if you need multiple faucets for business purposes or you’re simply not comfortable with DIY, you can contact D. Jason Plumbing to come in and make the installations for you.
Lower Utility Costs – Touchless Faucets
With these kinds of faucets, the water only turns on when hands move in front of the sensor, telling the water to start flowing. This means that as soon as there aren’t any hands moving in front of it, telling it to turn on, the water will shut off. Sometimes taps are left running, but with a touchless faucet, you never have to worry – it automatically shuts off. You’ll see the savings on your water bill!
Best Sanitary Faucets
This is the biggest, and likely most important reason to consider switching to a touchless faucet. Now, more than ever before, it is incredibly important to make sure we are washing our hands and keeping the transfer of germs to a minimum. With COVID-19, the virus can sit on some surfaces of your home for a couple of days, so minimizing the number of surfaces you need to touch to wash your hands when coming home is helpful in preventing the spread of the virus. The hands-free option is also helpful when preparing meals that involve touching raw meat, so you don’t have to turn on taps after coming into contact with food.
Installing touchless faucets in your Toronto home or business is an easy upgrade, and in return, you’ll be able to experience a greater amount of both convenience and safety. The COVID-19 pandemic has helped to emphasize the importance of cleanliness and has made us all more health-conscious.
