TOTO Toilets Help Consumers Navigate the New Normal
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought a new norm to the lives of many. TOTO uses its technology to assist people in navigating this New Normal.
TOTOPIA , or "perfection" is a societal principle that is the driving force behind the Japanese company Toto. Their most recent toilet, the WELLNESSTOILET, uses cutting edge sensing technology to aid in customer health and wellness.
Water Sense Technology
WaterSense-labeled fixtures for plumbing are EPA-approved and help save energy and water while delivering a safe, reliable performance. TOTO USA is proud to be one of the first companies to earn the WaterSense label for our EcoPower flush valves as well as commercial flushometer toilets.
Our Aquia IV Dual-flush Toilet is a great example for high-efficiency bathroom fixtures. It consumes only 1.28 gallons of water for each flush. This is less than 1.6 gallons required to meet EPA standards. The Aquia IV also features TOTO TORNADO FLUSH technology which reduces bowl cleaning frequency and the necessity for additional flushes, further reducing its environmental footprint.
Another method to conserve water is by installing a low-flow showerhead, which reduces the amount of water used when washing or bathing. Our high-efficiency showerheads are WaterSense evaluated and have the modern technology to provide superior performance and comfort.
In an era where water shortages are frequent, limiting the use of water is important. TOTO's EcoPower technology, which is found in our Aquia IV toilet and our NEXUS one-piece toilet helps reduce the amount of water we use by using only 1.28 gallons per flush to remove waste.
TOTO's elongated WCs are also EPA approved for high efficiency. The elongated toilets have an elongated or round basin and an ADA-compliant 17-19 inch height. We also have an elongated and compact toilet that is ideal for smaller spaces and consumes just 0.9 Gallons of water per flush.
TOTO's bidet wands are the most popular in the market for office and home use. They are not just more cost-effective than toilet paper, they also offer better cleaning and leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. The NEXUS toilet features our EWATER+ technology, which is created by electrolyzing tap water to produce an ionic solution of sodium chloride ions and hypochlorous acid. This results in a powerful disinfectant which eliminates viruses, bacteria and other pathogens while leaving your skin, as well as the environment safe.
ADA Compliant
If you are searching for an ADA compliant integrated toilet and bidet+ unit You may encounter terms like "universal height" and "ADA compliant." While there is a connection between the two, it is important to know that not all universal height toilets are ADA compliant and vice versa.
The ADA standards set by the Americans with Disabilities Act are designed to be inclusive of people of all ages and abilities as well as those with mobility issues or lower body strength. By incorporating these standards into their products, Toto ensures that their customers can get the bathroom experience they want with the added benefit of being easy of use.
TOTO's ADA certified toilets have one-piece designs that instantly enhance any bathroom, while also providing a practical advantage over traditional two-piece models. The one-piece designs of TOTO make cleaning easier by eliminating the gap between tank and bowl. TOTO also has an efficient flushing system for their Eco UltraMax toilets. These toilets are water efficient and use less than 1.28 Gallons of water per flush.
Two-Piece and One-Piece Designs
Many who have traveled to Japan have praised the convenience and efficiency of the Toto toilets they used while there. Toto is a Japanese brand of toilets that is a one-piece design that integrates the tank and bowl. They are easy to clean and can fit in tight spaces. They are also very robust and can last for many years.
The group Toto was formed in the early 1970s when members performed session work for a number of notable musicians. Keyboardist David Paich and drummers Steve Lukather and Jeff Porcaro as well as bassist Joseph Williams were all regular contributors to albums by Steely Dan [73 Seals and Crofts[74], Boz Scaggs[75], and Sonny and Cher.
A few of the band members perform solo. In 1978, Bobby Kimball released an album entitled From the Inside. Steve Lukather released a second album titled Luke. David Paich and Joe Porcaro also recorded an album with jazz pianist Miles Davis.
Toto, in addition to their music has done numerous tours over the years. In February of 2018 they released their 40 Trips Around The Sun anniversary album and began a world tour in order to promote the album.
Central to TOTO's Total Design principle is taking into account the needs of all ages and abilities. They have a range of Universal Height toilets and sinks that are more accessible for anyone to reach, including those with mobility issues. They also have a line of WASHLET+ bidets that have revolutionized the experience of using the toilet from washing to wiping with the stream of water. This is a superior alternative to paper towels, and a lot of people are making the switch.
Noise Reduction
In the United States bathrooms are often located near bedrooms. Therefore, toilets that are quiet are popular. TOTO's Washlet, a bidet chair with an electric motor, is a fantastic way to achieve this. Combining a rimless, round bowl that consumes little water with a powerful spray of warm air that cleanses and dries the skin TOTO's toilets have been described as "magical."
While Japan is awed by its technological advancements but it also has a deep respect for the humble toilet. The Toilet Museum in Japan, which debuted in 1998, uses these attributes to inspire people to rethink their bathroom habits. The museum employs the power of poop to show that TOTO products are both efficient and environmentally green.
The museum also features the company's history of innovation, from the first flush to the aeration toilet that uses less water and reduces waste by 90 percent. The Washlet is included in this exhibit. It uses an air jet to cleanse and dry the user, while also obscuring the sound of the toilet by making chirping bird sounds.
Before beginning to form Toto members, such as bassist David Hungate and drummer Jeff Porcaro performed on albums by famous artists like Steely Dan Seals and Crofts Boz Scaggs and Sonny and Cher. David Paich, the keyboardist, was a regular session musician for artists like the Eagles, Larry Carlton and Quincy Jones.
In the years following Toto's debut album group struggled to develop an appealing sound and experienced several changes in its members. Eventually, Hungate left the band in 1980 to pursue an independent career in Nashville. His decision was prompted by the lack of time for his family and a growing drug problem. The band's success ultimately depended on the talents of Lukather and keyboardist Steve Porcaro.
Comfort
TOTO toilets were constructed with comfort at the forefront. This means that they come with many features that make your bathroom experience more enjoyable. They include heated seats, for instance that keep the user warm. They also have lids that are automatic that can be closed and opened to provide added convenience. They also have self-cleaning systems that keep the toilets clean and fresh.
When looking for a TOTO toilet, it is important to know what you should look for. There are numerous models available and it is crucial to find one that has all of the features that you need. To do this, you'll be required to be aware of the model number and SKU of the toilet. This information can be found on the packaging or in the online description of the product.
Before the formation of Toto, members of the band did session work for various popular musicians. David Paich, Steve Lukather and David Hungate, along with drummer Jeff Porcaro, were regular contributors to albums of Steely Dan and Seals and Crofts. They also contributed to Boz Scaggs and Sonny and Cher. In 1980, they formed Toto along with singer/songwriter Joseph Williams.
The band began to tour extensively after the release of Toto IV. In 1985 the vocalist Fergie Frederiksen was fired because she was said to have a difficult time meshing with the rest of the group. The next year, Toto recorded Fahrenheit, which was released in 1986.
The album was a musical departure for the group, incorporating elements of gospel and jazz. It wasn't an immediate commercial success in North America, but did well in Japan. In 1987, Toto played the Montreux Jazz Festival and continued to tour. During this time, bassist David Hungate quit the band to concentrate on his session and music production career. Steve Lukather, a guitarist/vocalist, replaced him.
