Description

Hôpital Necker Paris discovered the WaterFlush tank at the end of 2018 and was seduced by the simplicity of its technology. A trial was decided, and a laboratory toilet was equipped. After 3 months of operation without any intervention from EcoNeves, the Hôpital found that this tank was reliable and that users were satisfied with this flush. They have gradually installed WaterFlush cisterns throughout the facility, starting with the public toilets and the communal toilets in the checkrooms, as until now there had been leaks from the bell seals, resulting in high water consumption and scaling of the drains.

Impact & Result

40% reduction in water consumption for equipped washrooms, and reduction in maintenance hours and costs

Solution Spotlight

The Waterflush toilet tank saves its users time and money. Its innovative mechanism does not involve any flushing mechanism involving a seal, this leads to no leaks no risk of scaling and no maintenance. The Solution is economical since it enables important water savings, water bills are halved on average compared to conventional systems. The water savings also bring an important environmental advantage compared to conventional toilets, the user only consumes what is needed (1 to 5 liters of water). Additionally, the tank is guaranteed for 10 years and is 100% recyclable. To do good for the planet, we must start by taking action in our daily lives. Clean water used in toilets represents 20% of household water consumption. Waterflush was born from the desire to take care of the most precious asset on our planet: water.
