 ADA compliance is the most important consideration in hotel
design.
Persons from all walks of life will be visiting the hotel. Many
of these people will be physically challenged in a variety of ways.
Providing them with convenient access to facilities is both a legal requirement
and the ethical thing to do.
Bradley
commercial bathroom lavatory systems can be purchased that are manufactured
as ADA and TAS compliant units. Concave and lower frequency lavatories can
be configured with barrier-free clearances, reaches, and controls. There
are a number of models, ranging from the basic to the very high end that will
accommodate any type of hotel restroom design.
In matters of public service, a hotel restroom design must also focus on
appealing to guests.
Guests never want to use commercial bathroom lavatory
systems that appear dirty in any way. Superior materials must be used in
the manufacture of these systems in order for them to accommodate the high
expectations of clients.
Most of the newer fixtures are now being made from Terreon®.
Terreon® is a highly attractive, highly vandal-resistant substance. On
an aesthetic level, it shares some of the same qualities of high-grade polished
stone. However, it is not stone. It is a high-grade solid surface
material that can be ordered in any number of colors.
The basics commercial
bathroom lavatory systems in hotel restroom design that we are all
accustomed to include white, gray, and graphite, are still very popular.
More luxury accommodations have more exotic color options to choose from,
however. Peppered white, moonstone, lannonstone, and blue sky are just a
few of these choices.
Terreon® is also very durable. It is characterized by superior vandal
resistance and is can be counted on to last for many years. Countertop and
bowl designs are shaped to trap soap and water within the lavatory while it is
being cleaned. This keeps water off the floor and keeps the restroom safer
and cleaner as a result.
Terreon
commercial bathroom lavatory systems are also nonporous. This makes
them the most sanitary choice for hotel restroom design. Bacteria have a
very difficult time growing on a surface that does not absorb water. This
reduces the risk of pathogens spreading from one person’s hands to
another. There is also the issue of staining. People with very dirty
hands can often stain sinks that are made from porous surface materials.
This will not happen with Terreon® sinks because liquid cannot penetrate the
surface.
Water conservation is another major concern in hotel restroom design.
With or without a conscious intention to pursue a LEED certification, a building
must be proactive in the management of expenditures. Water resources are
coming under increased scrutiny, and it is good for both a budget and for public
relations to be as conservative in their use as possible.
Commercial
bathroom lavatory systems can be ordered with infrared, no-touch
faucets. These controls are another vandal resistant measure because they
automatically shut the unit off after 30-45 seconds of flow. Most systems
also regulate water flow to .5 GMP to meet guidelines of the Department of
Energy Conservation.
