Sloan Centerset Optima Touchless Faucet |

This hands-free infrared faucet has an angular design that would blend in with a contemporary bathroom.

These touchless automatic faucets offer an accessible place to wash your hands.
You can have the same convenience offered in public restrooms right in your own home! Useful in the bathroom, powder room, or workplace, this faucet makes washing hands a breeze.
Simply place your hands under the faucet and the infrared sensor will activate the water flow until your hands move away or until the 'time out' limit is reached. (The factory 'time out' setting is 30 seconds, but can be shortened or lengthened as neede.) The Sloan Automatic Faucet is easy to use because there are no handles to push or knobs to turn. The sensor is located on the trim, to the left of the faucet. This Infrared faucet also makes it easy to save money too - the water stops running as soon as your hands are out of range.
The Sloan Centerset Optima Touchless Faucet is made of handsome chrome plated brass and requires little maintenance to give you many years of use. The Trim plate is available with 4" or 8" centers.
This faucet comes with a Bak-Chek tee which is a standard plumbing unit that combines a hot/cold water supply so that the temperature can be controlled by adjusting the supply stops. Alternative mechanical or thermostatic temperature mixing valves are also available (See the "Mixing Valves" tab for details.)
There are two options for power sources. You can chose a faucet with either a plug-in transformer (for which an electric receptacle must be available or installed prior to installation of faucet) or a box mount (hardwire) transformer.
AM Note: Due to the factory set time-out mechanism, we recommend this faucet for daily living needs, such as brushing teeth, washing hands, etc. Filling the sink for various needs (such as hand washed laundry) will require you to keep your hands under the faucet and wave them at 30 second intervals to maintain water flow. Alternatively, you could reset the time-out mechanism for a longer interval.
