"we strive for water conservation"
The table below gives three examples that illustrate how the Falcon Waterfree urinal system generates savings. Note that all assumptions are based on conservative estimates. Variables are annual usage, water and sewer rates, and valve replacement/repair costs. Also note that special time payment and rental programs can result in zero-cost or immediate payback installations, since savings are often greater than monthly payments.

Note: change of cartridge is recommended after 10-12000 uses. Here considering 4 urinals for 100 males x 3 uses = 300 / 4 urinals = 75 uses per day x 260 days = 19500 uses per year. / Urinal hence two replacement of cartridges per urinal will be sufficient.
