"we strive for water conservation"
Simply put, Falcon Waterfree urinals save time and money, conserve tremendous amounts of freshwater and create more hygienic, odor-free restrooms.
Using water to dispose of water makes no economic sense, particularly in a world facing a very limited supply of readily available fresh water. Falcon urinals save in three important ways:
Purchase Price:
Falcon systems are less expensive to purchase and install than flush urinals because they have no flushing mechanism. All that is required is a drainage outlet, typically less than an hour to install, and seconds to install the cartridge
Operating Costs:
Save 100% of the water going through urinals and 100% of water and sewer charges—both of which will certainly rise in the future.
Maintenance Costs:
Reduce maintenance to a periodic changing of the cartridge and quick cleanup as with traditional urinals. Eliminate costs associated with stuck or broken valves from normal wear and vandalism. Reduce pipe cleaning since lines remain free of calcification as no hard water is running through them. Reduce energy costs associated with transporting water to and from urinals.
As much as 5% of fresh water consumed is currently used to carry away urine. Each Falcon Waterfree urinal saves up you 40,000 gallons (151,000 liters) or more of fresh water per year.
This water does not need to be transported to the urinal or away from it to the water treatment facility, saving energy. No energy need be used to treat this water, nor does it produce carbon dioxide emissions as a byproduct of its treatment. Finally, by reducing the load on treatment plants, the Falcon Waterfree system can reduce the need for costly water treatment capacity and reduce the incidence of overflow events at treatment facilities.
