Urinal Management Solutions

An effective urinal management solution incorporates chemical, biological and physical methods to destroy bacteria and break down uric scale from pipework, leaving the urinal free-flowing and smelling its best. By automating this process, the urinal is maintained 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, reducing the need for cleaning multiple times a day. A modern urinal management system should also feature water saving technology to benefit the environment and reduce costs.

At Initial Washroom Hygiene, we offer a range of environmentally friendly, innovative solutions to create a comfortable washroom environment for our customers.

Including:

• Eco-Clear Urinal Service - a comprehensive service contract to ensure free-flowing conditions
• Sani Sleeve and Urinal Mat - the key components of our Eco-Clear Service
• PIR Water Manager - regulates water flow only when it's needed
• Dual Sanitiser - automated dosing system
• Male Incontinence Range - a selection of modern products available in the cubicle

Our Eco-Clear Service provides peace of mind that your washroom is clean, maintained, and hygienic at all times. The 3-step service enables us to ensure free-flowing conditions for our customers at all times.

Several problems can occur if a site does not have water management devices installed, including:

• Increased Water Consumption: Without the necessary water control systems in place, your urinals may flush constantly and in most cases excessively, which can lead to higher water usage, therefore increasing utility costs.
• Blockages: A lack of proactive cistern management may lead to blockages and clogs within the urinal system.
• Environmental Impact: With the potential for excessive water usage, this may increase a business’s environmental footprint over time.
• Odour Issues: Odour problems are inevitable and can escalate fast. These problems include bacterial growth, high urine concentration, scale and biofilm build-up. If left unaddressed, this can result in costly repairs and replacement, or require more frequent deep cleaning and over-reliance on harmful chemicals

Did you know that for an average office-based business, a staggering 63% of its total water usage will be from flushing toilets and urinals?

Initial’s PIR Water Manager minimises water wastage while conforming to UK water regulations. The water savings achieved ensure that this product quickly provides a return on investment and ongoing cost savings to your business.

The benefits of our Water Management system and how it helps keep your water usage under control:

Our Water Management service includes the following:

• Installation of the PIR Water Manager system
• Total Peace of Mind
• Equipment Rental
• Annual Battery Replacement
• Lifetime Guarantee on equipment*

*All mechanical and technical faults are covered
To ensure you are in control of your business's water usage our PIR Water Manager has four programmable flush rates.

• Choose between 1 to 4 flushes per hour

You can also choose between two hygiene flush cycles.

• 12 hours or 24 hours

The Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 require that businesses control the amount of water they use. Installing our water management device will keep you compliant.

• Flushing cisterns serving a single bowl/slab are required to flush no more than 10 litres of water per hour.
• Flushing cisterns serving multiple bowls/slabs are required to flush no more than 7.5 litres of water per hour.
• The urinal control must be designed to ensure that the urinal/cistern(s) do not fill and flush during periods when the building is not in occupancy or in use.

Regular cistern cleaning can be tricky, but not doing so will result in foul-smelling urinals and toilets in most washrooms. Our Dual Sanitiser helps by providing “a brush with every flush” automatically cleaning from the cistern to the pipes as the liquid travels through the pipework.

Both the Signature and Reflection dual sanitisers provide a dose of fluid at set intervals.  This provides ongoing protection against the build-up of uric scale and bacteria, helping tackle the root causes of odour issues associated with cistern cleaning.

• Can be positioned out of sight
• Dose Eco-Clear fluid on a customised timer to ensure consistent cleaning
• Use in conjunction with a Washroom Deep Clean will help to remove any limescale build-up
• Functions as both a urinal and toilet (WC) sanitiser

Our research* indicates that 56% of male respondents are put off using public washrooms because of bad odours, and 60% if they appear dirty.
We understand the challenges in men’s washrooms and the importance of providing a positive experience. Unpleasant odours, unhygienic urinals and a lack of discreet options for the disposal of male incontinence products are just a few of the common issues that can negatively impact repeat visits. 75% of males surveyed said that the overall quality of their experience of a washroom influences how much they would be willing to spend with a business.*
