TOTO Toilets Help Consumers Navigate the New Normal
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about a new normal to the lives of many people. TOTO makes use of its technology to help people navigate this New Normal.
Kaisen or "perfection" is a social principle that is the driving force behind the Japanese company Toto. Their latest toilet, the WELLNESSTOILET, uses cutting edge sensing technology to aid in customer health and wellness.
Water Sense Technology
Affiliated with the EPA, WaterSense labeled plumbing fixtures aid in conserving energy and water, while providing secure, reliable performance. TOTO USA is proud to be among the first companies to receive the WaterSense label for our EcoPower flush valves as well as commercial flushometer toilets.
Our Aquia IV dual-flush toilet is a great example of a bathroom fixture that is high-efficiency. It only uses 1.28 Gallons of water per flush, which is lower than the 1.6 gallons needed to meet EPA standards for an extended toilet. The Aquia IV features TOTO TORNADO FLUSH technology, Totopia KR which decreases the frequency of cleaning bowls and the need for extra flushes.
Installing a showerhead that is low-flowing can reduce the amount of water you need while bathing or washing. Our high-efficiency showerheads are WaterSense evaluated and have the latest technology to ensure superior performance and ease of use.
Limiting water usage is essential in a world with frequent water shortages. TOTO's EcoPower Technology, which is found in the Aquia IV and NEXUS toilets, reduces the use of water by using only 1.28 gallons of water for each flush.
TOTO's elongated toilets are EPA-approved for high efficiency. The elongated toilets come with a round or elongated basin and an ADA-compliant 17-19 inches height. We also offer an elongated toilet with a compact design that is perfect for tight spaces and uses just 0.9 gallons per flush.
TOTO's bidets are among the most sought-after in the market for both home and commercial use. They are not just more affordable than toilet paper, they also offer a cleaner and healthier clean and leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. The NEXUS Bidet uses our EWATER+ Technology, which is produced by electrolyzing tap water to create a solution containing sodium chloride ions. This creates an effective disinfectant that kills bacteria, virus and other pathogens while leaving your skin, and the environment safe.
ADA Compliant
When you are looking for an ADA compatible integrated toilet and bidet+ system, you may come across terms like "universal height" and "ADA compliant." While there is a connection between the two, it's important to be aware that not all universal height toilets are ADA compliant and vice versa.
The ADA standards established by the Americans with Disabilities Act are designed to accommodate people of all abilities and ages, including those with limited mobility or lower body strength. By incorporating these standards into their products, Toto ensures that their customers have the bathroom experience they want with the added benefit of convenience of use.
TOTO's ADA certified toilets have one-piece designs that instantly beautify any bathroom while providing a functional advantage over traditional two-piece models. The one-piece designs of TOTO help with cleaning by removing the gap between bowl and tank. TOTO's Eco UltraMax toilets also have high-efficiency flushing system that is water-efficient. They are water-efficient and use 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF) or less.
One-Piece or Two-Piece Design
Many who have travelled to Japan have praised the convenience and efficiency of the Toto toilets they have used during their stay. Toto is a Japanese toilet brand with a single-piece design that combines the bowl and tank. These toilets are simple to clean and can fit in small spaces. They are also durable and will last a long time.
The band Toto began in the early 1970s when members performed session work for a number of renowned musicians. Keyboardist David Paich, drummers Steve Lukather and Jeff Porcaro, and bassist Joseph Williams all had been regular contributors to albums by Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, [74] Boz Scaggs,[75 and Sonny and Cher, among others.
Some of the band members also perform solo. Vocalist Bobby Kimball released a album called From the Inside in 1978. guitarist Steve Lukather a second LP entitled Luke, and keyboardists David Paich and Joe Porcaro recorded an album with jazz pianist Miles Davis.
In addition to their music, Toto has done a lot of touring throughout the years. They released their 40th anniversary album Trips Around the Sun in February of this year, and then embarked on a global tour to promote the album.
The core of TOTO's Total Design principle is taking into account the needs of everyone of all different ages and abilities. Universal Height toilets are available for those who have limited mobility. They also offer a range of WASHLETand bidets that have transformed the toilet experience from washing to wiping with a stream of water. This is a much better alternative to paper towels and many people are now making the switch.
Noise Reduction
In the United States, bathrooms are usually situated near bedrooms, so toilets that keep noise to a minimum are sought-after. And TOTO has come up with a method to achieve this with its Washlet, an electronic bidet seat. It combines a round bowl that consumes less water, and powerful sprays of warm air that cleans and dries the skin, TOTO's toilets have been described as "magical."
The humble toilet is highly valued in Japan which is a country that loves its technological advancements. Those qualities come together in the country's Toilet Museum which was inaugurated in 1999 and is designed to make people think differently about their toilet habits. A poop-powered toilet motorcycle and other tongue-in-cheek exhibits are designed to emphasize the message of the museum that TOTO products are not only efficient, but also environmentally friendly.
The museum also showcases TOTO's innovations, starting from the first flush to the aeration toilet which makes use of less water and reduces waste by 90 percent. There's also an area that features the company's Washlet that uses a jet of water to wash and dry the user while concealing the sounds of a toilet with the sound of birds chirping.
Before the formation of Toto members such as bassist David Hungate and drummer Jeff Porcaro played on albums of famous artists like Steely Dan Seals and Crofts Boz Scaggs and Sonny and Cher. Keyboardist David Paich was a regular on sessions for artists like the Eagles, Larry Carlton, and Quincy Jones.
In the years following Toto's first album band struggled to achieve success and had to endure a series of changes in members. In the end, Hungate left the band in 1980 to pursue an independent career in Nashville. The reason he left the band was due to a lack time for his family, and a growing addiction problem. The band's success was dependent on Lukather and Steve Porcaro.
Comfort
The toilets of TOTO are designed with the user's comfort in mind. They have many features that make the bathroom experience more enjoyable. For instance, they have heated seats that help keep the user warm. They also have automatic lids that open and close for greater convenience. Additionally, they feature self-cleaning technology to keep the toilet fresh and clean.
When looking for a TOTO toilet it is essential to know what you should look for in. There are a variety of models to pick from, so it's important to find the one that comes with all the features you need. To do this, you have to be aware of the model number and the SKU of the toilet. This information can be found on the packaging or in the online product description.
Before forming Toto the members of the group performed sessions for a variety of popular musicians. Keyboardist David Paich, guitarist Steve Lukather, bassist David Hungate and drummer Jeff Porcaro had been regular contributors to albums of Steely Dan, Seals and Crofts, Boz Scaggs, and Sonny and Cher. In 1980 they formed Toto along with singer/songwriter Joseph Williams.
Following the release of Toto IV, the band began to tour extensively. In 1985, vocalist Fergie Frederiksen was dismissed because she was reported to have a difficult to get along with the rest of the band. Toto released Fahrenheit in 1986, the year that followed the recording of Fahrenheit.
The album was an innovative musical venture for the band, incorporating elements of gospel and jazz. The album didn't become an immediate success in North America but it did well in Japan. In 1987, Toto played the Montreux Jazz Festival and continued to tour. During this time, bassist David Hungate left the band to focus on his session and production career. He was replaced by vocalist/guitarist Steve Lukather.
