Chicago Faucets’ comprehensive line of plumbing fittings, faucets, and showers support the creation and maintenance of healthy spaces for learning, work, and recreation.  Starting March 12, 2025, Chicago Faucets is featuring a series of webinars to educate commercial and public building specifiers and facility managers on safer buildings through plumbing design.

The company’s durable plumbing fittings are engineered to meet the highest standards of quality, safety, and sustainability, addressing the evolving needs of healthcare, education, commercial centers, and public facilities

Chicago Faucets’ wellness products include:

• A complete line-up of electronic faucet models that meet the Well V2 Building Standards for public bathrooms, this includes no contact faucets and soap dispensers for the best hand hygiene experience.

• • The HyTronic^® Tempshield^® Series touchless faucets which offer models with integrated thermostatic valve for scald protection.
  • The EQ^® Series of automatic faucets and soap dispensers includes the compact EQ^® Arc sensor faucet which is offered with sustainable power options such as water turbine or long-term battery.
  • E-Tronic 80 Series – This popular modern touchless with matching soap dispenser is available in matte black and chrome finishes.

• Auto-Drain^® Shower System prevents water stagnation and minimizes waterborne bacteria growth. It is available in a low flow version for sustainable operations and also as a retrofit for showers that includes a handheld showering option. Many facilities are taking the precaution of installing the Auto-Drain to minimize their chance of waterborne infections.

  • Ensure complete distribution of chemical treatment.
  • Ease of monitoring for sustainability and water usage.
