Douglas Delabie new Tempofix Frame System is the first frame system purpose-designed to resist specific constraints of public and commercial places.
Bob Purdom, the company's commercial director, says: "Easy and fast to install, this totally self-supporting system is the ideal solution for the fitting of a washbasin, urinal or wall-hung WC in public/commercial sector applications, particularly in enhancing sanitary facility aesthetics and via direct flush valves.
"As visible pipes are concealed, wall-hung fixtures look much neater and more aesthetically pleasing.
While other benefits include high resistance to vandalism thanks to concealment of fittings, plus easier hygiene and servicing by clearance under the pan".
The frame system is totally self-supporting for floor mounting, irrespective of wall quality or load bearing.
It has a one-piece base with integral reinforcement.
Without wall fixing, its innovative design provides unmatched vertical resistance to withstand strong loads and vandalism.
Plus, automatic shut-off or electronic control options resist public and commercial place constraints.
Delivered ready for fitting, Tempofix provides significant time-savings during the setting of several frame systems.
Fixture height adjustment is via an independent part of the frame and can be easily operated by one person.
Direct flush advantages.
Bob Purdom: "Installing direct flush valves with push button or electronic control avoids the drawbacks of using cisterns in public and commercial places.
A flush tank for the WC pan (intended for residential use) is not satisfactory in such applications.
But, the direct flush valves are specifically designed appropriate to the constraints of public and commercial washroom facilities with high usage".
Direct flush advantages include: immediate and powerful flush (water is immediately available allowing many successive flushes, giving same water quantity), sturdy design for vandal-proof intensive use (brass and stainless steel shock-proof mechanisms give unmatched resistance), easy time-saving and infrequent maintenance (scale-proof mechanism without accumulation of impurities; mechanism cartridge accessible from front without dismounting valve).
