Rada – the commercial division of Kohler Mira and the experts in shower and washroom controls – offers a complete suite of products ideally suited to the demanding needs of the education sector – whether they are safety, security or hygiene. The collection encompasses digital water control devices, anti-vandal showering, washbasin taps and ancillary products; and examples from this extensive range will be presented at BSEC 2010.

Rada’s range majors on sustainability, in addition to being already synonymous with the highest levels of safety, durability and practicality, ensuring washrooms meet the very highest standards. The vast majority of Rada’s thermostatic mixing valves for showering and hand washing are fully compliant with the stringent TMV3 healthcare standard: yet when dealing with children, the delivery of hot water in a safe and controlled manner is equally important.

Sustainability, in particular water and energy saving, is evident in Rada’s school washroom package with an unrivalled range of digital, electronic and mechanically controlled water delivery products. These cover hand washing, group or individual showering and urinal flushing controls.
Rada group showering can be via mechanical valves or electronic no touch sensors with programmable timed flow – the latter being the popular Rada Pulse range. Showers for individual cubicles can be either ‘built in’ or exposed individual thermostatic shower valves. There is also a range of pre-plumbed shower panels with built-in push button or electronic no-touch flow control and vandal resistant shower heads

Highlighted on the stand will be the company’s Rada’s certified thermostatic mixer valve (TMV) offer is the company’s T-LogicTM digital intelligence; which allows the user to operate, communicate and exchange information with the valve to better underwrite safety, hygiene and control.

Leading the T-LogicTM TMV range is the Sense digital water control system – the UK’s first infra-red, no touch control panel for both water flow and temperature control. Sense offers a unique combination of safety, hygiene and absolute thermal control and even features an inbuilt thermal disinfection function with secure activation, which together with an automatic duty flush cycle – the frequency of which can be altered to suit individual site requirements – ensure risks of infection and contamination from water borne bacteria are minimised.

Obviously, education environments can bear heavily on showering facilities and Rada offers a range of tough, durable ‘school proof’ pre-plumbed shower panels. Ready to install, there are a number of variants in the range, depending on whether the panel is designed to be connected to a thermostatic mixing valve and accept blended water (group showering); or whether the panel has its own built-in thermostatic mixing valve (individual showering).

All are available equipped with VR105 vandal resistant fixed showerheads; and come in either stainless steel or white powder coated finishes.

With over 80 years experience in supplying water control solutions for non-domestic environments, Rada offers unsurpassed in-house and field based technical advice and support. Visitors to the stand at BSEC will be able to discuss and obtain advice on the most suitable Rada equipment for their individual application.
