Touchless faucets are becoming more and more common in both residential and commercial bathrooms. Here is a breakdown of the different types of sensor faucets available on the market.

Touchless faucets are becoming more and more common in public restrooms, as they provide a more hygienic experience for users. There are a number of different types of sensor faucets available on the market, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. The following is a brief overview of some of the most popular types of sensor faucets.

Touchless Sensor Faucets: Touchless sensor faucets are activated when hands are placed beneath the outlet. This type of faucet is beneficial in that it helps to prevent the spread of germs, as there is no need to touch any part of the faucet in order to activate it. Additionally, touchless sensor faucets often have a longer life span than traditional manual faucets. However, they can be more expensive to purchase and install.

Wave Sensor Faucets: Wave sensor faucets are activated when hands are waved in front of the outlet. This type of faucet is beneficial in that it is less likely to be activated by accident than touchless sensor faucets. However, it has been noted that wave sensor faucets can be less reliable than other types of sensor faucets and may require more frequent maintenance.

Foot: These faucets are activated by stepping on a pedal.

Wall Mounted: These faucets are mounted to the wall and activated by a sensor located near the spout.
