Vecta+ tap range encourages hygiene, water conservation and cost savings

With rising water consumption, a growing population and climate change, the importance of water conservation is becoming ever more pressing.

By 2050, Britain will require an additional 2.7 billion litres of water each day just to keep the taps running. In the fight against wasted water, Cistermiser offers a smart solution: the Vecta+ infrared tap range is designed to curb excess water flow and deliver significant financial savings for customers.

The Vecta+ series combines infrared technology and practical design for a touchless, hygienic experience. Versatile in power options, these sensor taps can operate via mains or batteries, accommodating a range of environments. Ideal for both retrofitting and new installations, Vecta+ infrared taps enhance hygiene, curb the spread of germs and embody efficiency. With an intelligent safety shutoff after 60 seconds of continuous use, they prevent any water wastage or potential flooding − a smart solution for modern spaces.

The range features the Vecta+ Sensor Tap, a deck mounted single supply basin tap and Vecta+ Sensor Spout, designed for wall or panel installation, both include an external solenoid for straightforward maintenance. The Vecta+ Sensor Mixer Tap, is equipped with a side-mounted control for temperature adjustment. All these models have flow restrictors, designed without aeration, making them ideal for environments requiring heightened hygiene, such as healthcare and care home settings, where the risk or legionella and other water-carried respiratory viruses or bacteria is high.

Easy to install, each tap in the range has a sleek, contemporary design with intelligent electronics to protect against vandalism and misuse. Complying with water regulation standards and supporting eco-friendly building schemes like BREEAM, the taps are equipped with a flow regulator that limits the flow to 3.5 litres per minute (lpm) by default with an alternative 5lpm flow regulator in the box.
