Application

Propelair is designed to be strong and durable, making it well suited for heavy use / challenging environments.

Description

Propelair® is a water saving toilet that has a two-section cistern; one for air and one for water.


Before flushing, the lid is closed to form a seal. When the flush sensor is activated, water enters the pan to wash it, followed by air from the unique patented pump. The air cannot escape due to the sealed lid. This pushes out the entire contents of the pan to give a powerful, reliable flush.


Propelair® has a two-section cistern; one for air and one for water. The remaining water fills the water trap. The flush is completed in three seconds with the toilet ready to be re-flushed in 20—30 seconds (subject to water supply pressure).


Features and benefits:

  • Uses up to 84% less water: Propelair uses only 1.5 litres of water per flush, a fraction compared to the UK average of 9 litres. 
  • Reduce outgoing costs: Propelair reduces water and sewage bills by up to 60%.
  • Receive 100% tax relief on your first-year investment: ECA eligible – claim 19% back of investment.
  • Achieves quick payback: This can be achieved in less than one year.
  • Uses up to 80% less energy: Boosts resource efficiency and building performance.
  • Creates on average over 80% less carbon: Less energy for water and waste processing, meaning the toilet’s carbon footprint is reduced on average by over 80%.
  • Eradicated aerosol germs: Propelair reduces aerosolized germs by up to 95%. The germs are trapped inside Propelair’s unique closable lid, and then efficiently removed with its powerful air flush, creating a more hygienic and healthier washroom environment for users.
  • Removes contaminants: Conventional toilets can leave 6% of previous users’ contaminants behind after flushing, which can become airborne during frequent flushes. Propelair removes up to 99.9% of contaminants, ensuring less risk of cross-contamination.
  • Reduces odours: Closable lid, odours are dramatically reduced.
  • Protected by SteriTouch®: Antimicrobial additives in the handle help reduce germs.
  • High performance: Combining 1.5 litres of water and displaced air technology creates a powerful, high-performance flush which easily removes all waste with one flush.
  • Propelair’s rimless pan and side hinges make previously hard-to-clean areas easily accessible, ensuring a thorough cleaning process can be carried out.
  • The Propelair toilet is powered by a 24 v DC Battery Pack which is charged by a 230 v AC Smart Charger.
  • Each Smart Charger should be connected to the mains power supply via its own RCD fused spur.
