Launch of Hybrid Retrofit Urinal Will Help California Save Substantial Water

Falcon Waterfree Technologies launches the Retrofit Hybrid Urinal, through partner Sloan Valve Company, which will help California businesses saves thousands of gallons of water annually and mitigate current drought conditions in the region.

Los Angeles, March 23, 2016 As a company committed to changing the world by developing revolutionary, technology-driven restroom products that conserve our Earth’s precious fresh water supply and to using the power of our business and products to help solve local social and environmental problems, Falcon Waterfree Technologies is proud to announce the launch of the new Hybrid Retrofit Urinal with US partner Sloan, the world’s leading manufacturer of commercial plumbing systems.

The new model, HYB-1000-RET, offers all the features of the revolutionary original new construction Hybrid Urinal, launched in 2015, including: maximum LEED credits, minimal water and sewage costs and automatic drain line rinsing.

“We are proud to launch such a revolutionary water conserving product, especially at a time where water conservation is so crucial in the many drought stricken parts of the country.  Installation of this high-performance water conservation technology, along with our waterfree urinal technology, will help realize immediate and substantial water savings,” stated Simon A. Davis, President & CEO of Falcon.

Like the original Hybrid Urinal, the Hybrid Retrofit Urinal uses Falcon’s proprietary and market leading Velocity cartridge technology and flushing system, called Jetrinse Solution Technology, which uses a carefully directed high volume flow of water to rinse the drain line every 72 hours to prevent clogs, odor-causing build up and minimize maintenance requirements. With this timed flush, all Hybrid Urinals use only about 100 gallons of water per year, regardless of the number of users.

“Sloan Hybrid Retrofit Urinals consume zero water for flushing and ensure proper maintenance with minimal water usage,” says Patrick Boyle, director of corporate sustainability at Sloan. “This green-building, retrofit version offers reduced natural resource consumption, enhanced user hygiene and cost savings on water, sewage and maintenance—improving the bottom line and return on investment.”

Falcon Partners with Dig Deep for World Water Day

Los Angeles, CA — March 22,2106

We are always working on ways to give back to our local community and help to build a long term, sustainable infrastructure. We believe that every child and family should have access to clean running water and we could not be more proud to celebrate World Water Day this year by announcing our partnership with DigDeep on the Baby Lisa Project.

Baby Lisa was born in Phoenix, Arizona and has been diagnosed with microvillus inclusion disease, a life-threatening condition that prevents the absorption of nutrients from food during digestion, resulting in malnutrition and dehydration.

Since her diagnosis a year and half ago, Baby Lisa has been living in a medical facility 3 hours away from her home, located in the remote Arizona desert. Unfortunately, Baby Lisa cannot receive the medical attention she needs and return home until her family’s house can meet sanitation requirements and have access to running water.  Baby Lisa’s family is one of many American families that suffer from water poverty – a tremendous issue that is often over looked and forgotten about in the United States. Water is crucial to Baby Lisa’s recovery and without access to running water in her home doctors are refusing to give her the transplant she desperately needs.

CaptureEven though the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) considers them ‘first priority’, Baby Lisa’s family still has to wait 2 or 3 years to get running water in their home – time that Baby Lisa does not have.  In order to bring Lisa home, we are partnering with DigDeep, a non profit organization who defends clean water access as a human right, to provide sustainable, water conservation fixtures for Baby Lisa’s home.

Today, on World Water Day, DigDeep has launched an incredible campaign to help Baby Lisa’s family renovate their home to meet the standards needed for Lisa to return. We could not be more proud to help build a sustainable and hygienic infrastructure for Baby Lisa and her family, and we encourage everyone to join in and help contribute by donating at http://www.babylisa.org/ .

Together, we can build Baby Lisa home with running water and take her family out of water poverty
