Let’s get straight to an essential advancement in toilet hygiene: TOTO’s innovative EWater+ technology. EWater+ utilises electrolysed water, created by transforming regular tap water through electrolysis, to sanitise the toilet bowl and cleaning wand automatically. At each use, the toilet sprays this safe yet powerful disinfectant, effectively eliminating bacteria and significantly reducing odours and stains. The result? A more hygienic bathroom environment that continuously self-cleans, promoting wellness and providing users with unmatched peace of mind. Discover why TOTO's EWater+ technology is redefining cleanliness and setting new standards for bathroom hygiene.
How Does EWater+ Improve Toilet Hygiene and Health?
EWater+ significantly enhances toilet hygiene by consistently preventing bacterial growth. Unlike conventional toilets that require frequent chemical cleaning to maintain sanitation, EWater+ technology continuously disinfects surfaces with electrolysed water. This ongoing sanitisation dramatically reduces the risk of infections and cross-contamination, promoting better overall health for users.
Moreover, the reduced need for chemical cleaners contributes positively to environmental sustainability, offering an eco-friendly solution to bathroom cleanliness. This combination of health, hygiene, and sustainability makes TOTO’s EWater+ an essential addition to modern, wellness-focused bathrooms.
How is EWATER+ Made?
EWATER+, or electrolysed water, is produced through the electrolysis of ordinary tap water containing sodium chloride ions. When tap water undergoes electrolysis, it forms a solution primarily composed of Hypochlorous acid and sodium hydroxide, both powerful yet gentle cleaning agents. This solution effectively eliminates bacteria and odours without the need for harsh chemicals, making it completely safe for people and environmentally friendly.
Electrolysed water has a proven track record, having been trusted by industries like foodservice and hospitality for sanitation purposes for over 50 years. Today, TOTO uniquely integrates this powerful sanitising technology directly into its WASHLET bidet wand and toilet bowl surfaces, delivering unmatched hygiene directly into your bathroom.
Automatic Self-Cleaning Functionality of EWATER+
TOTO’s advanced EWATER+ technology features automatic self-cleaning capabilities, distinguishing it from traditional toilets and bidets. Each time the WASHLET is used, EWATER+, a powerful yet gentle electrolysed water solution, is automatically misted onto the toilet bowl surfaces and bidet wand, effectively disinfecting them without any manual intervention.
EWATER+ activates automatically at key moments:
-
Before Use: A fine EWATER+ mist coats the toilet bowl, creating a protective barrier that prevents waste and bacteria from adhering, significantly reducing stains and odours.
-
After Each Use: Once the WASHLET bidet wand retracts, it is immediately sprayed with EWATER+, thoroughly sanitising the wand to ensure cleanliness and prevent bacteria buildup.
-
During Inactivity: Even when the toilet isn’t frequently used, EWATER+ periodically sprays every eight hours, refreshing the bowl and wand surfaces, continuously maintaining a hygienic environment.
This regular and automatic application of EWATER+ ensures consistent sanitation, dramatically minimising bacterial growth, residue buildup, and unpleasant odours. By proactively disinfecting toilet surfaces, TOTO EWATER+ maintains a consistently fresh, hygienic, and worry-free bathroom space, greatly reducing the need for harsh chemical cleaners and manual upkeep.
Ultimately, TOTO’s automatic EWATER+ self-cleaning system delivers unmatched cleanliness, ensuring a healthier, more comfortable bathroom experience at all times.
