Rainforest Plumbing & Air does installation and repair of wall-mounted urinals. Urinals come in many different shapes and sizes and the flush mechanisms operate differently, depending on the model. Traditionally, a manual flush valve, controlled by pressing a button or pulling a lever, operates them.

In more recent years, the manual flush mechanisms have been replaced by timed and automatic flush technologies. The timed-flush urinal typically connects all of the units to one water source, which is controlled by a timer. Flushing occurs at controlled intervals.

Next, the auto-flush will use a passive infrared sensor that detects when someone has moved in front of the unit and then away, then activates the flush valve. It conserves more water than the timed-flush units.

Finally, the most recent and innovative is the waterless urinal. These urinals are usually much smaller than traditional units and will save countless dollars on energy bills. They make use of a sealant liquid that floats above the urine, thus trapping in odor. Though the filters will have to be changed regularly, these urinals are sanitary and cost effective.
