Duravit Urinals
Duravit Urinals
Urinals get specified for offices, restaurants, schools, clubhouses and guest cloakrooms, and the reason is usually water rather than style. Duravit puts a standard urinal at one to two litres a flush against the three to six litres a conventional toilet uses, so in a busy washroom the saving compounds quickly. This page carries Starck 3, D-Code, DuraStyle, Fizz, Katja and ME by Starck ceramics, plus a waterless DuraStyle model and a matching Starck 3 partition.
The Ranges
Starck 3 and D-Code are the two most asked for, and both are plain white sanitary ceramic that sits comfortably next to the pans in the same ranges. Fizz and Katja are the more compact designs. The ME by Starck urinal is the one to look at on a specification job, because Duravit finishes it with DuraShield, which it describes as a two in one protective glaze that is easy to care for and antibacterial, with a smooth, almost pore free surface that dirt and limescale run off more easily.
Flushing and the Waterless Option
Most of these are flushing ceramics, and Duravit notes that the siphon trap keeps odours down even under intensive use. The DuraStyle waterless urinal takes a different approach. Duravit describes its waterless models as working through a hose membrane that opens automatically as urine flows through and closes again afterwards, sealing the drain without a water trap and removing the flush entirely. Worth costing where a water connection is awkward.
Water Supply, Flush Control and Partitions
Check the inlet before you order. Several models here are listed in both a top entry version, where the supply comes down into the bowl from above, and a version fed from behind so the pipework stays out of sight in the wall. Flush control for a concealed installation runs off the 500 x 1148 mm DuraSystem urinal frame on our Duravit cisterns page, actuated by the 130 x 150 mm A1 urinal plate on Duravit flush plates. The Starck 3 partition, 400 mm deep and 705 mm high, divides a bank of bowls.
Specify the bowl, the frame, the flush control and the partition together, since the frame is built in before the wall is closed. Duravit toilets covers the pans that go in alongside, and the full Duravit range is on display at our Kramerville showroom.
