Abstract: A handheld showerhead assembly including a handheld showerhead and a receiver to which the handheld showerhead is releasably securable. The handheld showerhead includes a push-button on a handle portion thereof for releasing the handheld showerhead from the receiver. The handheld showerhead is maintained securely engaged with the receiver until the push-button is depressed to permit removal of the handheld showerhead from the receiver. Cooperating magnetic components attract the handheld showerhead to the receiver.

Abstract: A showerhead (2) and a pulsation mechanism thereof are disclosed. The showerhead (2) with three sets of spaced-apart nozzles (22a, 22b, 22c) is configured to be cyclically activated in sequence, with each set of nozzles (22a, 22b, 22c) operative for approximately 0.25 seconds to 1 second, while the other two sets of nozzles (22a, 22b, 22c) are deactivated. The showerhead (2) el includes a shutter (34) adapted to open a flow passage (36) within the showerhead (2) leading to one or more respective nozzles (22a, 22b, 22c) periodically to produce an intermittent pulsating flow.

Abstract: An automatic valve actuator unit and method for use with an associated manual shutoff valve configured to permit or restrict the flow of fluid through an associated supply pipe. The unit comprises a housing, an attachment mechanism for securing the housing to at least one of the associated supply pipe or manual shutoff valve, and an actuator at least partially supported in the housing and having an output shaft extending from the housing. The output shaft includes a locating member supported at a distal end thereof for non-rotatingly engaging a surface of a valve handle of the associated manual shutoff valve adjacent a point of attachment of the handle to the associated manual shutoff valve, the locating member configured to center the output shaft over an axis of rotation of the handle of the associated manual shutoff valve.

Abstract: A water leak detection system including a leak detector and a wall bracket with an integral or removable remote probe that can be positioned remotely from the leak detector. The leak detector is configured to electrically couple with the remote probe when mechanically coupled with the wall bracket, requiring no further user interaction to activate the probe. The wall bracket can include multiple remote probes that each electrically couple with the leak detector when the leak detector is mechanically coupled to the wall bracket, any one of the remote probes capable of triggering the leak detector when a leak occurs.

Abstract: A showerhead having a plurality of nozzle groups for dispensing water in a plurality of spray patterns, and a selector for selecting one or more of the nozzle groups for dispensing water or for pausing flow from the showerhead. When the selector is configured to pause flow from the showerhead a minimum flow is provided to each of the plurality of nozzle groups.

Abstract: A handheld shower assembly including a handheld showerhead, a receiver mountable to an outlet pipe, a coupling mechanism for releasably coupling the handheld shower with the receiver. The coupling mechanism can include a male component adapted to be received in a female component, and a retention flange adapted to engage the receiver to assist in retaining the showerhead in a coupled state.

Abstract: A plunger having a plunger body with a handle flange portion for connection to an associated handle, a domed portion extending from the handle flange portion, a frustoconical portion extending from the domed portion, and a first bulbous portion extending from the frustoconical portion, wherein the domed portion is configured to collapse at least partially into the frustoconical portion during use.

Abstract: A furniture pad including a body having a floor engaging surface portion and a peripheral edge portion at least partially surrounding the floor engaging surface portion. The peripheral edge portion has a first density and the floor engaging surface portion has a second density, the first density being greater than the second density. The peripheral edge portion extends away from the floor engaging surface portion such that the peripheral edge portion does not contact an associated supporting surface when the floor engaging surface portion is in contact with the associated supporting surface, whereby the peripheral edge portion has a relatively more durable surface as compared to the floor engaging surface portion.

Abstract: A fill valve assembly for use in a water storage tank including: a tube; an inlet valve assembly supported by the tube and including an inlet valve and a valve lever operatively coupled to the inlet valve, the inlet valve being on in a first position of the valve lever, and being off in a second position of the valve lever; a float constrained for axial movement in a direction along the tube and coupled to the valve lever; and a linkage assembly positioned between the valve lever and the tube and pivoting between a first upright position wherein the valve lever is maintained in the first position and a second folded position, the linkage assembly including a pivot axis transverse to a longitudinal axis of the tube, the float coupled to linkage assembly and constrained from axial movement when the linkage assembly is in the upright position.
