Abstract: A building facility water management method and system for controlling at least one operational parameter associated with a volume of water used by a water control device during a device operation of the water control device in a building facility is provided. The method and system allows for obtaining a water operation value associated with a volume of water for the water control device during the device operation; determining whether the water operation value is outside of a defined threshold associated with the device operation; upon a determination that the water operation value is outside of the defined threshold, adjusting an operational parameter associated with the water control device during the device operation to enable the water control device to be effectively operated.

Abstract: A maintenance management system is disclosed. The system includes a processing device, a plurality of components in communication with the processing device, each component having a location associated with the component and one or more sensors for capturing usage data associated with the component, and user devices in communication with the processing device. Usage data of components is communicated to the processing device. The processing device determines from the usage data whether any of the components requires maintenance. The location of each respective component requiring maintenance is communicated to at least one of the one or more user devices from the processing device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a urinal system (10), a water consumer system having such a urinal system, and a method for operating a urinal system.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a sanitary facility management system as well as a corresponding sanitary facility management method with at least one sanitary installation, which is coupled to a water supply and/or is included in a water circuit and on which at least one operating value of the at least one sanitary installation can be recorded, a sanitary facility control device connected to the at least one sanitary installation comprising at least one data transmitter and at least one signal receiver and a data processing and signal output system communicating with the sanitary facility control device via the at least one data transmitter and the at least one signal receiver, wherein the data processing and signal output system is a system learning by machine and/or a system comprising an artificial neuronal net and/or an expert system.

Abstract: A method for detecting an assistance indicator in a physical consumable usage environment, wherein the method comprises the steps of: detecting an assistance indicator using an electronic control device associated with at least one physical consumable provisioning device; generating an alert based on detection of the assistance indicator; and communicating the alert to a registered device that is associated with the physical consumable provisioning device.

Abstract: A method for detecting abnormal usage of a physical consumable in a physical consumable usage environment (107), wherein the method comprises the steps of: monitoring detected usage data associated with the provision of at least one physical consumable in a physical consumable usage environment (107) using at least one physical consumable provisioning device (101, 103, 105) that is arranged to provide the physical consumable; and detecting abnormal usage of the physical consumable based on the monitoring of the detected usage data.

Abstract: A rimless toilet pan (20) includes a forward end (F), a rearward end (R) and a pan bowl (28). A flushing outlet (32) is in fluid communication with the pan bowl (28). A flushing water inlet (30) is in fluid communication with the pan bowl (28). An inwardly facing first sidewall (34) extends substantially around the top of the pan bowl (28). A substantially horizontal ledge extends (36) substantially around the bottom of the first sidewall (34). An inwardly facing second sidewall (37) extends substantially around the pan bowl (28) under the horizontal ledge (36). A flushing water flow splitter (38) is substantially adjacent a rearward end of the first sidewall (34), the flow splitter (38) is in fluid communication with the flushing water inlet (30) and has a leftwards outlet (38a) and a rightwards outlet (38b).
