Cube 3 Ultra High Efficiency Urinal

Product Review

The Cube 3 Ultra, from Caroma, is a smart urinal, using only 0.13 gallons per flush (gpf)/0.5 liters per flush.

The Smart Demand flushing system ensures optimal operational standards and efficiency. It uses an integrated smart logic system that detects the user and determines the flush mode accordingly. The flush duration is adjustable to allow for accurate determination of flush volume at varying pressures.

The Cube 3 Ultra also adjusts during periods of high usage. For example, if there are five or more uses within a three minute period, it adjusts to one flush/minute. It automatically reverts to normal flush volume during non-peak times.The urinal also has an automatic hygiene flush every 24 hours. This removes anything still in the drain line and protects the trap seal from drying out.
