Response

Why do I need auto-flush?
Manual works OK and is cheaper

Public: public washrooms have been adopting autoflush for many years, to improve hygiene. However, a “dumb” autoflush system wastes a lot
of water, costing you more. IPEE Buddy saves water, money and delivers market leading hygiene

Residential: IPEE Buddy offers a premium bathroom experience, with intelligent, automatic, touchless controls offering the best hygiene and sustainability

My manual flush system has short and long flush controls

Research shows that people generally use long flush, wasting more water than necessary. And manual flush systems still have the hygiene issues that are the reason so many customers are moving to autoflush systems

Water is cheap. Why should I care if my autoflush uses a lot?

Water costs are continuously rising, and environmental regulations are increasingly demanding water saving measures. IPEE Buddy offers up to 50% water saving, which can deliver an ROI of under 2 years.

Small flushes don’t solve cloggings, limescale and urine stone

IPEE Buddy can be optimised to ensure highly efficient water use without
allowing for these issues.

It’s expensive

The initial additional cost you might pay for IPEE Buddy, compared to cheaper “dumb” systems, is more than paid back by the water and operational savings during the toilet’s lifetime. In fact, the whole toilet can be paid back in as little as two years in high-use environments.

Technology is fragile and complicated

The technology built into IPEE Buddy has been proven in thousands of real-world installations over several years. Sensors are contained within the unit so are not exposed to accidental or deliberate damage, and the flushplate is robust and designed for washrooms environments. We provide regular firmware updates remotely, ensuring smooth and
reliable operation. Setting up, updating and adjusting settings for IPEE Buddyo are easy with our free IPEE app. The benefits our technology bring solve long-standing problems with public and private toilets.

Installing a power supply adds complexity

IPEE Buddy is easy to install to a nearby power supply, and can be performed by a regular installer

What happens if there is no power?

Just like everything else in the building that requires power, your toilet will not flush. However, as soon as the power comes back on, your toilet will work perfectly as if nothing happened.

How can I be confident of the quality and support

We offer full IPEE warranty, plus excellent remote support and on-site service where needed. All parts have been tested and proven through thousands of installations over several years.
