Caroma Somerton Smart (829110 / 829109)
The Caroma Somerton Smart (Lever) Dual Flush Toilet is a high-efficiency, water-conserving fixture that blends contemporary design with outstanding functionality. This model not only provides substantial water savings but also boasts several innovative features:
Advanced Flushing Mechanism: The Somerton Smart utilizes a cutting-edge washdown technology that harnesses gravity to forcefully expel waste before water, unlike conventional siphonic toilets. This approach significantly reduces the likelihood of clogs both within the fixture and throughout your plumbing system.
Superior Clog Resistance: Engineered for maximum efficiency, the Somerton Smart features an exceptionally short and wide trapway, measuring more than double the size of standard toilets. This design makes clogging virtually impossible, ensuring consistent performance.
Versatile Installation: The Somerton Smart incorporates Caroma's patented Smart Connect system, designed specifically for fully skirted bowls. This highly adaptable installation method centers around an ingeniously simple offset adapter. By rotating the adapter, you can easily accommodate 10" or 12" rough-ins, or any measurement in between.
Hygienic Surface Technology: Caroma's proprietary Smart Glaze coating adorns the Somerton Smart's vitreous china surface. This nanoscale technology effectively repels liquids and oils while inhibiting bacterial growth. The result is a toilet that's not only easier to clean but also maintains its cleanliness for extended periods.
Comfort and Accessibility: The Somerton Smart doesn't compromise on comfort despite its impressive performance. This model is meticulously designed to provide exceptional user comfort while fully complying with ADA requirements, making it suitable for a wide range of users..
