Franklin Park, IL – Sloan has launched a new line of ASSE-1070 compliant faucets featuring Optimix^™ anti-scald technology. When cold water is running low, faucets may dispense uncomfortable, unsafe hot water. Sloan’s Optimix technology proactively works to prevent scalding in the event of cold water failure due to the industry’s fastest and most effective in-spout ASSE-1070 compliant anti-scald technology.

“Ensuring water is running at a safe, comfortable temperature is essential for any commercial application, but it is especially important in environments such as schools, hospitals, and eldercare facilities,” said Kirk Allen, Sloan co-president and CEO. “Sloan is proud to provide our Optimix anti-scald technology to deliver superior water temperature optimization.”

The new anti-scald innovation is available in Sloan’s most popular faucets — the Optima EAF200, EAF-250, and EAF-275. Sloan is currently the only manufacturer in the industry offering a solar-powered anti-scald faucet. The faucets feature an integrated thermostatic mixing valve on the side of the faucet body to easily set the water to a desired temperature. The valve’s lever can be removed for facilities where tamper resistance is required. Optimix ASSE-1070 compliant faucets can be easily integrated into both new and retrofit projects, reducing labor, time, and cost by up to 30%.
