What is SMART washroom technology?

Reading time: 3 minutes / Updated: July 26, 2024

SMART washroom technology leverages advanced systems and connectivity to enable real time monitoring and management of SMART-enabled commercial washroom products.

This involves using sophisticated hardware and software solutions that are interconnected through the Internet of Things (IoT). This connectivity allows SMART washroom products and SMART washroom systems to communicate with each other.

Knowing how powerful SMART washroom technology is and its benefits, Dolphin Solutions has integrated a SMART washroom management system into our own office washrooms and in several projects with integration into Building Management Systems (BMS).

Learn more about what SMART washroom technology is, the key characteristics of SMART technology in washrooms, and how a SMART washroom system works.

Characteristics of SMART technology in washrooms
