Twyford Bathrooms Alcona Bathroom Suite

Twyford Bathrooms have been listening to the market and their customers and created Alcona, a water saving bathroom suite with style but a credit crunching price.

The Alcona Suite can help a home reach the Code for Sustainable Homes by saving hundreds of litres a year with the UK's lowest flushing WC and new water saving brassware called Aquations.

The Code for Sustainable Homes sets minimum standards for water use in new homes - it is now a mandatory Government requirement to provide ratings against the code for all new homes in the Home Information Packs (HIP).

All new social housing must be built to a minimum of level 3 (the Code runs from 1 - 6) and the Alcona Flushwise WC and water saving taps can form an important part of achieving that target. Alcona offers water saving at great value and should become the product of choice in the social housing arena. All Twyford Flushwise products, including Alcona are manufactured to achieve the required UK flushing standard EN 997 Class 2, only product that conforms to this standard is guaranteed to clear the WC properly on every flush.

The Flushwise WC system is unique, it flushes at 4 or 2.6 litres and unlike most low flushing WC's the Flushwise retains the power behind the flush, reducing the water required by up to 60%.

In fact the WC has been awarded the Waterwise Marque from the prestigious independent body Waterwise, who work in conjunction with Government, water authorities and consumers to raise awareness of water usage in the home.

The taps are dual action, the first click lets water flow at 2.5 litres per minute, and if a more powerful flow is required a second click will allow a flow of 5 litres a minute.

The Alcona bathroom suite from Twyford also offers style and choice, from the traditional full pedestal sink and close coupled WC to wall hung for a more contemporary look and a range of accompanying bathroom furniture to maximise space without compromising on style. The WC's also come with the option of a soft close seat, a first for a suite at this price point.

The Alcona suite is perfect for builders in search of a bathroom suite that is contemporary yet affordable as well as for house builders in search of a contemporary bathroom aesthetic that will protect their margins.

So for an environmentally friendly and stylish yet affordable bathroom suite look no further than Alcona by Twyford Bathrooms.
