Overview: The privy, the john, the lav — restrooms go by many names, and their designs can vary widely. However, all have one trait in common: some thought and planning can help ensure that they’re built and operated as cost-effectively as possible, for as long as possible. When looking at a restroom design or renovation, it’s easy to focus on the up-front costs. However, those aren’t the only costs to consider. Facility executives will want to consider the traffic patterns the room is likely to see, and select the fixtures to accommodate expected use. All equipment should be durable and easy to install and maintain. Facility executives also might want to look into fixtures that control the use of consumable products, such as soap and paper towels. Finally, products that resist vandalism also can help extend the life of the restroom.
