Claire M., Hospitality Design Project Manager – Nashville, TN
Project Type: luxury Hotel Guest Restroom Upgrade
Sample Timeline: Specified 2021 • Installed 2021 • Review Window: 4+ years
Use Case
Specified for 20 guest-facing restroom sinks in a luxury hotel where the design team wanted a softer
champagne finish, hands-free water control, and a warmer alternative to standard chrome commercial faucets.
Installation
The deck-mount installation worked well across the new vanity package. Fixture alignment stayed consistent,
and the champagne finish helped coordinate with mirrors, lighting trim, and warm-tone restroom hardware.
Performance
Sensor response stayed predictable through daily guest traffic. Water activation felt smooth, shutoff was
controlled, and the faucet reduced touchpoints without creating splash complaints at the basin.
Finish Durability
The champagne surface kept an even appearance under routine restroom cleaning. Minor spotting appeared in
harder-water areas, but the finish did not show peeling, dark edge marks, or uneven tone change.
Support Experience
BathSelect support helped confirm replacement sensor and internal service-part compatibility before the
second restroom phase. For future work, the team would stock matching parts from the same batch.
Best Fit
Recommended for luxury hotels, lounges, restaurants, office restrooms, luxury amenity spaces, and public
bathrooms where touchless function and champagne finish coordination both matter.
Performance Proof Summary
Project type: luxury hotel guest restroom sensor faucet upgrade.
Installation: Deck-mount fit was consistent across the new vanity package.
Sensor behavior: Reliable hands-free activation and controlled shutoff under guest traffic.
Water control: Smooth activation helped reduce touchpoints without adding splash complaints.
Finish: Champagne finish maintained an even tone with routine hard-water spot cleaning.
Service: Long-term planning should include matching sensor and internal service spares for multi-unit projects.
