Although they are simple in design, manual faucets enjoy their share of the market because of their inexpensiveness, ease of replacement or repair, and reliability. They are usually installed mainly in residential buildings and commercial buildings where the cost of the faucet and its ease of maintenance are an important issue. On the other hand, automatic faucets signify an advanced technology in faucet development. The faucets are fitted with sensor devices that enable the user to operate them without touching them. These are touchless faucets that recognize a user's hand to turn on the flow. The technology enhances hygiene, saves water, and reduces cross-contamination by minimizing the amount of water wasted with its precise control over the flow of water. With their advantages of ease of operation and improved hygiene, the demands of these automatic faucets seem to be increasing in public restrooms, hospitals, etc., and commercial establishments. Some models come with adjustable flow rates and temperature controls, making them even more appealing.
