Rada – Shower and Washroom Systems Delivering Safe Hot Water
The everyday business of washing your hands, taking a shower or bathing is not quite as simple as it seems.

These days hygiene is a big issue, whether it’s MRSA in hospitals or legionella bacteria in any water-based system, and your choices can make a huge difference.

Safety is equally important, because if water’s too hot or cold, it won’t just mean user discomfort or complaint, it can easily end in litigation.

For over 80 years, Rada – the commercial operation of Kohler Mira Limited – has specialised in providing the most suitable showering, hand washing and bathing solutions to hospitals, care homes and the work place.

Innovation is a key factor in Rada’s success. Rada was the first to develop a hands-free digital water control system – Rada Sense – and all-in-one thermostatic basin taps where the thermostat is located in the tap body, to ensure the delivery of hot water at a predetermined, safe temperature.

RADA SENSE – A REVOLUTION IN WATER CONTROL TECHNOLOGY
Rada Sense T3 – a revolution in water control technology. Rada have combined years of experience in producing thermostatic mixing valves with state-of-the-art technology to produce the world’s first commercial digital mixing valve. Rada Sense is controlled by “T-logic” intelligence making it smarter, safer and more hygienic than other valves – plus it is the first no-touch on/off sensor to include temperature control.

TMV3 Approved, 10+ global approvals, designed to EN61508
T-logic technology carries out eight safety tests 40 times per second
Aids, records and carries out thermal disinfection routines
Programmed to carry out regular flushing to help combat legionella growth
Perfect solution for no-touch tap requirements
Rada Sense is available for showers, washbasins, baths, bath/showers and bidets – each outlet is programmable and can be set to deliver water for a preset period and within a pre-determined temperature range. Rada Sense is the first mixing valve that aids, records and carries out thermal disinfection routines and it can be programmed to carry out regular flushing “duty flushing” to ensure that water in pipework in under utilised areas cannot become stagnant.

RADA THERMOTAP-3 – THERMOSTATIC BASIN TAP
A conventional tap will deliver high temperature hot water, unless a thermostatic mixing valve is installed separately. This can be both time consuming and involve expensive alterations to pipework. Why not combine the two? The Rada Thermotap-3 is both a basin tap and a thermostatic mixing valve in the one unit.

TMV3 approved for healthcare applications
Easy maintenance above the basin
Simple installation
Eliminates unnecessary pipe deadlegs
Choice of 100mm and 150mm levers
A truly practical solution, the Rada Thermotap-3 is ideally suited to hand washing needs in hospitals and nursing homes.

RADA UNATHERM-3 – HOSPITAL BASIN TAP
Another first for Rada the Unatherm-3 is a hospital basin tap with integrated thermostatic control. It removes the hassle of having to install a separate mixing valve behind a panel.

TMV3 approved for healthcare applications
Easy maintenance – no panel removal required
Easy to use – single lever operation
HTM 64 compliant
Choice of basin or panel mounting
Biocote anti-microbial technology
For the first time, there is an alternative to the traditional dual lever control design, which requires a separate mixing valve to deliver safe temperature water. It’s easier for nurses to use and maintenance staff no longer need to remove panels to access separate valves for servicing. With the recent addition of Biocote anti-microbial technology, based on the active agent silver, the Rada Unatherm-3 is also assisting in the fight to control cross-infection in hospitals.

RADA AUTOTHERM-3 BSM – FULLY THERMOSTATIC BATH SHOWER MIXER
Combining true innovation and ultimate safety, the Rada Autotherm-3 BSM is the only bath / shower mixer on the market capable of meeting the stringent TMV3 healthcare standard for such products.

TMV2 and TMV3 approved for healthcare applications
Safe to touch external surface
Easy maintenance – above the bath
Special Category 5 shower fittings option
What makes the Autotherm-3 BSM unique is its ability to automatically re-set a lower, safe showering temperature, where a higher bathfill temperature had previously been selected. The Autotherm-3 BSM is another example of Rada’s commitment to deliver innovative and technology leading products for the healthcare sector.
