Aging in Place Plumbing FAQs
Grab bars are one of the most important items to install for accessible bathrooms. Whether you need extra help sitting or rising from the toilet, or could benefit from some extra stability while you bathe and shower, grab bars are a simple way to make every day tasks less challenging. We install sturdy grab bars in accordance with ADA compliance so you will have the peace of mind that support is in place whenever and wherever you need it most.
Tempering valves – also referred to as anti-scald valves – protect you from burns and sudden extreme changes in water temperature from your faucets. Scalds can be extremely dangerous for those in advanced ages as well as children, whose skin is more susceptible to burns. By installing tempering valves, you are in control of the top temperature your hot water faucets can reach to prevent injury. By mixing cool water with hot, tempering valves greatly reduce the risk of burns and make scalding virtually impossible. We can install tempering valves directly to your hot water system to control whole-home water temperature or to specific faucets by attaching the valves to the hot water line.
Water leaks can wreak havoc on a home – especially if they are not taken care of right away. For individuals with disabilities or hearing or visual impairments, detecting a leak isn’t always easy. We recommend installing leak detection devices in every aging in place residence to prevent major damage from occurring as a result of a leak. Certain smart leak devices can even alert caretakers and family members of leaks so service can be scheduled even sooner. Ask us about our leak detection capabilities for extra peace of mind in your home.
Bidet toilet seats are not only a luxury item – they are sometimes a necessity for individuals with mobility issues or who are advanced in age. Bidet toilet seats are easy to use and have several settings and functionalities that aid in important personal hygiene and assist in independence.
Heated toilet seats provide warmth and added comfort for individuals aging in place. Installation of heated toilet seats is relatively simple and the user can begin experiencing the advantages of the seat immediately. Along with the obvious added comfort from warmth, heated toilet seats can also help with arthritic pain and stiff muscles.
Heavy, fast-closing toilet seats and lids can be a hazard for individuals with limited mobility or physical impairments. Gold Seal Plumbing recommends slow close toilet seats and lids for optimal safety of our aging in place customers. Slow close lids can be installed on your existing toilet or on any ADA compliant toilet.
Technology has come a long way in ease of use kitchen sink faucets. Perfect for those with visual or physical limitations, easy use faucets offer settings such as motion and touch activated on/off controls, automatic and voice command measuring systems, and so much more. Many of the latest kitchen sink faucets are even equipped with Alexa capabilities – just ask your faucet to perform simple commands (“Alexa – give me ⅔ cups water!”) and let the faucet do the work for you.
Those with physical limitations appreciate the ease of use of lever handle faucets. These faucets are specifically made with the user in mind and come in a wide variety of styles. With the unique easy grip design of these faucet handles help control water flow and temperature easily – preventing harmful burns and avoiding spraying water which can lead to dangerous slips and falls.
Sensor and touch faucets are a popular choice for both residential and commercial ADA compliant bathrooms. With a simple touch of the faucet or a swipe of the hand near the sensor, the water from the faucet turns on to a pre-set temperature. These high-tech faucets are highly beneficial both for ease of use and sanitary purposes.
