INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 22, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- With continued strength and
stabilization being seen across the housing market as well as improvement in
overall remodeling activity, Delta Faucet Company is pleased to showcase its
latest design innovations and technologies for the home at the 2013
International Builders' Show (IBS) in Las Vegas, January 22-24. The Delta^®
brand will exhibit its platform of smart solutions, which address the growing
trend of technology in the home, especially busy areas such as the kitchen,
where added functionality can have significant impact.

"As technology continues to play a significant role in our daily lives,
consumers are looking to integrate smart solutions that offer efficiency
throughout their home," said Bob Rodenbeck, director of research and
development for Delta Faucet. "In the kitchen and the bath, Delta Faucet
continues to lead the industry in new product innovations, from our
Touch[2]O^® Technology, which allows users to turn their faucets on with a
simple tap, to our H[2]Okinetic™ Technology, which delivers an even more
drenching and satisfying shower without using more water."

Delta kitchen technologies reinvent the user experience
Touch[2]O Technology continues to improve the way consumers interact with
their kitchen faucet by affording precise and reliable control to activate the
flow of water exactly when and where it's needed – even when hands are full or
messy. In 2013, Touch[2]O Technology will continue to serve as a cornerstone
to the Delta brand's smart solutions approach with the addition of new styles
such as the Cassidy™ collection, which includes faucets featuring the
technology.  

With Touch[2]O Technology, once the manual handle is moved to an on position
users can simply tap anywhere on the spout, hub or handle of the faucet to
turn on and off the water stream. Touch[2]O Technology makes it easier to turn
on the water flow when hands are messy or turn off the water when it is not
needed between tasks, potentially helping to save water. It also reduces the
potential for cross-contamination while keeping the faucet cleaner.

Many Delta kitchen faucets with Touch[2]O Technology also feature other Delta
product innovations, including MagnaTite^® docking, which keeps pull-down
spray wands firmly in place when not in use by using a powerful integrated
magnet, and DIAMOND™ Seal Technology, ensuring "like new" operation for the
life of the faucet.  

Delta Faucet brings new innovations to the bath
Delta H[2]Okinetic showers help create the feeling of more water without using
more water. This technology can now be found in the brand's new In2ition^®
two-in-one showers. In2tition showers with H[2]Okinetic technology feature a
detachable hand shower, which can run separately or simultaneously with the
fixed showerhead, giving the user the comfort of water streaming from the
showerhead in any position and the flexibility to accomplish other tasks, such
as bathing children, washing pets and cleaning the shower. 

Also on display at this year's show will be working lavatory faucets with
Touch[2]O[.xt]^™ Technology, the brand's latest bathroom advancement.
 Touch[2]O[.xt] ^ Technology unites Delta Touch[2]O Technology with hands-free
sensing. An available option on lavatory faucets in the Addison^® and Lahara^®
bath collections, users can touch it on and touch it off, or have an entirely
hands-free experience.
