Home Improvement<br />
From a cutting-edge faucet system to a light fixture<br />
that doubles as wall art, these residential products<br />
range from the practical to the purely decorative.<br />

Humidifier<br />
Dyson’s Air Multiplier<br />
technology, which<br />
was first introduced<br />
in the company’s<br />
bladeless fans, is<br />
being applied to humidifiers.<br />
Launching<br />
this coming fall, the<br />
units utilize an<br />
ultraviolet cleansing<br />
system to kill 99.9% of<br />
bacteria in the water<br />
before using the<br />
multiplier technology<br />
to distribute clean<br />
mist evenly into a<br />
space. The minimalist<br />
standing ring comes<br />
in three colors.<br />

CP-155 LS Sliding Door<br />
European company Reynaers has opened a North American<br />
headquarters and manufacturing facility to produce its<br />
slim-profile aluminum windows and doors, such as CP-155<br />
LS, locally. This monorail sliding-door system, shown on<br />
the lower level of a house in Switzerland by Daluz/Gonzalez<br />
Architekten, can span up to 12' high or wide (up to a<br />
900-pound limit), maximizing vistas while maintaining<br />
wind- and watertightness. reynaers.us CIRCLE 202<br />
eUnit Kitchen<br />
Precise control of water temperature<br />
and volume doesn’t have to<br />
be reserved for baths and showers.<br />
Dornbracht’s eUnit Kitchen<br />
applies Smart Water technology<br />
to kitchen sinks for tasks ranging<br />
from washing to filling pots.<br />
Two knobs adjust flow and<br />
temperature, which are digitally<br />
displayed on a control unit that<br />
also records preferred settings.<br />
Other conveniences include a foot<br />
sensor that allows for hands-free<br />
operation and a button-controlled<br />
electronic drain. dornbracht.com<br />

Thermostatic Trim<br />
Hansgrohe’s new sleek thermostatic<br />
trim offers just the<br />
essentials. Measuring 6⅛" square<br />
x ¾" deep, the faceplate houses<br />

between showerhead and<br />
hand shower, a 2"-diameter dial<br />
that controls the thermostatic<br />
cartridge, and an anti-scald safety<br />
stop. Also available in a singlefunction<br />
format, the trim is<br />
finished in chrome.<br />
