Stanton Correctional Facility
With the cost of water and sewage skyrocketing, water conservation is a huge issue in prisons, where inmates can act out by abusing their toilet and shower privileges (flood their cells, flush large items to clog the system, etc.). Not only does the system create a more controlled environment to curb unwanted behavior; it helps to drastically reduce the prison’s water and sewer bills, as well as its maintenance costs.

Electronically operated Sloan Flushometers, designed as part of a one-piece toilet and sink combination, limit toilet flushes per hour and block inmates if they try to flush again.
The PWT® Shower Systems control the entire shower operation in high abuse applications, limiting usage and saving the prison thousands of gallons of water per day.
The system’s control center calculates and monitors water usage in real time, in every square inch of the prison.
Plumbing chases that house the main PWT system are housed behind the walls, away from inmate access and abuse.
The customer service that we’ve received [from Sloan] has been extraordinary. When we need something, they take care of it. The PWT system is really easy to use and trouble shoot. We can monitor water usage in each cell quickly from one central location.
