At a touch

It had to happen. Just when you thought you had seen it all, the technology whiz kids come up with another way to improve the basics of everyday living.

Considering the infiltration of technology into every other area of the home, it is probably not surprising that the bathroom has also benefited from new developments. And nowhere is this more evident than in the collection of fixtures and fittings featured at The Kohler Store.

The sleek Kohler DTV II shower control is just one example of the kind of technology that is changing our everyday lives. As with the first digital interface launched last year, the new DTV II controls all the water functions of your shower, including multiple showerheads, hand showers and body sprays. In addition, the upgraded DTV II adds music, ambient lighting, chromatherapy and steam to provide a completely integrated sensory experience, which is customized to your personal preferences.

The Kohler Store also presents the new Kohler C3 toilet seat, which represents a major advance in bathroom technology, says Kathryn Streeby, marketing director for Kohler sanitary products.

"The new C3 toilet seats seamlessly infuse bidet functionality, making it easy for people to enjoy the benefits of water-based cleaning," Streeby says. "Using either a side or remote control, users can control wand-spray cleansing operations, and the temperature of the water and seat."

The C3, which is available in two models, features a night light and Quiet-Close¢ functionality to close the seat slowly with just a slight touch to eliminate seat slamming.
