JOHNSON SUISSE LISTO SMART TOILET

Inspired by minimalism, the European manufactured and designed Listo Smart Toilet combines a rimless pan with integrated bidet functions, infrared sensor and comfort extras for a high-spec fit-out option without the need for multiple separate units.

Installation is straightforward with clear connection points for both water and power. The compact back-to-wall design helps in tighter spaces, while still allowing for service access.

A retractable hygiene nozzle has five different positions to provide greater comfort for every user and cleans itself before and after each use to ensure maximum hygiene

The rimless design reduces trapway blockages, while the seat, cover and nozzle can all be easily detached for further cleaning as desired.

For added comfort, an LED light located at the rear of the seat guides users to the toilet, without having to turn on the bathroom lights, while soft-close hinges ensure quiet lid operation.

What’s more, the Listo Smart Toilet has an Integral High Hazard Backflow Prevention device and is a strong choice for premium residential or commercial projects, where design, comfort and hygiene combine.
