by Ann Withanee — November 1, 2010—Hollywood Casino Lawrenceburg, the largest riverboat casino in the U.S., captures the glamour of 1930s art deco Hollywood, while adopting the latest technology and guest comforts. This includes sensor-activated plumbing systems from Sloan Valve Company for convenience and hygiene in the public restrooms.

The riverboat casino, which can accommodate almost 9,000 guests, and the land-based boarding annex in Lawrenceburg, Ind., collectively have 167 Optima ES-S sensor-activated water closet Flushometers and 58 urinal Flushometers. In addition, Hollywood Casino installed 100 European-styled Optima i.q. sensor-activated faucets with user-controlled settings that allow restroom visitors to adjust water temperature and flow.

Hollywood Casino’s chief engineer, Doug Elmore, has long used Sloan plumbing in the marine industry and speaks highly of how well Sloan products have worked in both the new riverboat and its retired predecessor. He especially appreciates how little maintenance the Sloan Flushometers and faucets require, which makes his job easier.

Sloan Valve Company is a world leading manufacturer of commercial plumbing systems and is at the forefront of the green building movement and provides sustainable restroom solutions by manufacturing water- and energy-efficient products such as Flushometers, electronic faucets, soap dispensers and vitreous china fixtures for commercial, industrial and institutional markets worldwide.
