Creating an Eco Friendly Kitchen - Tips From Moen


The green movement is flowing into the kitchen as Moen Canada continues to revolutionize the industry with the introduction of its first green kitchen faucet in the retail channel.

The Dorsey™ Eco-Performance kitchen faucet allows users to easily switch between three unique water-flow settings. For everyday tasks that require a constant, yet low-water flow, such as washing dishes or preparing foods, homeowners can choose new eco-performance standard or aerated spray modes. These settings provide a reduced flow rate of 6.6 litres per minute (L/min), which translates up to a 32 percent water savings. However, for tasks that require a set amount of water, such as filling a pot or pitcher – they can press a button, which brings the flow back to the standard 8.3 L/min rate.

“We are thrilled to be the first in the retail kitchen category to offer homeowners a water-saving kitchen faucet that still provides the exceptional performance they have come to expect from Moen,” said Peter Fealy, vice president, sales and marketing - retail, Moen Canada. “And beyond offering a sustainable faucet, this product features a stylish design with consumer-preferred pullout functionality.”


Why are Moen's Eco-Performance Faucets So Wonderful?

Dorsey Eco-Performance kitchen faucets offer a traditional style with elegantly detailed single-handle pullout design. Offered in Chrome and LifeShine® Classic Stainless finishes, Dorsey can be featured as a single-hole installation to fit beautifully into solid-surface countertops; with a coordinating soap/lotion dispenser; or with a coverplate if a three- or four-hole sink application is desired. The ergonomically designed, multi-function pullout wand includes a fibre hose with a ball joint at the end of the wand for quiet operation and easier maneuverability when rinsing the hard to reach corners of the sink or when moving the wand outside of the sink area. Additionally, Dorsey features Moen’s patented Hydrolock® installation system which snaps the faucet and supply lines together with a telltale “click” for a quick, easy and secure connection.

Eco-friendly consumers have also been very pleased with Moen's line of bathroom products and fixtures.
