A.D.A ACCESSIBILITY COMPLIANCE
The Americans With Disabilities Act prohibits discrimination against physically impaired people in employment and in their access to the facilities, goods and services of most public places, retail stores and other businesses. The A.D.A also imposes a new building code on most commercial construction and on renovations of existing commercial buildings.
GROHE single-handle, lever-handle, and shower system products meet A.D.A requirements as described:
4.25.4 Operation. Controls and operating mechanisms shall be operable with one hand and shall not require tight grasping, pinching, or twisting of the wrist. The force required to activate controls shall be no greater than 5 lbs. (22.2N)
Shower Unit. A Shower spray unit shall be provided with a hose at least 60 in. (1525mm) long that can be used as a fixed shower head at various heights or as a hand-held shower. If an adjustable height shower head mounted an a vertical bar is used, the bar shall be installed so as not to obstruct the use of grab bars.
