GW6-15 Sonoran Waterless Urinal Bowl 
YouTube about GW6-15

The GW6-15 Sonoran waterless urinal bowl uses the same valve and "snorkel" technology as the popular GW6 cartridge. The urinal is manufactured in 9mm thickness glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) making it robust and resistant to damage. The urinal has a large footprint making it ideal for replacing standard flushing urinals and should cover any damaged wall coverings or tiling left from the previous installation

The Sonoran incorporates the latest version of the GW6-15 valve core with much faster drainage - approximately 12 litres per minute. This allows for more effective sluicing of the waste pipes to keep them even cleaner. Chemical resistance has also been much improved, particularly against bleach, to which silicone valves are particularly vulnerable. The dual valves are now manufactured in a special silicone to reduce the chance of damage from harsh cleaning chemicals, although these are still best avoided in order to maximise the life of the cartridge. 

Note:  The bowl shown in the YouTube video demonstrating the GW6-15 urinal system is not the Sonoran.  

Key Benefits:

  • Saves water, thus reducing energy and emissions 
  • Reduced expenditure on water and related sewerage costs
  • No floods
  • Unique dual valve technology for added protection against odours
  • Small, replaceable GW6-15 valve core typically lasts for 6-12 months
  • No sealant required
  • High drainage rate
  • Designed for concealed waste pipe
  • Improved privacy
  • Manufactured in 9mm thick tough fibreglass
  • No trap required - connects directly to waste
 Bowl Dimensions:  Height = 720mm  Width = 465mm  Projection from wall = 275mm
 
Includes:
- 1 x GW6-15 Sonoran waterless urinal
- 1 x GW6-15 housing, valve and removal key
- 2 x Wall hangers
Recommended Waste Fittings
For horizontal waste pipe— McAlpine T5M or T5M-A 1½" 90° Multifit Bend x BSP Coupling
 
Instead of a fluid barrier, the GW6-15 valve uses a silicone double-skirt valve which is tolerant of both water and common cleaning chemicals.

How to avoid blockages in waste pipes
Whilst the waste pipes of waterless urinals block less frequently than for most flushed urinals, uric acid salts can still form a sludge which eventually could cause a blockage. Sludge can be a particular problem if the waste pipes are shared with sinks or are poorly configured.  Gentworks recommends periodic sluicing with Bactericidal Cleaner to break down this sludge and carry it away into the main drain. The GW6-15 valve can be sluiced regularly; once every 2 to 4 weeks is recommended.  The solution used should be approximately 1 part Bactericidal Cleaner to 9 parts warm water from the washroom hot tap. If Bactericidal Cleaner is not available, using some soap in warm water instead will aid drainage.
