A toilet and bathroom exhaust system of the present invention provides a single system that handles both the removal of noxious air in an around the toilet and dehumidification of the air in the entire room. An intake manifold may be configured to be 1) attached to the bottom of the toilet lid; 2) attached to the top of the toilet rim; or 3) integrated into the toilet rim with the water drainage supply lines for flushing. The noxious air can be routed via an exhaust fan outside the house. The exhaust fan may also be configured to route noxious air into the trap area in the toilet. Proximity and humidity sensors may be used for further control and automation of the system.

A toilet management system includes a toilet bowl device installed in a toilet room, a management device configured to manage a use situation of the toilet bowl device, and a communication device configured to transmit use situation information related to the use situation of the toilet bowl device to the management device. The management device includes an acquirer configured to acquire the use situation information from the communication device, and an abnormality detector configured to detect an abnormality of the toilet bowl device or a facility or equipment installed inside or around the toilet room when the use situation information acquired by the acquirer matches a predetermined condition.

A method and apparatus for conditioning an RV/Marine toilet bowl seal are disclosed, including providing an apparatus comprising a plug comprising a handle portion; and a solid foam coupled to the handle portion; wherein the handle portion is configured to allow a user to insert or remove the solid foam of the plug from a discharge opening of an RV/Marine toilet bowl; and wherein the solid foam is configured to make contact with at least a portion of the RV/Marine toilet bowl seal; pouring a conditioner into the discharge opening of the RV/Marine toilet bowl; inserting the plug into the discharge opening of the RV/Marine toilet bowl such that the solid foam contacts with at least a portion of the RV/Marine toilet bowl seal; and rotating the plug by about a quarter of a turn. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

This invention relates in general to a plumbing system, but more particularly to a toilet system which employs the use of automatic, adjustable pedestals which are contained in the base of the toilet and are activated by pressing a button. Inherent to this design is the fact that the pedestals are contained directly in the base of the toilet itself. The pedestals adjust to the desired height of the user to achieve the most efficient alignment of the spine to defecate in the most comfortable manner to cleanse the bowels completely.

Methods and systems for equipping a toilet with hygiene and safety features by controlling and reducing potential escape of liquid waste from the toilet.

A toilet odor elimination device is provided that resides below a water tank lid of a water tank and includes a housing with an intake chamber, a filter chamber in operational relationship to a micro fan chamber, a tubular exhaust tube and an at least one battery storage chamber. The toilet odor elimination device is activated by an on/off switch that resides in an electrical relationship to a power source located in the at least one battery storage chamber.

An apparatus for raising and lowering one or more pedestals of a toilet. The toilet can comprise of an encasing positioned at the base of the toilet, operable to retain the one or more pedestals when not in use. The toilet can comprise of one or more armrests positioned at the sides of the toilet. The one or more armrests can comprise of one or more buttons configured to raise or lower the one or more pedestals based on user selection to a predetermined height; and one or more buttons configured to activate one or more of a seat warmer, a bidet jet spray, a hydro-flush, a sound system or an air freshener. The toilet can comprise of an actuator for raising and lowing the pedestals in response to one or more buttons being pressed. The toilet can comprise of a controller for controlling the actuator, wherein the controller sends a signal to the actuator to raise or lower the toilet based on the combination of one or more buttons being pressed. The controller can receive a signal from one or more buttons pressed to indicate a predetermined selection, wherein the selection can be one or more of the activations of a seat warmer, a bidet jet spray, a hydro-flush, a sound system or an air freshener.

An automatic dispensing device for volatile fluid operable to apply one or more agent to a local environment for more than 14 days. A dispensing device may nonexclusively operate by evaporation of volatile fluid from a carrier material that is somehow infused with the volatile fluid; gravity-induced drip from a bulk supply of volatile fluid through a small orifice onto an emanator; osmotic transfer of volatile fluid through the emanator from a bulk supply; gas-pump drive of volatile fluid to the emanator at controlled pressure or volume; or diffusion of volatile fluid through a wall of a container of bulk volatile fluid; and combinations thereof.

Urinal screens are provided including an outer ring and a web portion bounded by the outer ring and formed from a plurality of web strings disposed in a mesh pattern, such that a plurality of open areas are defined among the web strings. The web portion includes a vaulted portion. Urinal screen assemblies are also provided and include a urinal screen and a bioenzymatic block containing odor combatting chemistry disposed in a void formed by the vaulted portion of the urinal screen.

A urinal assembly having a frame and a plurality of posts or posts extending from the frame. The frame can include a plurality of openings. The openings can be defined by a plurality of sides and corners. The posts can extend from the corners and/or from the sides of the openings. In some embodiments, posts extend from a first face and a second face of the frame.
