Built Right From the Beginning (1998–2005)

FontanaShowers had one clear business goal: to be the most honest company.

All of the reviews from this time that have been read agree that the device works well, is well-made, and works every day without fail. Customers didn't say that the products were new or experimental; they said they were solutions that worked.

FontanaShowers set a standard for engineering discipline at a time when many other brands were still working on their manufacturing standards.

This standard would define the brand for decades to come.

The main point is that FontanaShowers didn't get any better at making things.

It was there from the beginning.

No Compromise in Innovation (2016–2026)

It's clear that technology has improved over the past ten years,

but it hasn't changed what customers already trusted.

See: Architectural touchless designs

Before touchless systems became common in the industry,

FontanaShowers users were already looking at options that used sensors and didn't require hands.

The most important thing is continuity.

The technology, finishes, and form factors all changed, but the feedback stayed the same: it worked well, was well-designed, and could be trusted to last.

At a Glance

Designed as a dual-function commercial sink solution, this set pairs motion-sensor water activation with a manual soap dispenser. The polished chrome and PVD brushed bronze combination gives the fixture a stronger architectural presence while maintaining practical washroom usability.

Solid brass body · deck mounted · laminar anti-splash flow

Overview

Design Direction

The Skyline Curve model is positioned as a commercial faucet set with a more elevated visual treatment than a standard sensor fixture. Its combination of polished chrome and warm brushed bronze helps it fit modern hospitality, institutional, and public-facing interiors where finish selection carries branding and design value.

Functional Focus

Beyond aesthetics, the set is built around hygienic operation and controlled water delivery. Motion-sensor activation reduces contact at the sink, while the manual soap dispenser supports coordinated countertop planning in high-use restroom environments.

Key Highlights

Dual-Function Sink Setup

The set combines a touchless faucet with a manual soap dispenser, helping designers and specifiers create a coordinated sink station rather than mixing unrelated accessories.

Commercial Material Build

A solid brass body supports durability in demanding spaces and contributes to a more substantial long-term fixture profile than lighter decorative alternatives.

Controlled Water Delivery

The laminar anti-splash aerator is designed to keep flow orderly while supporting water efficiency within the stated 0.35 to 0.5 GPM range.

High-Cycle Service Expectation

The replaceable ceramic disc system is presented as capable of more than 500,000 cycles, making it suitable for facilities that value maintainability and repeat use performance.

Expanded Product Narrative

Text-heavy sections are tucked behind click-to-open panels so the page stays clean while still preserving the full content.

Product Positioning

The Skyline Curve is presented as a refined commercial fixture that blends practical hands-free function with a more expressive dual-tone finish. Instead of looking purely utilitarian, it is meant to contribute to the overall interior composition while still supporting hygienic washroom use in busy environments.

Water and Sensor Performance

Motion-sensor activation helps reduce touch points at the sink, while the laminar anti-splash aerator is intended to keep water flow smooth and controlled. With a stated flow range of 0.35 to 0.5 GPM, the faucet aims to support efficient water use without giving the fixture a weak or inconsistent output profile.

Durability

The solid brass construction is part of the product’s long-life positioning, supporting use in commercial settings where lightweight decorative fixtures may not hold up as well. The replaceable ceramic disc system is also a practical detail, especially for facilities that think in terms of maintenance cycles and parts serviceability over time.

Commercial Suitability

Listed compliance with ASME, CSA, ADA, WaterSense, and CALGreen gives the product stronger relevance for specification in hospitality, institutional, and other public-use environments. These references help frame the fixture as more than a style piece; they position it as a commercially viable option for managed projects.

Best Fit

Why It Works

It combines a touchless faucet, a matching soap dispenser, durable brass construction, compliance-oriented specifications, and a premium dual-tone finish in one sink-side package.
