Fontana ArcBlockâ„¢ Series Overview for Architects, Engineers & Contractors (AEC)

The Fontana ArcBlockâ„¢ Series brings a strong, rectilinear language to touchless faucets, emphasizing architectural simplicity, clear edges and planar surfaces. With models suited to deck and wall-mounted conditions, ArcBlock is optimized for AEC projects where detail alignment, finish consistency and lifecycle performance are essential.

Rectilinear, High-Visibility Design

The ArcBlock silhouette reads as a clean block form with minimal radii, pairing seamlessly with linear counters, large-format tiles and monolithic basins.

  • Sharp-edged rectangular body with subtle softening
  • Minimal visual clutter for modern commercial washrooms
  • Ideal for guest-facing and lobby-level restrooms

Engineered for Specification-Driven Workflows

ArcBlock supports AEC teams with clearly defined models, standardized rough-ins and data aligned to specification and BIM workflows.

  • Distinct deck- and wall-mounted ArcBlock variants
  • Standard rough-in dimensions for consistent coordination
  • Compatible with remote mixing and thermostatic valves

Optimized for Water, Energy & Maintenance

Intelligent sensor logic and low-flow aerators combine to reduce water usage while preserving a strong, controlled water presentation.

  • Typical flow rates in the 0.35–0.5 GPM range
  • ToF or infrared sensors tuned to ArcBlock geometry
  • Service-friendly components accessible for facility teams

Technical Highlights: Fontana ArcBlockâ„¢ Touchless Faucet Technology

Smart Sensor Technology & Block Geometry

ArcBlock leverages time-of-flight (ToF) and advanced infrared sensors calibrated to its rectilinear body and spout projection, minimizing splash and false activations.

Configurable detection range Stable activation in high ambient light Optimized for linear basin layouts

MultiFeed Soap System Compatibility

Combine ArcBlock faucets with synchronized touchless soap dispensers and centralized MultiFeed soap systems for visually aligned, high-throughput wash stations.

  • Shared access panels for soap and faucet controls
  • Coordinated timing between water and soap delivery
  • Reduced refilling frequency for large facilities

Power & Control Options

The ArcBlock Series supports flexible power strategies to accommodate retrofit conditions and new-build commercial projects alike.

ArcBlock Power Profiles
  • AC Powered – Optimal for high-traffic locations with dedicated power and centralized control.
  • DC / Battery – Suitable for retrofit upgrades and locations with limited wiring access.
  • Hybrid AC/DC – Ensures redundancy and uptime in mission-critical restrooms.

Ingress & Durability Performance

Control boxes and sensor assemblies can be specified to meet IP67-level protection on selected models, enhancing resilience when installed in compact vanities, islands and concealed service spaces.
