<p> FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 2012</p><p>GOING DIGITAL IN THE KITCHEN AND BATH WITH MOEN Products with Technology to Help Make Life Easier </p><p>North Olmsted, Ohio… When it comes to making purchases today, consumers know what they want – convenient solutions that reduce complexity and make life easier and more enjoyable. Based on research conducted by the Home Improvement Research Institute (HIRI), Moen found consumers are increasingly looking for options and experiences that provide relief from the pressures of modern living. With this in mind, manufacturers like Moen are creating time-saving, digital innovations and products, for both the kitchen and the bath, to help simplify consumers’ lives. </p><p>“Consumers are rediscovering the satisfaction found from life’s simple experiences and indulgences,” said Jack Suvak, senior director of research and insights, Moen. “At Moen, we strive to keep technology at the forefront and be the brand consumers rely on by developing a wide range of digital kitchen and bathroom products to fit the needs and lifestyles of all.”</p><p>In the Kitchen MotionSense™ Imagine the convenience of having a kitchen faucet that can sense what you’re trying to accomplish, and with a simple wave of the hand, immediately respond to your needs. New MotionSense™ from Moen utilizes advanced sensors to detect a user’s movement, setting water flow in motion, as if on command. With MotionSense, tasks like washing dishes, filling a glass of water and preparing the evening meal are simplified. It’s like having a second set of hands in the kitchen.  MotionSense provides an intuitive, hands-free kitchen faucet experience that relies on users’ simple hand movements to activate water flow  Faucets with MotionSense can be controlled in one of three ways: o The Wave Sensor at the top of the faucet starts and stops the water flow with a simple hand movement above the faucet o The Ready Sensor near the base of the faucet identifies when an object, like a cup or the user’s hand, is in close proximity to the faucet, running water for as long as that item remains in-range o The handle on the side of the faucet offers familiar, manual operation, letting users adjust flow and temperature</p><p> Hands-free technology reduces the spread of germs and diminishes the risk of cross contamination </p><p> Saves water when using Ready Sensor by supplying water only when the user’s hands or an object are within the sensing zone </p><p> Powered by a battery pack that utilizes standard AA batteries or an optional AC power adapter </p><p> The Arbor® pulldown kitchen faucet is the first faucet to offer MotionSense o Arbor features Moen’s Reflex® system on pullout and pulldown kitchen faucets, which improves overall hose and sprayer operation for an experience that is truly user friendly o Arbor offers transitional styling and is available in Chrome, Oil Rubbed Bronze, and new Spot Resist Stainless finish, which does just what it says – resists fingerprints and water spots</p><p>In the Shower and Bath ioDIGITAL® Moen brings the benefits of technology to the bathroom with ioDIGITAL®, the revolutionary, innovative and easy-to-use interface that gives consumers the ability to set and maintain water temperature and flow with electronic precision. The ioDIGITAL interface is extremely versatile and is available for three applications: vertical spa, shower and Roman tub. ioDIGITAL Vertical Spa For the ultimate blend of technology and indulgence, the ioDIGITAL vertical spa offers command of precise temperature and flow, four custom presets and one-touch activation of multiple water spray outlets. The consumer can choose custom settings with a showerhead, body spray, handshower or rainshower… or choose them all.</p><p>Specific features include:  Four easily programmable presets  LCD screen which displays the current temperature, active spray outlets and preset activation  Pause feature, which briefly interrupts the shower while the user shampoos or shaves, then returns to the previous settings  The wall-mounted interface is available in Chrome, Brushed Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze finishes  Optional remote control (available in Chrome or Black) offers the ability to turn the shower on from across the room, up to 30 feet away </p><p>The ioDIGITAL vertical spa trim components are built on the Moen® M•PACT® Common Valve System, which allows a homeowner to change the spa style or finish without having to change the valve. The ioDIGITAL vertical spa is available in nearly every Moen collection, to coordinate with any home décor. ioDIGITAL Shower Similar to the vertical spa functionality, the ioDIGITAL shower interface will recall a preferred temperature and flow at the push of a button, and the easy-to-read LED indicators will alert the user when the preferred shower matches the settings. No longer will homeowners have to guess if their shower has reached the right temperature – ioDIGITAL will alert them when it is ready.</p><p>Specific features include:  Four easily programmable presets  Simple dials (one for temperature/one for flow) which allow consumers to quickly and accurately set the preferred combination of temperature and flow  Pause feature, which briefly interrupts the shower while the user shampoos or shaves, then returns to the previous setting  The wall-mounted interface is available in Chrome, Brushed Nickel and Oil Rubbed Bronze  Optional remote control (available in Chrome or Black) offers the ability to turn on the shower from across the room, up to 30 feet away ioDIGITAL Roman Tub One of the most unique applications in the ioDIGITAL suite is the Roman tub.
