How to look after your Smarti System and get the most from it.
Your Smarti urinal is designed to be water-free, low maintenance, and long-lasting — but like any system, a little care goes a long way.
This page is your go-to hub for everything you need to maintain, clean, and troubleshoot your Smarti system. Whether you’ve just had it installed or are years into using it, you’ll find all the support you need right here.
Smarti systems are simple to maintain, but consistency is key. Here’s what your cleaning team should be doing:
Daily spray with Steri-Kleen+ enzyme cleaner – just spray and walk away (no scrubbing needed)
Weekly check for debris or misuse
Keep the area dry – no need to flush or rinse with water
Never put bleach down the urinal – this will destroy the performance of the valve.

Frequently Asked Questions
Basic need-to-knows
General product information
-
A: Smarti is a 100% waterless urinal solution that replaces flushing with a patented multi-seal valve and enzyme-based technology. It actively prevents odours and blockages, while reducing environmental impact and improving hygiene.
-
A: Yes — and it’s been scientifically proven. Smarti was independently tested and shown to outperform flushing systems on hygiene and functionality. It’s already in use across hospitals, stadiums, restaurants and schools nationwide.
-
A: No. Smarti’s unique valve forms an airtight seal, while the enzyme pod breaks down waste and keeps pipework clean. With regular enzyme spray, there’s no stagnant water and no smell.
-
A: Absolutely. Scientific studies show flushing urinals release harmful aerosols and bacteria into the air. Smarti eliminates water from the system completely — reducing splashback, biofilm and contamination risk.
Installation & maintenance
-
A: Yes. Smarti valves are designed to be compatible with most standard urinal bowls, making them ideal for retrofit projects.
-
A: You can choose self-install with our easy conversion kit, or have our team handle it for you. We also offer free pre-installation surveys to tailor the system to your site.
-
A: Very little. Just top up the enzyme pod and spray the urinals with Steri-Kleen+ regularly. Full service contracts are available for customers who prefer hands-off support, including routine inspections.
Cost, contracts & support
-
A: Nothing upfront. You can install Smarti with zero capital outlay and start saving water (and money) from day one.
-
A: It eliminates flushing — so your water bills drop dramatically. It also reduces blockages, repairs and maintenance costs over time.
-
A: Regular site inspections, top-up supplies of enzyme spray and pods, performance checks, and fast-response support. It’s ideal for large or multi-site organisations that want peace of mind.
-
A: Yes. All customers have access to our technical team and dedicated account managers, whether you choose full service or self-maintain.
