Marata Vision introduces wall control plate for bathroom TV (3/5/2005)

Now available from Marata Vision is a wall control plate for the Aquavision bathroom television. This wall mounted LCD TV is popular in hotels, and the new control plate means that a hand-held remote control is no longer necessary.

Positioned at arm's reach from the bath, for example, the control plate proves just as handy as the current hand-held control, but without the inconvenience of the device being misplaced or removed.

"The new control will also be of interest to installers for residential markets," said Marata Vision's Bob Wheeler, "since it enables the Aquavision TV to be integrated into the overall lighting control system. For example, this allows the bathroom lights and TV to be switched on remotely before you enter the bathroom."

The control plate is designed to be hard wired, and fits into a standard single gang backbox. Its six touch sensitive buttons control the main TV functions. Output terminals enable interfacing with lighting control systems such as Crestron, Polaron, iLight etc.

Available in 15", 17" and 23" sizes, the Aquavision TVs have heated screens that prevent them steaming up. Completely safe for use in wet areas, they add luxury to bathrooms, saunas, spas and swimming pools, in public facilities such as hotels as well as in the home.
