At the PDC Summit, Chicago Faucets will showcase key solutions from its +Healthcare portfolio, each engineered to address the specific demands of clinical construction, compliance, and long-term facility operation:

Auto-Drain® Shower System —Reduce stagnant water in showers by automatically draining the shower pipe and shower hose after each use, supporting proactive water management strategies without compromising the durability required in high-use clinical settings.

Designed to meet the unique specification challenges of psychiatric and behavioral care units. Meets the New York Mental Health Guidelines.

Supporting Specification Confidence from Design Through Occupancy

For architects, engineers, and construction professionals working in healthcare, product specification is a high-stakes decision. The right choices reduce project risk, simplify coordination across trades, and ensure that critical systems perform as intended from day one — and for the life of the building. Chicago Faucets’ +Healthcare portfolio is designed to give specification teams the confidence that comes from more than 125 years of proven engineering.

The PDC Summit brings together the professionals responsible for planning, designing, and building healthcare facilities — a community where product selection carries consequences that extend well beyond project completion. For healthcare construction teams, the fittings specified today must perform reliably for decades, meet rigorous clinical standards, and protect both patient safety and the reputation of the teams who put them in . Attendees of the 2026 PDC Summit are invited to visit the Chicago Faucets booth to speak with product specialists and explore how the company’s +Healthcare solutions support durable, high-performance water delivery in clinical environments.
