Chicago Faucets has redesigned its website at chicagofaucets.com, which embodies the company's innovation and commitment to the growing needs of its customers.
"Our new website is intuitively easier to use, provides faster accessibility to product information, and delivers increased flexibility to accommodate your busy schedule," says John Fitzgerald, Vice President of Marketing for Chicago Faucets.
Two new major informational resources are the Product Configurator and Water Savings Calculator. The configurator allows visitors to build their own fittings online by mixing and matching standard components. The tool easily leads visitors through the process by showing appropriate choices based on product types and features. The Water Savings Calculator demonstrates how much water and money users can save by choosing either a Chicago Faucets 0.5 GPM electronic faucet or a 1.5 GPM metering faucet.
Other website highlights include:
- The latest products, which are just one click away through the use of scrolling menus
- Streamlined searching
- Easy, intuitive navigation
- Straightforward product details with direct access to product information
