Watch! Viral Video Reveals A Self-Cleaning Public Toilet's Function. How Does It Work?

Many individuals often steer clear of public restrooms due to numerous factors, with cleanliness and the fear of infection being a primary concern. Nevertheless, in some nations, the prevalence of self-sanitizing public toilets is on the rise. These innovative facilities boast cutting-edge technology, enabling them to autonomously maintain hygiene standards. Consequently, not only does this ensure a pristine environment for subsequent users, but it also mitigates the potential exposure to harmful pathogens. Notably, a viral video recently circulated on X, showcasing the automated cleaning process of one such toilet, sparking widespread intrigue and engagement among online communities.

The video, posted on X under the username 'How Things Work,' begins with an automatic closure of the toilet. Subsequently, the toilet retracts into a chamber, while water gushes out onto the floor. Once the cleaning process is complete, the flow of water ceases, and the door reopens.




Since its posting on April 6, the video has amassed nearly 16 million views, along with numerous likes and comments. The demonstration of the self-cleaning public toilet left many viewers astonished and intrigued by its innovative technology.

The internet was inundated with reactions to the video, with users sharing their thoughts and ideas. One individual wrote "This was one of my genius ideas from nearly 20 years ago that I soon found out had already been in use in Europe. I want the whole room cleaned though. Sink, doorknobs and all. Like, a light misting cleanser and then flush the whole room."


Another user commented, "We need these everywhere. Though might create quite the queue."
