In the US this would become a shower for the homeless or be used for drinking water more than used for it's intended purpose. The first being a real deterrent for businesses installing them. It would end up in higher water bills/usage (since we double our bills in some areas for high usage) so it wouldn't really be economical. Not to mention all the other weird "accidents" that would occur due to people not really being wise to their usage method.
The other issue is, the frequent droughts here and water shortages as most Americans are far from conservative about utility usage in their home and are laborious about watering their lawns. Having this in a public restroom to be used/abuse by the general public would only exacerbate the water shortages and no doubt, they would have to shut them off during droughts.
I actually think this is very useful, but not sure how I would go about using it without getting water all over the place. I am used to the bidets that are installed within the toilet itself and accessible by a button. Women carry fishbowls with them everywhere, so practically speaking we can fit all this utility in our purse... for the most part
