Refresher

Refresher, or 'fresher—sometimes though rarely called bathrooms, rest rooms, or waste-disposal units—were rooms intended for the purpose of washing, bathing and releasing bodily wastes. Refreshers were known to contain any of the following fixtures: a shower—or sonic shower, sanisteam or turboshower—a bath—or sonic bath or ripple bath—a faucet and sink, effluvial rinser, toilet, and sanitizer. They came in various configurations, from small freshers for starships, to large ornate rooms in private residences. The temperature of the refresher was usually adjustable. Some refreshers contained privacy screens.

The term "refresher" is alternatively used to describe a toilet alone, rather than the whole washroom. Publicly-accessible refreshers could have stalls of varying sizes to accommodate species as large as Hutts. In addition to a toilet, multispecies public refresher stalls could also be equipped with various waste collection devices such as urinals, troughs, collection rods, and telescopic suction drains.
