1.6 gal. toilets

: Id like to hear from plumbers their thoughts on the 1.6 gal. toilets. How do they work? Do they work? Which ones work? Which ones dont work? Are you having to modify some toilets in the field to get them to adequately flush. ThanksSteve,The advent of the 1.6 toilet as opposed to the 3.5 toilet has meant more flushing, more call backs and more unhappiness with customers. The gravity toilets are at a disadvantage compared to the assisted flush toilets. A siphon toilet works when a quick force of water starts the siphon action. You can start a toilet flush by pouring a bucket of water right into the bowl. You have two options, the speed of the water or the volume of water. When volume is reduced, the speed of the applied force becomes more important. A good pressure assisted toilet will have greater drain line carry in the main sewer lines of the house. I have had customers that replaced 3.5 gallon toilets with pressure assisted toilets because they didnt like how the 3.5 toilets worked. You can imagine how the 1.6 gravity toilet versus 1.6 assisted compare! Consumer reports did an article in the February 1995 issue http://www.terrylove.com/crtoilet.htm in which they rated a number of toilets. A gravity toilet that they gave relatively good marks for an unassisted toilet is one that I sell. The Universal Rundle. As well as it works, I still do service calls to plunge the toilets. I like the quality of the Kohler Wellworth toilet with the Fluidmaster fill valve, good style and three bolt tank, however it still performs equal to the competition in its price range. When I sell to customers I recommend the pressure assisted toilets first, ( Gerber Ultra Flush, American Standard and others ) and then if that is out of the price range of the customer, I forewarn of the increased plunging of the gravity toilets. For many, they are happy to plunge some to save some money. It may be that toilets, because of the choices we are making to conserve water, will have to became a bigger ticket item in the future. We cant expect to save resources without applying better technology than we have in the past.Regards, Terry Love

Terry, really appreciate your web site. Im considering the Gerber Ultra Flush. What has been your experience with life span? How soon before valves and seals wear out? Are the items that wear out replacable by the home owner or do they require a plumber? What kind of costs are involved with replacing parts?Ill have to stop by and visit your store…Thanks much!

: In Australia the plumbing standard calls for a dual flush toilet system. The toilets use 6 litres for a full flush for solids and three litres for a half with liquid waste. The toilets manufactured by Caroma Industries are extremely reliable and environmentally friendly. They work on the European wash down system. In fact it is unusual to find a household in Australia that actually owns a plunger. That is how reliable the wash down system is, not to mention the massive water savings for the country. If you would like more information on Caroma water saving toilets please contact Sean Hegarty in the Export DivisionRegardsSean Hegarty : :

I have lost track of the number of complaints we have received on this subject, the concept is a great water saver, but the pedestal pan design is flawed, Caroma should get off the can and go back to the drawing board or at least listen to the trade and do something constructive other than trying to export the problem overseas.RegardsBill Edwards

Ive had the old 3.5 gallon toilets – never had any flushing problems. Then I went to a pressure assisted toilet. I found it to be too noisy. I tried a 1.6 gal at the onset of the water conserving push and found myself flushing two or three times. Ive been doing some research on the net for some time now and cannot believe peoples dismay over the 1.6 gallon toilets (been there). In Canada, 3.5 gallon toilets are still available. (and now I see why). I was able to find 3.5 gallon toilets at http://www.ssm.ca/masterbath .Good Luck Tony: Im in the process of building a new home and quickly being confronted with buying toilets.

I am with a Canadian Water Management Company that replaces 150 to 200 toilets per day with 1.6 gal toilets. We work with a number of manufatures, but it usually comes down to 2 products. American Standard, and a company called ToTo. To be honest ToTo is the best flushing 1.6 gal toilet I have come accross to date. I highly rcomend it, followed by American Standard, and in third place would be Western Potteries. All three are good flushers, but Toto is definatly the winner.

This is a serious question…even if it sounds ridiculous…so…please, please answer it if you can…. Do toilets really run clockwise in Australia? Thanks, J….

: This is a serious question…even if it sounds : ridiculous…so…please, please answer it if you : can…. : Do toilets really run clockwise in Australia? : Thanks, : J….Yes, think of it this way. put a little water in a glass , stir with your finger in clockwise direction, meantime take a look from beneath the glass and see which way the water flows. The glas is the earth, your spinning the water is the rotation of the earth, and from underneath, yep there she is, counter clockwise.
