Residential Pressure-assist toilets

[William Kacheton]

I was considering installing a toilet that uses the Sloan Flushmate pressure assist flushing mechanism in my house. I was concerned about the reliability of the mechanism. (I frequently see Sloan valves in commercial toilets failing to shut off.) Are the residential pressure assist toilets prone to failure and expensive to repair? I currently have a 7 gallon flush toilet, so having a clean flush is not a problem with my current toilet. I just want to save water.
