Basics Of Dual Flush Toilets

By Scott Rodgers


What is the difference between a dual flush toilet and a standard toilet? Both are quite same but the difference lies in the fact that the former one is intended to save water. It has got two knobs instead of the usual one. Both the knobs have different functions: one button gives a full flush and the other button operates a short flush. Even on full flush, this toilet requires less water.

The flushing of a toilet is one of the major uses of water within a household. Water is a necessary part of bathroom hygiene, however the traditional form of flush uses several gallons of water. That's why it is important to have a dual flush toilet at your home.

The way the dual flush toilet system works towards saving water is pretty simple. The dual flush toilet is a system, which gives its users the means to choose between two types of flush: one for solids and one for liquids. It uses half the water used by a regular flush toilet.

You can choose from innovative appearance and design of the dual flush toilet. Companies are trying to make them as easy to use, aesthetically pleasing and as comfortable as possible, so that more and more people get attracted to them. It gives you the option to choose from different styles of flushing mechanisms.

The law of gravity is used in dual flush toilets to remove waste through a large trap way. Earlier it used to be age old pressure siphoning. The dimension of the trap way has an additional benefit effect: it reduces the occurrence of clogs.

Installation process of dual flush toilets varies with the models. Some models may require professional installation or simply present a frustrating challenge for the homeowner.

Dual flush toilets in general require more frequent cleaning, as many models may leave some residue in the bowl when using the low volume flush option. This proves to be quite disheartening.

But just requiring more cleaning does not mean that you won't buy it. It still has more pros than the cons. They save money, reduce waste and are eco- friendly. A dual flush toilet may be the best option, if you are motivated to make the bathroom plumbing more efficient.
