Dual Flush Toilets


When we studied water last year, one of the things we discovered was that toilets consumed more water, on average, than anything else in the typical home. This fall we remodeled a bathroom in our home, and decided to take the opportunity to add 2 dual-flush toilets and see how they work. I'm happy to report they are great! In case you are not familiar with these toilets, the picture above shows how they work. You push the smaller button (.9 gallons per flush) if you are flushing down liquid waste, and the larger button (1.6 gallons per flush) for solid waste. This model is a Toto Aquia Dual Flush Toilet.
