It really is pretty incredible that this sink can flush a shovel full of dirt! I think one reason for the 6.5 gallon flush on these sinks is just because they might be used to flush much greater amounts of wastes than what we flush in a toilet from a single use. It's possible that even buckets of wastes (not necessarily human) get flushed in some service sinks.
That thing is sweet! Toilets with concealed priming jets can struggle to flush heavy solids like rocks because they sink to the bottom of the trap and they are out of the path of the jet. In one of my Kohler Kenwyn videos, I flushed an old ball of plumbers putty that just sat at the bottom of the trap. All my exposed jet toilets will flush it, but none of my concealed jet toilets will.
That was impressive seeing that shovelful or dirt get flushed down, as was the distance that the water shot out of the discharge. Please keep your videos as they are, and talk all you want. I wish I could talk as well as you can while you're shooting videos. I'm finally getting around to editing the 3 videos that I made in 2020, and I have to cut out all my "bloopers".
Haha yea! I got it at my old salvage yard back when I lived in WA. I still haven’t gone to my new local restore yet. So Im hoping that when I go I’ll fine something neat!
I have a request for you. At the rear discharge outlet, put a curved pipe going down so it will siphon. I have always wanted to see something like that. So if you still have this service sink, then please and thank you.
Would that curved pipe cause a little back pressuresistance? Also the plumbing code wants the 1-1/2 or 2-inch vento be close to the fixture outleto break anyacuum so that water remains athe proper level in the bowl.
Interesting! Thank you. At Habitat for Humanity ReStore I boughthisame clinic service sink to mount in our garage. Shall plumb it into thexisting 3" PVC waste line from the powderoom toilet. *What ring seal do I use?* Should not have failed to flush outhose cloths. The dirt clump should not have remained. Appears the rim holes in the center of the rim will need to be a little bigger. Can you file those holeslightly larger? (Manyears ago I noticed that my girlfriend's toilet was not flushing well. Since 1966 mineralslowly building up from water evaporating in the holes was restricting the water coming out. Using white vinegar I manually removed the minerals. Toilet flushed like new - using too much water as 1966 toilets did. Should be replaced with a water-saving toilet.
Hospitals and morgues use them for flushing bodily wastes from bedpans and autopsies. Sometimes they are in campgrounds for disposing dish water and food scraps. The square bowl is much more convenient than a toilet bowl for dumping buckets and such. Service sinks are also designed to flush 6.5 gallons per flush.
When I worked in the ER, we had several of these service sinks. It's more convenient than a terlit since the bowl is wider, longer, and deeper. In addition to body wastes, body tissue, bedpan wastes, foods that don't need a garbage disposal, liquids from wound washings, old wet wound bandages, pliable paper, TP, which paper towels, IV bag contents, Rx, blood, small sponges, gauze, etc. You get the idea. Plastic tubing goes in the trash and needles go into sharps bin. Short pedestal sinks are usually mounted so the top of the sink is anywhere from 24" to 40" above the floor, but never on the floor. They are always on a raised base with sewer pipe access, like a baby Devoro on a pedestal to raise it up a little. They have terlit pedestal type sinks designed to be bolted to the floor. I never have seen a wall mounted service sink until this video. So they are rare. The morgue is a little different. They have both service sinks and terlits, one each per 2 stations. No seats on the terlits. In addition, they have a SS countertop with a big SS "farm sink" type built in with a commercial garbage disposal, one per station. I'm sure you've seen the famous "Dr G." autopsy series on TV. Gives you an idea. Her videos are also on the net.

Even the 2021 Mansfield Denali has struggled rocks with a siphon jet
I like these service sinks. First time I have ever seen one of these was in a hospital back when I was a kid. Great video as always.
This thing's amazing. I've always wanted to see one in person.
Funny thing is, its the high-powered toilets that do the worst flushes. The older standard ones mostly pass them through. The high-powered dont.
That's super cool! I've always loved service sinks.
Well, this is still better than a HighTrash and a Krapshit. Speaking of which, I wanna see the Krapshit fail every test next.
Well, looks like you have better luck shitting in an oversized sink than that those HighPilesOfTrash & that Shamateur...
keep talking dude, its great to hear u talking about ur interests so positively 😊👍
I've never seen a Clinic test like this before. Very cool! I've always liked Clinics, just because they are kind of unique.
I saw one of these at a hospital years ago. I’m not sure if they’re still used, but I thought it was so cool.
Nice video!!! Please continue longer video’s!! You have really good content!

You could use that clinic service sink as a squat toilet.
I have a request for you. At the rear discharge outlet, put a curved pipe going down so it will siphon. I have always wanted to see something like that. So if you still have this service sink, then please and thank you.

I like your voice and enthusiasm, so let's hear all your knowledge and even random words. Could still be rocks in the trap?
Btr: flushes
Subtitles: music

2012 AS Yorkville
Im not shocked that this is not a good performer. It has a very small trapway. Good bowl rinse overall.

what is a service sink for?
They are usually installed in hospitals or campgrounds. They are used to flush down stuff that is not needed. Such as old food. Or paper towels
