    I live in an apartment and the neighbor above me installed one of these and likes to flush it every 10 minutes. It feels like living beneath a restaurant bathroom. The flush can actually be heard a floor below and at the end of the hallway a good 75 feet away. Is that heaven or what? Especially when you are woken up at 3 am in the morning.

    When you need to flush alot of waste you need to hold down the flush lever until its gone I know this because they have one of these toilets at the Salvation Army Church and I used to clean there,That's how I know.Very good toilet I will be buying 2 of these in Biscut color for our house!

    Here's the real truth about pressure assist toilets: They really are not as effective as everyone says they are. Bowl rinse is usually not great, they are always loud and the flush is crazy sudden, plus 1 gallon per flush is way too short, which means that you can't get all of the waste down in one go.
    Some pressure assist toilets also tend to hard clog too, and remember about the exploding Sloan Flushmate 503 conundrum.

    This probably needs some adjustment in the water pressure coming in. I've seen this perform better than anything, but the inlet has to be a minimum water pressure of 25-40 psi to operate well

    • @worldview730

    I was so sick of clogs, I installed 3 of these pressure assist toilets. (but they were gerber toilets). Eliminated clogs.. only issue was water splatter under the toilet seat. I will be installing 3 more in my new house. A plumber did warn me that sometimes 1 gallon might not be enough to carry the affluent to the curb. Dunno if thats true or not.

      I have thought the same thing about limited water but once you wash hands after that follows up the flush with more water.

      @PlumbingPartsPro  3 года назад +2

      So 10 years ago I would have said no. Like anything new there are bugs... I feel they have made adjustments and tweeks to make them work very well. ALSO, they are louder than your normal toilet, like going to a restaurant and flushing the exposed chrome flush valves.

      @@weetzybat Honestly given how good of performers These are this has a chance of passing that. But still, the flush is completely unsanitary and almost always takes 2 flushes on normal use which completely defeats the purpose of low-flow. 1.6 is the lowest a toilet can operate on as seen by 2000's AS Cadets and Kohler Wellworth Ingeniums.

  • @floridiantoiletsandcompute9449
    @floridiantoiletsandcompute9449 2 года назад

    These are incredible preformers, don't get me wrong, but these ALWAYS need at LEAST 2 flushes! That automatically makes these some of the worst toilets ever. Simply put, these are completely unsanitary. If you want any modern toilet, pay LESS for a Project Source Pro-Flush. Or just try to find a vintage toilet such as the 1950's "Standard" Cadet or 1970's Kohler Wellworth. These are completely unsanitary and overpriced.

    These are some of the worst toilets ever. I have used these a lot and they require a second flush Every. Single. Freaking. Time. Almost every toilet in existence can take 12 feet of toilet paper so try something different that simulates the real thing.

    • @PlumbingPartsPro

      I have seen alot of pressure assisted toilets and typically not a fan, mainly due to the linkages in the trip lever getting out of wack but this one was pretty decent Especially since it's only a 1 Gallon per flush. There may be some better ones out there but they use 1.6 & 1.28 gpf. It's a good option for someone who wants an ultra low flush.
