- That Waterguard (Waterwaster) is just pathetic! This is exactly why I don't like these piles of garbage. Worst vintage toilet ever. Don't get offended by my opinion and video evidence that Waterguards suck please.

I mean, when the dog chanted, it was enough courage to get the dish towel through…
Lol
I've always liked the Ingenium Wellworths, especially the round bowls. The flushes are smooth, neat, and powerful. One of the best low-flow toilets ever!
I love them. I'm saving one in case I need to install a lowflow toilet somewhere.
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations When will you do that save one to restore it?
@@meggiewillis9705 Idk
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I see. Did you end up saving them both?
@@meggiewillis9705 Yep
I would replace that Toto Drake handle on that Kohler Wellworth Ingenium Toilet with the original metal Kohler handle
I didn't have one at the time.
The beige toilet on the right flushes awesome
I prefer the newer one to be honest
I still like the old Kohler waterguard IMO. I still prefer that toilet over 3 of my Wellworth Class 5s I have at home. But I like them both.
I lucked out and got a 2004 Wellworth Ingenium for free off Craigslist in San Diego recently. Excellent condition with original functioning tank parts. I installed it in my girlfriend’s house. Just needed a new supply line, floor bolts, and wax ring. Great toilet with a nice strong flush
Awesome
Not very surprising but that Ingenium is very impressive!
I agree. Ingeniums are my favorite modern toilets.
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations same here
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations 5:33 I noticed your doggo

That waterguard is just awful but the Ingenium is awesome
I agree. You should use the entire picture of the cat as your pfp.
You are both right.
My Grandmother has a round Wellworth Ingenium on a tank with a pull handle. The Waterguard tank should be replaced with an older Wellworth tank. I am getting a 1971 Wellworth soon.
Oh neat!
I haven't even watched the video yet and I can already tell, the wellworth ingenium is gonna win.
Which wellworth?
@@Will-pl4tp the Ingenium
Yep. You are 100% correct.
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations oml that watergaurd is smash worthy (imo)
@@ctvplumbing I would agree except that it's too cool looking.
Best 1.6 gpf toilet: Kohler Ingenium
Yeah!
Ingenium was the obvious winner even before the tests, it was Kohler’s best toilet, yet it’s very sad that they got discontinued because Kohler went straight back to not great after the Ingeniums
Yeah, I agree.
The fact that the ingenium performs better despite using less than half the amount of water just shows how good the ingenium flush is and I think they should have kept it instead of replacing it with the class 5
Definitely
In my opinion they should have made the class 5 have the ingenium flush
@@NyxKemoThat would be really cool but I imagine it would also use a ton of water
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations 1.6 gallons isn’t a ton of water, imo it’s the minimum for an acceptable toilet, having that trapway with the ingenium bowl rince would make a pretty good 1.6g toilet
@@NyxKemoVery true
I like the ingenium version of the kohler wellworth. I have one in my collection it works great. I have to say the 1985-1996 wellworth water guard was a far superior design to the 1976-1984 wellworth water guard
I just found a Waterguard yesterday and the thing that surprises me about it, is that for something called a "waterguard", it still takes a full five gallon bucket to fill the tank, AFTER filling the bowl.
Yeah, nice marketing Kohler
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I think the trick now is to find a Plebe. That seems to be the only logical choice as its kind of ridiculous how this fails a bag reliably, mine does too. Almost any vintage toilet can take a bag... edit: Mine's an '84, elongated, so I think you may be onto something here with later model waterguards being worse than early model waterguards
@@Kudlaty771 I have some Plebes
I actually think the Ingenium is one of the best Wellworths out there
btw idk whats wrong with the tan wellworth becasue my round one litterly can take 2 grocery bags or 1 grocery bad and a washcloth so maybe its that darn slow flush
The elongated ones are much worse
ya for sure
Smh on the waterguard toilet...and yes middle finger on it.
The KOHLER flushes all!
I wish they made them better
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I would agree about that. Kohler needs to make consumer toilets as good as commercial toilets.
and why the toilets are not same design execpt for the trapway
They are from different times
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations but they had same tanks same base same rims and Diffenrent trapway
Water guard Wellworth is overrated I can’t believe I used to like them. Ingeniums are definitely worth your money.
Yep I agree
I completely agree
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I agree with you all.
The 1985-1996 wellworth water guard is not overrated. That version of the wellworth is awesome
The 1985-1996 water guards aren’t overrated I have four that perform great and all of the 1985-1996 ones I have encountered were great. But if you’re talking about the 1976-1984 wellworth water guards then yes I would have to agree they’re overrated
I think that the 1978 Kohler-Wellworth-WaterGuard is better than the 1981 Kohler-Wellworth-WaterGuard.
Definitely
i like kohler wellworth ingenium this toilet is best wellworth toilet ever!
I really like them too
My toilet is clogged😅
Oof
I think its a hit or miss with the Waterguards, poor CC likely. My grandma has one in her main bath and Ive never plugged it, even loading it down with a lot of TP, it doesnt struggle, yet I see some on here like yours that arent good. My house has Ingeniums in both bathrooms and theyre okay but definitely plug up a lot easier than my grams WG.
Very surprising
The waterguard wellworth from 1981 good video
Thanks!
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations don't get me wrong the new wellworth is good too but the bowl wash on the new closets really isn't very good as the flush cycles are so quick with the new 3 inch flap I remember back around 1978 or 79 that front trap water closets were banned because the water in the bowl wasn't enough according to the plumbing code then but yet today the bowl wash on today's closets isn't any better
@@stevemino142 That's a weird reason to ban them
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations yes it is doesn't make any sense at all
Is that the same ingenium you did with the class five?
This is the standard height version of that
I remembered that that's a well worth and the other was a highline
I would take a 3.5 Gal+ Kingston Waterguard flushometer toilet any day over that rubbish performing Tank Top (CC) Waterguard (which failed most tests) obviously a poorly designed model - the Ingenium is a real decent toilet which passed all the tests (albeit a slight hesitation on one or two)! So yes a modern toilet wins over an vintage model in this instance!
Agreed!
hmmmm that waterguard might be defective
It seems like they started sucking after 1979.
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I have a wellworth water guard from 1990 that performs great
@@becplumbing660 Mine from that generation are great too
I don't hate these ingenium toilets, but it is better than the waterguard toilet. The toilet on the right is horrible so it does not perform well. I have notice that there is a lot of hate towards these ingenium toilets. I believe the toilet on the left that I love is amazing. Boy, do I like to make one.
I completely agree. Someone has an Ingenium that's an absolute failure of a toilet but I think it has limescale. The rest of them are outstanding.
In my old town, there was a round ingenium at my pizza place.
Nice. There is one at a gas station near me
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I like these. They’re nostalgic for me
That waterguard looks exactly like the one u compared against the compton
I don't believe I compared those
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations no i mean it looks like the cadet
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations except on flapper use
@@Vidalbuh2431 Oh
The Waterguard has a small trapway... A 60s or 70s Wellworth is far better. Worst vintage toilet? Maybe a Kohler Trylon or a Case forward trap toilet. The older Wellworths (40s-50s) with no siphon jet are also extremely weak. The models are great, but they are really bad performers.
OCC plumbing are they worse than vintage lowboys?
No
I love low one pieces 😱😂🥂
I am also a toilet tester
performance rating an A for a ingenium
performance rating is an C- for a waterguard
These Waterguards were definitely a low point in Kohler's designs.
Ingenium is my favorite toilet. And the WG is garbage as ( __ ).
Does the 1981 waterguard have any minerals inside the trapway? That can be because of that.
It's fully clean
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations ok
What is the year of the wellworth
1981 and 2005
My is 1986
Nice dog by the way
Thanks!
I really like the toilets that are not the best but get the job done.
5:33 What's the dog's name?
Annie
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations I really love dogs.
Those wellworth WGs are garbage. I had one and it was really bad always clogging up. Just goes to show not all vintage toilets are good there’s always going to be good and bad toilets from each era but many old toilets are pretty good
i love ingeniums
Same
Come to the office tomorrow
Good slap ❤❤❤
Thanks!
COOL
Ikr
I was pretty funny when you threw the washcloth on the water guard
Lol
The ingenium also struggled in grocery bag with a rag and a dish towel the Waterguard did the same but worse
Waterguard (F)
Ingenium (E+)
Note even my toilet can be better than the wellworth Waterguard
There was no stopping the Ingenium. It stopped for only about half a second which is pretty good. The Waterguard completely failed.
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations my ratings would be
waterwaster: E-
ingenium: A+

The 1997-2009 Wellworth is better.
I agree
Ingenium definitely won
For sure
Yea the one on the left is better, I am going to make one soon, if possible please send me photos of them on Hangouts, if you have the oval modern Wellworth like the one on the left, of possible I like to see photos of that too.
And the rim holes etc etc.
This is Yaiden Young by the way.
Unfortunately I don't have an elongated one because it was badly damaged and I got rid of it.
@@OCC_Plumbing_and_Restorations No worries mate that's fair enough
I think the Waterguard *might* need a punishment day…
He wouldn't do that. Right Owen?
I still don’t like the WGs
Good God I hate the WG!
So which Kohler Wellworth is the waterguard and Ingenium Owen? I hope we always have time to talk to each other. I miss you more than you miss me. I did promise I will watch your videos. The waterguard sucks big time. But I love the ingeuim more.
The Waterguard is the brown one.

Called the Ingenium owning this bout against the Waterguard, simply because the former had the bigger trapway.
Needless to say, I am quite pleased that the Ingenium swept all four rounds. 😉
