When you decide to replace your
old toilet with a new model, you will need to know the measurement from the
wall out to the hold-down bolts or the center of the closet bend.
New toilets now use no more than
1.6 gallons of water per flush. There are two types: gravity-flush or
pressure-assisted. Gravity-flushers are similar to the old models, but they are
designed to produce a more forceful water flow. They are less expensive than
pressure-assisted models, but may require more than one flush to clear the
ka-ka.
The pressure-assisted toilet uses
compressed air for a more powerful water flow. They seldom require more than
one flush to clear up old business. The disadvantages are that they can cost
twice as much as the gravity models, they are noisier, and cost more to repair.
So, there you have it. That’s the
all the poop on toilets.
