the reason your toilet is so slow is because it is probably a old one or you have used it too much or the top of the toilet the thing that you can open, like a lid, there is probably a clot of something that got suck in there.The "power" in a tank type toilet unless pressure assisted is universalOne only has to take the height of the tank off the bowl and times it by .433 that will give you the pressure.What causes a decent flush is the VOLUME that is delivered or in the case of a flushometer the volume and pressure available
Depends on how bad it is leaking
It definitely means you don't have to pour a bucket of water down the latrine, and it smells much better.
Appx. 2 gallons of water is lost a day.
5 gallons
Toilet cistern can cost a lot since it is the most used water in the house. But there is some ways to reducing the amount of water your toilet is flushing. First fill a half gallon container with water, place the container in the tank of the toilet, lower it in to the water, replace the lid and then youÕre ready to flush.
Time to give up and call a plumber to clean your drain line.
Contrary to popular belief Crapper did not invent the the flushing toilet. He did, however, do much to increase the popularity of the toilet, and developed some important related inventions, such as the the ballcock.
You should not be clogging the toilet at all. It could happen for a few reasons! Maybe you are using to much toilet paper. If not then there is something going on in the toilets! Other reasons could be that you are not flushing the toilet often enough. When having a bowel movement, it helps keep the toilet from becoming too full if you flush it several times. Newer, water saving toilets may also need to be flushed more often as they do not have as much power to flush things away. There could also be a problem with the toilet or the sewer or septic system.
Don't you think you should at least say if the toilet is 3.5 GPF or 1.6 GPF=Figure no less then 2,100 gallons=Don't you think you should at least say if the toilet is 3.5 GPF or 1.6 GPF=Figure no less then 2,100 gallons=
1 gallon
Either the toilet is plugged or the sewer line under the toilet is plugged. At this point I would suggest calling in an expert (plumber) to determine the problem. You have not given enough information to say. Sounds like you do not have enough water pressure coming in to wash the waste away. Check out the holes under the lip of the toilet seat to see if they are blocked, causing you to get an inefficient flush. Our new toilet is much better at flushing with lesser amounts of water.
If the toilet works each time on one flush, they use roughly half the water of a standard toilet. You would then use half as much a month on the toilet. They do not always flush completely on the first flush and the toilet is only a part of the water bill.
Yes; a special flapper that controls how much water is let out of the tank on each flush. Sold at better hardware stores.
Depending on the toilet, between 1 and 5 gallons.
it smoked to much.. Its clogged
It takes 5-7 gallons of water per flush.
