3 to 4 gallons.
They want to reduce this to about 1.3 gal.
Depends on if it needed to be flushed or not.
The toilet overflows when flushed because there is a blockage in the drain pipe, excessive water pressure, or a malfunctioning float mechanism in the tank that allows too much water to enter.
1.6 - 3.5 gpf
Sadly, yes they can! The toilet is much bigger then them and they can fall in their poopy water and drown. If they get flushed down who knows where they go! maybe out the plane!
A toilet overflows when there is a blockage in the pipes or when too much water is flushed at once. To prevent this, avoid flushing large amounts of toilet paper or foreign objects. Regular maintenance, such as using a plunger or drain cleaner, can help prevent blockages.

An old style (pre 1990) toilet uses 13.5 litres. The newer 'low flush' toilets use 6 litres or less.
In Canada, a typical toilet flush can use between 6 to 13 liters of water, depending on the model and age of the toilet. Older, less efficient toilets may use even more. While not all of this water is considered "wasted," the amount that is unnecessarily used could be reduced significantly with low-flow models and conservation efforts. Overall, the collective water usage from toilet flushing contributes notably to household water consumption.
Generally, modern toilets are required to be low flow, which is 1.6 gallons (6L) per flush. Older toilets were 3 gpf (11L). Modern toilets vary in the amount of water required to flush them, from 6L to 3L. Some have a dual flush system allowing solids (faeces) to be flushed with a full volume flush, say of 6 or 4.5L, and liquids (urine) to be flushed with a smaller volume flush of about 3L. It is not possible to flush properly a toilet with less water than that with which it was designed to be flushed. Low volume flush toilets have been designed to work efficiently with a smaller volume of water.
25 PPM then flushed out properly
No. the average toilet used is mechanical and uses gravity to flush. e parts need to be in p-top shape hen the Toilet Gets Flushed e easiest way to see how the whole system orks together is to flush the toilet with the lid f. That still leaves the question of how it al nctions. It is actually pretty simple. the flush lever to rise up pulling the chain with it which makes water rush down into the bowl evel lowers enough that it drops back down over the flush valve the refill valve and allows new water into the tank. Th water is coming in much more slowly than the water going out so it doesn't interfere with the flapper
