About Dual Flush Toilets

Dual flush toilets are the latest design in the toilet market. In 1980 dual flush technology was designed, creating a convenient method of manually selecting the amount of water each flush used: a half flush for liquid waste and a full flush for solid waste, with just the push of a button. Designed in Australia because of frequent water droughts, this trend is quickly catching on around the world.

This fairly new technology is perfect if you are trying to be more environmentally friendly and financially efficient. These eco friendly toilets use less than 1 gallon of water to flush liquid waste and around 1.6 gallons to flush solid waste. This is a big savings over old toilet styles that used 5 gallons or more for each flush. With this dual flush toilet design, you could save up to 29,500 gallons of water a year over a standard 5 gallons-per-flush toilet. This design can save up to 68 percent more water than even a conventional low-flow toilet can save.

Simply press the designated button for your desired waste removal. Button designs vary from toilet to toilet, but most often the smaller button is used for the liquid-waste flush. We carry many of these water-saving toilets as corner toilets to save space, too.
