toilet replacement question

Aug 24, 2004 3 Replies

I've got to replace a toilet and I don't want to waste my time or money. I've heard that a lot of the newer low-water toilets are hopeless. In fact the one I'm replacing is one of those. It seems to flush about 1/3 gallon of water, which isn't nearly enough, causing you to have to wait around in the bathroom for 10 minutes repeatedly flushing the damn thing to get it to flush properly.



Is there a toilet available in Canada that can flush properly in one flush?

There is some excellent evidence that the Australian "wash-down" toilets provide excellent flush characteristics PLUS much reduced tendency to clog the household plumbing lines.

According to Peter H :

Heh,

Consider yourself lucky, the americans are smuggling Canadian toilets ;-)
