Pressure-Assisted Dual Flush: Uses compressed air for a more powerful flush—ideal for high-traffic bathrooms.
Eco-Optimized Mode: Some models allow you to customize flush volume even further, adjusting water levels to fit your household’s needs.
Touchless Dual Flush: Advanced systems use motion sensors, offering hands-free flushing while maintaining the dual-option system.
Retrofit Kits: For older toilets, dual-flush conversion kits can provide similar water-saving benefits without replacing the entire fixture.
FAQ
1. Does a dual-flush toilet really save water?
Yes. Many households reduce water use by up to 67%, as liquid-waste flushes use significantly less water than traditional single-button systems.
2. Why are the two buttons different sizes?
The small button triggers the low-volume flush, while the larger button releases a more powerful flush. The size difference helps users quickly choose the correct option.
3. Are dual-flush toilets harder to maintain?
Not usually. They require similar maintenance to regular toilets—just ensure the valves and seals are checked periodically.
4. Can I retrofit my existing toilet with a dual-flush?
Many models support retrofit kits, making it possible to upgrade without buying a new toilet.
5. What if the small flush doesn’t clear the bowl?
Occasionally you may need to press the large button. If it happens frequently, the toilet may benefit from cleaning the jet holes or adjusting water pressure.
