DesignerHardware.com - Announces Its High Efficiency Toilets
Caroma has excelled in the creation of the High-Efficiency Toilet (HET). By employing a dual flush mechanism, the user is able to select a full flush (1.6gpf) or a half flush (0.8gpf). The half flush is capable of flushing all liquid waste and even small solid waste. The full flush is only required for large solid waste. Since the average use only requires a half flush to dispose of waste 80% of the time, the average water consumption of these toilets is less than 1 gallon per flush. - November 17, 2007 - DesignerHardware.com
