The plumbers of A-1 Plumbing of Baltimore are good guys. Since the government began requiring everyone to use low flush toilets, the number of clogged toilets and clogged drains has risen. But the plumbers at A-1 would rather get work helping their customers install a high quality low flush toilets, low flow toilet, then get repeated calls for clogged toilets and clogged drains.”

By law everyone is required to use a low flow toilet (a toilet that uses no more than 1.6 gallons of water per flush). What the law doesn’t regulate is the fact that low flush-volume toilets may not work well. Initially many manufacturers tried to make changes in their toilets to reduce the flush volume in toilets which were designed to use more water. And voila, many of these toilets didn’t work well. The result? Consumers were stuck with repeated clogged toilets, clogged drains, and frequent need of the toilet plunger. And result two? Americans got the impression that 1.6 gallon flush toilets were no good, and insufficient for the task.

Subsequently, two developments came down the pike, which is beginning to convince consumers that there are low flush toilets which work. The first invention was the dual-flush toilet. This ingenious design, being used around the world, provides the right amount of liquid for different types of flush. The user pushes the low volume button to flush liquids, and the high volume button to flush solids. This design permits a great water savings, without the danger of an inadequate flush. Now combine this idea with another invention. Companies begin to design toilets that would flush well even on a low volumes of water..

One of the companies that pioneered the new efficiency design toilets, was Toto of Japan. Toto was inspired to come up with a low volume flush toilets by the success scientists had in creating low flow toilets for use in outer space. The sleek Toto Ultra-Max has a special vortex in the outlet hole of the toilet bow that niftily sucks down the contents of the bowl in the blink of an eye.

Looking for a demonstration of the ability of these low toilets to flush down large volumes of refuse in their bowl? You have got to see the Gerber Viper Flush Video. If you’re not convinced there are low flush toilets that works, then you have got to see the Gerber Viper flush Video on the Internet. Make a search on Google for Gerber Viper, and click on the “Gerber Viper in Action,” Video. Then sit back for the next two minutes, (without popcorn), and watch as the viper sucks down a series of test loads starting with an amazingly realistic simulated average test load, including the toilet paper, and progressing upwards through test loads comprised of large wads of toilet paper, beyond recommended amounts, a bowel of diced carrots, and closing with the grand finale, a three pound serving of salad vegetables dumped into the toilet. The toilet bowl is so full that you can’t even see the water level, but amazingly the swift action of the viper rids the bow of refusel in 1-3 seconds
