What Makes One Toilet Flush Better Than Another?
Toilets that have a three-inch flush valve get a lot of water from the toilet tank to the toilet bowl quickly. Since most toilets are now limited to 1.6 gallons per flush in order to conserve water, it is a must to get as much water, as quickly as possible, from the toilet tank to the toilet bowl for a good flush. A three-inch flush valve accomplishes this. A good trap system (the plumbing “path” the water follows upon exiting the toilet bowl) also aids in the flushing process and helps to prevent clogs.
