The dual-flush toilet gives the user a water conserving choice. Unlike the typical single flush lever, this dual-button system can release .9 gallons or 1.6 gallons, as appropriate for the need. While this technology has been popular in Australia, East Asia and Western Europe for over a decade, it is relatively new to North America.
It is estimated that a typical family of 4 will save 7,000 gallons of water per year with this toilet, compared with a standard 1.6 gallon-per-flush toilet. Check with your local water company about any rebates available to purchase water conserving toilets.
