Choosing the Perfect Toilet




ROUND FRONT OR ELONGATED?


Measure
 Elongated toilets have extra room in the front for added comfort.

Round front toilets are compact to fit in small spaces.





ONE PIECE OR TWO?one or two pieces?

A one-piece toilet is actually six to ten individual pieces sculpted into a seamless unit. The result is a sleek, hand-crafted toilet with no crevices between the tank and bowl to collect dirt and odors. "Two-piece" toilets require a separate tank and bowl which are bolted together upon installation.

GRAVITY-FED OR PRESSURE-ASSISTED FLUSH?

pressure-assisted

There are two basic types of toilet flushing systems; both types save water by using 1.6 gallons of water per flush. Gravity-fed flush toilets use the force of gravity and a siphon "pull-through" action to empty the bowl. Pressure-assisted toilets harness pressure from the water supply in the home to create a powerful "push-through" flush. All waste is removed quickly in about four seconds. Pressure-assisted toilets are slightly louder and there is
no condensation or "sweating"
on the outer tank.

SIZE

Toilets come in varying sizes, so check the width, depth and height of your available space. Also, most toilets bolt to the floor 12" from the wall, but some manufacturers make 10" and 14" models. Measure first.
