It’s rare, who wonders how much water goes into the sewer every time the toilet cistern is drained. And few people know that the structural features of the toilet play a role in this.
Statistics
According to statistics, one person spends 34 liters of water per day to flush. At the same time, about 4 liters are spent for washing off solid waste, and about 1 liter for liquid wastes. Domestic tanks flush about 10 liters of water at a time. Imported toilets have two flushing functions, “economical” and “ordinary”. They consume on average 3 to 6 liters of water when the drain button is pressed.
Thicket configuration also affects the final amount of water consumed. So, in domestic toilets with a dish-shaped bowl of water, more is required to wash off waste than in toilets with funnel-shaped bowls. The volume of expenses is also affected by the shutoff valves of the tank, which sets a certain limit level of water in the tank.
The toilet does not flush well
If the new toilet does not flush well, then most likely the matter is in its unsuccessful design. For example, a toilet bowl with a shelf is a poor design for optimal operation of the drain system. The bowl for good waste disposal should be inclined.
The flush quality is affected by the number and location of the drain holes. If there is one central opening from the tank, then the removal of waste products will be of poor quality with a large flow of water. The optimal system is a funnel-shaped flush with the arrangement of several holes in a circle.
Flushing problems sometimes directly depend on breakdowns in the toilet bowl, which draws too little water. This may be due to the fact that the float closes the valve too early. To correct the situation, it is necessary to tighten the adjustment screw on the float.
It is also possible that debris has fallen into the gap between the drain hole and the lobe, causing the tank to leak. It is necessary to remove all unnecessary for the density of the connection in the structure.
The fact may be that the drain parts of the tank, made of rubber, have undergone destruction due to hard water, salts or chemicals. Elements will have to be replaced with new ones.
