It is a common perception that buyers choose bathroom fittings
according to the beauty and outlook of the product as all toilets work
with the same functionality and quality. But with a wide array of
bathroom fittings to choose from, homeowners consider the functionality
aspect of the products. A good flushing system is a must feature of any
toilet product.
There are several types of low-consumption flushing systems, but only a
couple of them command the majority of the market. Two standard flushing
systems are available the pressure- assisted system and the
gravity-flush system:
Pressure-assisted flush system: Pressurized air forces
water into the bowl when flushed reducing the chance for clogs. This
system is noisy, expensive and may require costly maintenance.
Gravity-flush system: Uses the water weight to
generate flushing pressure. The pressure forces everything from the tank
into the bowl and through the S-shaped trap way. A siphoning action
completes the flush. This flushing system is quieter and requires less
maintenance than a pressure-assisted flushing system.
