As demand grows for water in the central municipalities around the world, councils and governments are looking for ways to use water more efficiently. By using water more efficiently the world can extend the life of existing water supplies and simultaneously reduce the cost of delivering fresh water globally.

One way that councils and governments are able to encourage consumers to use water more efficiently is by the encouragement of the use of low flow toilets. Low-flow toilets – otherwise known as low consumption toilets, use no more than 6 liters of water per flush cycle – this is very different to the 13 and 25 liters per flush that are used with a standard flush toilet. Around 28% of a household’s water is used by the toilet so a low flow toilet can reduce water consumption by up to 20%. Taking a family of four as an example, this can mean a saving of up to 80,000 liters.

Features Of Low Flow Toilets

A low flow toilet is usually the same size as standard toilets although occasionally the tank may be a smaller size. They have been redesigned over the use to provide the maximum water efficiency possible. They now work better than or equal to a standard toilet. They are relatively easy to install and no special tools or connections are required. They come in a range of colors and styles and are designed to fit in with all manner of bathroom suites.

Toilets with low flow features are available at all major plumbing centers and are now even available on the Internet. Online toilet wholesalers offer low flow toilets and depending on the price of your purchase may even provide free insurance and shipping.
