Choosing a Toilet is a very important decision when you are renovating or building a rand new home. There are something’s you need to consider – least of which is whether to purchase a one or two piece toilet and what size and style to get. Here are some things to think about:

• Round Front or Elongated - Round front toilets are compact to fit in small spaces. Elongated toilets have extra room in the front for added comfort.

.

• One-piece, or two? - A one-piece toilet is actually six to ten individual pieces sculpted into a seamless unit. One piece toilets include tank, lid, bowl, toilet seat, wax ring with sleeve, two flange bolts and two bolt caps. The result is a sleek, hand-crafted toilet with no crevices between the tank and bowl to collect dirt and odors. Toilets can be purchased in one-piece or separate piece assembly: tank, seat and bowl. A one-piece toilet is one complete unit allowing for easy cleaning.
• Gravity-fed or pressure-assisted flush? - 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.
• 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 also make 10" and 14" models.
• Cost - Toilets range in cost from $75-$1,000 depending on the type and material used.
• Colors - Standard colors available are beige, white and black. Other colors are available through special order. Toilets are available in vitreous china or glazed china.
