Tips for choosing the perfect toilet for your Bathroom

Buying a new toilet can be overwhelming. Past every toilet's sticker price and look, how can you make certain you're buying the best one for your family?

A decent toilet will be with you for a considerable length of time, so we at Mansfield Plumbing need to help you pick the perfect one by breaking down common toilet terms.

GPF

These three letters speak to one of the toilet's most critical highlights. "GPF" remains for gallons per flush and reveals to you how much water your toilet will use. The lower the "GPF," the more water and cash you'll save.

HET

HET stands for "high-effectiveness toilet," a title held by any toilet that uses 1.28 gallons per flush or less. Not exclusively do HETs help you save water and lower your month to month charge, but some nearby water authorities offer discounts for purchasing this type of toilet. Make sure to watch that your HET conveys the EPA's WaterSense mark (an independent certification for water-effective items). At Mansfield, we list the greater part of our HETs together at Mansfield High Productivity Toilets.

Guide Rating

While purchasing a water-saving toilet is an option, you'll additionally need to ensure it has a powerful flush, so you never need to flush twice. Take a gander at the toilet's Guide Rating to identify how many grams of strong waste your toilet can flush. This rating depends on independent lab testing. The minimum performance standard is 250, and the most extreme is 1,000.

Dual-Flush Toilet

Dual-flush toilets accompany two flush options: a button split into two that uses a higher gpf for strong waste, and a lower gpf for different flushes; the second option is a lever that is lifted up for fluid waste and pushed down for strong waste. For instance, at Mansfield, one of our dual-flush toilets – the Enso – uses a button that flushes 1.1 gpf or 1.6 gpf given your flushing needs.

Rough In

Before buying a new toilet, you'll need to check the "rough in" for your present one.

The "rough in" speaks to the separation between the wall and floor drain of the toilet. The standard unpleasant in is 12". If you have a more seasoned home, your toilet may have a 10" or 14" harsh in.

ADA Consistent

If a toilet is ADA Consistent, it meets the benchmarks for toilet seat height for the American With Disabilities Act. The ADA standard is 17"- 19" from floor to the highest point of the toilet seat.

Prolonged vs Round Front

These two terms depict the shape of the toilet bowl. A lengthened plan is ordinarily the most comfortable but may require a bit more space in your bathroom. If you're buying a toilet for a smaller bathroom, consider a toilet with a round front.

Two-piece toilet

A great many people have a two-piece toilet in their home with a different tank and a base (two pieces). Another option is the one-piece toilet that capacities the same but is less demanding to clean and by and large conveys a higher sticker price.
