Modern people pay more and more attention to environmental protection issues, and they will pay attention to environmental protection when purchasing building materials. The water-saving toilet that appears on the market is a toilet that conforms to the concept of environmental protection, so what is the price of the water-saving toilet, and how to choose a water-saving toilet? Today, I will share with you nine related knowledge about water-saving toilets.
How to choose a water-saving toilet
weigh in
Generally speaking, the heavier the toilet, the better. The weight of an ordinary toilet is about 25 kg, while that of a good toilet is about 50 kg. The heavy toilet has high density, solid material and good quality. If you don’t have the ability to pick up the entire toilet to weigh it, you might as well lift the tank cover to weigh it, because the weight of the tank cover is often proportional to the weight of the toilet.
capacity
As far as the same flushing effect is concerned, of course, the less water consumption, the better. Sanitary ware sold on the market generally indicates the water consumption, but have you ever thought that this capacity may be faked? Some unscrupulous merchants will label the actual large water consumption of the product as a small consumption in order to deceive consumers. Let consumers fall into the literal trap. Therefore, consumers should learn to test the real water consumption of the toilet.
Bring an empty mineral water bottle, turn off the water inlet faucet of the toilet, open the water tank cover and manually add water to the water tank with the mineral water bottle after draining the water in the water tank, roughly calculate according to the capacity of the mineral water bottle, add how much water after the faucet The water inlet valve in the toilet is completely closed? Check whether the water consumption matches the water consumption marked on the toilet.
Measuring caliber
Large-diameter sewage pipes and glazed inner surfaces are not easy to hang dirty, and the sewage is quickly and powerfully discharged, which can effectively prevent blockage. If you don’t have a ruler, you can put your whole hand into the mouth of the toilet. The more comfortable your hand is in and out, the better.
flushing method
The toilet flushing method is divided into direct flushing type, rotary siphon type, whirlpool siphon type, and jet siphon type; The flush-down and siphon flush-down toilets have strong sewage discharge capabilities, but the sound is loud when flushing; the whirlpool type consumes a lot of water at one time, but has a good mute effect; the direct-flush siphon toilet has the advantages of both direct flush and siphon , can not only quickly wash the dirt, but also play a role in saving water.
test water tank
In general, the higher the tank height, the better the momentum. In addition, it is necessary to check whether the water tank of the toilet is leaking. You can drop blue ink into the toilet tank, stir well and see if there is blue water flowing out of the toilet outlet, if there is, it means that the toilet has a leak.
On-site test flushing
Many sanitary ware sales outlets have on-site trial devices, and it is the most direct to try the flushing effect directly. According to national regulations, 100 floating resin balls should be put into the toilet in the toilet test. A qualified toilet should have less than 15 balls remaining in one flush. The less the remaining, the better the flushing effect of the toilet. Well, some toilets even flush down towels.
