Im tired of my toilet getting clogged. does any one know how to convert a 1. gpf to a 3.5gpf toilet.
I really dont want to order one from Canada.
I have a well and unlimited free water I just want a great flush.
How I pine for the days of my youth when I, too, could plug up a toilet! :lol:
Save yourself a lot of hassle and just buy a TOTO low-flow… It is one of the best toilets anywhere and it will flush your infant children if not careful…
There are good low-flow toilets… Yoy just have a crappy one (pun intended)

Please tell me there’s a youtube video of this somewhere.
And Rmpl, are you going to EVTC this weekend?
Tried less fiber? 
Do this. It is a wonderful john.
I like the ones that sound like you’re launching a torpedo for a submarine each time you flush.
American Standard Champion 4.
Well… AREN’T you? :sarcastic:
Actually, high fiber diets make your products more flushable because the stools are looser. High protein diets are what generate unbreakable toilet clogging mega turds.
+1 on this. Whole grain bread, lots of vegetables, and whole oats (old fashioned oats) help keep you regular.
I eat a very high fiber diet most of the time. My boy less so (some days he does, other days not). He is about the only person to plug our toilets up though he is only 9 and does smaller turds.
24 golf balls, 56 chicken nuggets, 11 water wigglers, 5 hot dogs. Thing is a beast apparently.
I also like the air pressure toilets that a lot of hotels are switching to. It makes you feel like a man when the toilet is harnessing the power of a jet engine in order to keep up with your bowel excretions.
If you really want to get fancy, get a Japanese western-style toilet. Damn things just about thank you for giving them the honor of receiving your waste.

Not gonna lie though, the first time you hit the wrong button on accident you feel violated.
That’ll teach you to ignore the courtesy flushes. :nono:
Probably a lot easier to just flush multiple times. Or drop off the kids at any store’s swimming pool.
When you have guests over you cant ask them to courtesy flush.
+1 on the Toto. I converted my water wasting 20 year-old toilets to Toto 1.6s last year and couldnt be happier. I went with the 1.6 as I read too many complaints about 1.2s not fully flushing. No one has yet to flush twich with my Toto 1.6s.
I bought online from National Builders - when I bought they had the best price including free shipping: http://www.nationalbuildersupply.com
I can’t believe ya’ll took the time to learn so much about various crappers! I know we all like are quiet time on the throne but seriously?
And my coffee is now all over everything
CAN it be as simple as hooking up an old 3.5 gal. tank and plumbing, to a MODERN mfg’d bowl? Tanks are probably easier to locate than thrones.
Which reminds me of the old joke:
How do you know if a (insert racial epithet for third-worlder of your choice here) came to your party?
-
The refrigerator’s empty
-
The toilet’s backed up
-
Your dog’s pregnant
And getting back to the toilet, I’m a Toto fan as well. I installed one when I remodeled our upstairs bath and it has performed flawlessly, through thick and thin, as it were. The pressure assist valve assemblies are also the bee’s knees if you can install one on your crapper. It also doesn’t hurt to check your drain lines, as the best toilet in the world ain’t gonna do the job if it’s trying to discharge against a slow/constricted drain.
Not to be indelicate, but our house is almost seventy years old and when I busted out the old cast iron drain stack it was UGLY. No wonder things were draining a tad slow.
Furgeson!
