TOTO Toilets
The goal is to achieve absolute purity or intoto. This approach is used in alchemy and astrology.
Kaisen is the Japanese concept of perfection. It is a part of how people in Japan live and work.
TOTO has integrated the philosophy of Kaisen into its products, including NEOREST WX. This toilet is a perfect example of an excellent product that promotes a New Normal Way of Life.
Water Sense Technology
TOTOUSA is committed to reducing its environmental impact. Their philosophy -- People-First Innovation -- is not only reflected in how the company designs and develops its products and services, but also in the way that it treats its employees and its partners with customers. They recognize that the world cannot survive without clean water, and it is vital to conserve it. TOTO's EcoPower toilets for commercial use and EcoPower flush valves were among the first products in the market that earned the EPA's coveted WaterSense Label. The label assures you that TOTO's high-efficiency toilets use 1.0 Gallons or less per flush, thereby saving money on water and energy bills.
TOTO's commitment to sustainable living goes beyond water conservation. It also includes reducing energy use and the waste that is generated in manufacturing. The company has optimized its manufacturing process to reduce waste and is committed in recycling water at its production facilities. They also encourage employees to adopt a sustainable approach at work and offer them several opportunities to learn how they can be a part of the solution.
Because of TOTO's leadership in the design and promotion of water-efficient toilets the country has seen a drastic reduction in the amount of water used by toilets. The innovative toilets it has developed have helped to reduce sewage overflows and the environmental damage that comes from them, and also lower cost of utilities for homeowners who choose to switch to the 1.6 Gallons per Flush (GPF) TOTO toilet.
In addition to producing a variety of 1.6 GPF toilets, TOTO also offers many low-flow models which operate on 1.0 gallons per flush. These ultra-high-efficiency toilets (UHETs) that require less water and use less resources are designed to look good and function like standard toilets.
The Promenade II 1G and Drake II 1G toilets, for instance, feature TOTO's patent-pending Tornado flushing system, which delivers unparalleled performance using just one gallon of water. These products, when used with EcoPower flush valve, which delivers 1.28 GPF, are ideal for any project that wants to conserve water.
Toilets with elongated Bowls
Longer toilet bowls are one of the most sought-after toilet styles in modern times. They provide more comfort and space than a round one which makes them suitable for families or larger households with many users. There are other aspects to take into consideration when deciding if an extended or a round front toilet would be the best option for your particular project, including the cost, installation, and maintenance.
The first thing to consider is that elongated bowls are typically approximately 2" longer than the round front bowl in length, from the seat bolt holes to the top of the bowl. The easiest method to determine if you have an elongated or round front bowl is by measuring your current toilet. A round front bowl measures around 16.5" from the bolt holes for the seat to the top of the bowl.
Pros: Elongated bowls are more comfortable for men and children due to their greater surface area. They are also required to ensure ADA compliance. The additional length also makes them easier to clean, as the cleaning brush is more easily fit inside. Cons: Elongated toilets are more expensive and require more frequent repairs due to the extra material. In some instances the additional height of a toilet that is elongated can make it harder to fit in bathrooms that are small.
The TOTO Drake Tornado Flush elongated toilet bowl is an ideal choice for construction projects that are new or renovations. The bowl is constructed with TOTO's revolutionary, hole-free rim and is compatible with TOTO Washlet+. the advantage comes with CeFiONtect, a layer of exceptionally smooth glaze engineered to stop debris, mold and bacteria from sticking to the bowl's surface, and reduce the frequency of cleaning. This Drake extended bowl is also EPA WaterSense, CA's CEC, and CALGreen-compliant. Additional items required to be installed and used (such as compatible tank(s) wax rings, mounting bolts, TOTO electronic bidet seats or Washlet+ bilet seat) are available separately.
Dual Flushing
Dual flush toilets from TOTO are a trending new design that boosts water efficiency by separating different types of waste and adapting your home's water usage according to the type of waste. This allows your toilet to save between 0.6 and 1.6 grams of water per flush. These savings can quickly add up, as the toilet accounts for approximately one-third (or more) of the household's water consumption.
In addition to their ability to conserve water, these toilets can also help to help protect the environment. Because they do not require as much water to dispose of liquid waste, these toilets can help reduce the need for clog removal and other cleaning services which contribute to waste buildup in pipes.
The majority of TOTO's toilets utilize a system called Power Gravity to provide the most efficient flushing performance possible in low-profile models. The design employs a set of powerful jets to force waste into the trap, and then down the drain. The jets also produce an cyclonic, centrifugal rinsing action that prevents the buildup of debris inside the bowl.
The TOTO DYNAMAX TORNADO FLUSH system is another one of the brand's most popular. This system delivers a powerful and consistent flush using the combination of a large three-inch flush valve, as well as an enormous 2-1/8-inch fully glazed trapway. It only uses 0.9 grams per flush for the light flush and 1.28 gpf for the full flush, which reduces overall water consumption by up to the 68 percent mark.
One of the most common issues with toilets is frequent blockages, which can lead to an unpleasant and unsanitary bathroom for the building's occupants. This can lead to increased water bills each month and damage the appearance of a bathroom. There are many reasons for clogs, most of them can be avoided by ensuring that you select the correct flush setting and disposing of waste correctly in the toilet.
A clogged tank is an indication that your toilet needs to be cleaned out. This is something you can tackle yourself without needing an expert plumber. First, you must check the chain to ensure that it's not too long and isn't caught on anything inside the tank. If the chain is too long, it may get caught on things such as rubber bands or hair and cause your toilet to run. It's also a good idea, when looking at the fill valve to make sure that the zip tie that secures it isn't too tight. This could result in excessive running.
Two-Piece or One-Piece Designs
TOTO's one-piece toilet designs have a more sleek design than two-piece designs, and the gap between tank and bowl is reduced, a space that could draw dirt and grime. It's also easier to clean a one-piece toilet. TOTO's Neorest and Ultramax one-piece toilet models have advanced flush technologies, and luxurious bidets, if you want.
One-piece toilets are also the best choice when it comes to installing a TOTO Washlet+ bi-suite. The bidet is integrated with high-efficiency toilets to create a cleaner, healthier bathroom. The seamless connection eliminates protruding connections that attract dirt and debris and helps the WASHLET+ remain clean for a longer time. This is the core of TOTO's Total Design principle, which is applicable to all ages and abilities in the bathroom.
