A lot of this depends on how your composting toilet works. Most composting toilets I've seen (which aren't many) are designed to have liquids go down them. I know the solid waste has water within...

I'm thinking that you might have part of the wax ring blocking the trapway at the flange. I usually take a decent wad of toilet paper and place it in the bowl near the drain, then dump a couple of 5...

Nah, you want an African Lungfish in there... very scary fish:

I have the Aquia... so far, no complaints whatsoever. Excellent bowl wash compared to the vastly more expensive Toto Pacifica 1-piece toilets I have at my other residence. More bowl wash than the...

If you have a Lowe's hardware store nearby, you have access to all of the replacement parts you'll ever need. They carry both of the Toto flappers and fill valve in-stock. Both parts together cost...

ugh... none of that 80-grit for my tush!.

FWIW, the Korky Quietfill valves can be purchased at Lowe's. Highly recommend. They seem to be able to take quite a bit of grit & junk in the water before fouling. They are also very easy to take...

Where's the option for "none of the above"? I have Toto toilets at all of my homes... and no problems because of it. I proudly use the 2-ply Cottenelle Ultra without problems, and I do tend to use...

1 gallon isn't much water when you think about it -- the flush alone is 1.6. If you've got a 5 gallon bucket, try mostly filling it with water and dumping it down the toilet. It should be able to...

I'd call up whichever city department it is and request to use the Ultramax, if that's what you want to use. They might be willing to give it to you even if it's not on the list.

I've seen the Drake installed in quite a few various commercial apps. Office buildings, restaurants, hotels, churches.... If you go to Toto's website, they do have a separate listing of what they...

Also, run your finger around the "ring" where the flapper sits. I've seen these get fouled over the years and a good cleaning of them doesn't hurt.

I'd still suggest looking at Toto. Have you tried looking for local dealers on their website? There are some Toto dealers in Idaho...and there's always mail-order. I just bought two Toto Aquias for...

I'm a Floridian (born & raised), so I'm not familiar with this "freeze" and "snow" things you northerners speak of, but I propose a possible answer.

How long has the home been vacant? Just a...

Thank you Mike. I figured this was the only time I'd ever consider getting my head near a toilet, and I wasn't exactly the type to "ride the porcelain train" in college, so I had little experience...

The shut-off is on the wall wherever you put it, so it is as easily accessible or as hidden as you (and your plumber) desire. The "concealed" part is that the supply line ends up entering the tank...

Is it still necessary to sand the inside of the tanks? I'm about to have my Aquias installed next week by a plumber, mainly b/c the supply valves are DIRECTLY BEHIND the flange, great planning by...

Thanks for the reply Mike.

I figured this was the only time I'd ever want to get THIS close to the toilet. Once they're hooked up and in-use, toilets aren't exactly places where you want to...

My Aquias just arrived today (haven't been installed yet, probably going to be a week or so before the plumber arrives). I just noticed that the holes in the rim are different sizes. I'm assuming...

Closing the seat before flushing can help, but pressure assist toilets are noisy by the nature of their design.

If you still want an elongated bowl, the Aquia is ~27"... not a huge savings in space, but in small spaces, an inch matters!

Nothing negative to say about the ones I've owned (Drake/Pacifica) which I've had for almost 5 full years now. Bowl wash could be better on the Pacifica, but very impressed with the Drake. About to...

Any smearing differences (more/less) than the Ultramax? I know the Pacifica doesn't wash the bowl as well as the Drake does. Also, what is the installation on the Aquia like compared to the Unifit?...

Are there any other high-end brands other than Panasonic? The bathroom showrooms I've seen usually aren't as high-end as they think they are, exception being their prices, which are well-over what...

Okay, I'm finally at a point in my remodel where it's time to replace the toilets. I've always spec'd out Toto Drake toilets for just about every project I've ever done. I've yet to ever use a...
