How Much Money Can a New Toilet Save Me?

The exact amount of savings is hard to nail down because it depends on the cost of water from your utility company. However, it is a well-known fact that older toilets use water less efficiently than their newer counterparts. The average toilet manufactured prior to 1994 can use as much as seven gallons of water every time the toilet is flushed. With the rising cost of water always on the horizon, wouldn’t you like to know you have a head start at saving money?

Toilets made in the last several years offer cost-saving features like low-flow and dual-flush. Some models use less than a gallon of water each flush. These low-flow models are available in all brands and price ranges. They are available in elongated styles, compact styles, and round styles.

What Can I Do to Prevent Clogged Toilets?

A clogged toilet is not a pleasant situation to deal with. Unfortunately, from time to time this is a situation you may have to deal with. Luckily, there are ways to prevent toilets from chronic clogs.

The number one way to prevent blockages from forming in toilet bowls, traps, or farther in the drainpipe is to be very careful about what you flush. Residential toilets are not powerful enough to handle large amounts of toilet paper, and they certainly cannot handle non-biodegradable products. Using small amounts of toilet paper and being mindful about not flushing feminine hygiene products, baby wipes, diapers, and other objects will keep your toilets working in top condition.

What Happens If a Clog Forms?

If a clog develops, you can try using a plunger to relieve the congestion. Plungers work best for blockages inside the bowl or in the trap because the suction created by the plunger is powerful enough to reach the blockage. When a clog works its way farther into the drainpipe, plunging is not as effective.

If you plunging is not working, call your local North Hills plumber for drain cleaning. Our plumbers utilize hydro-jetting to get rid of clogs and clean your drains.
