In April 2023 most toilets are designed to use less water, so they have a dual flush toilet cistern, which allows the user to choose between a full flush and a half flush.
Using the appropriate flush will help save water.
As we move into Winter, traditionally our dry season, rainfall is less and, water saving is still a thing.
With that in mind, we should use the half flush for liquid waste and the full flush for solid waste.
The full flush is typically used more often than the half flush, as it is designed to clear all waste from the toilet bowl.
Remember not to use the toilet as a rubbish bin. Flushing non-biodegradable items can cause blocked pipes and drains, and cause damage to the plumbing.
If your toilet flush isn’t working as it should it is wasting water and adding to your water bill.
A running toilet cistern sounds like a job for The Lone Drainer and Pronto.
