Toilets Between 1 and 1.6 GPF

Water is one of the earth’s scarce resources, and as populations grow, there will be increasing pressure placed on these resources. Water remains the most effective means of flushing waste down a modern toilet. Governments are putting pressure on manufacturers to reduce the amount of water used in the toilets that they produce, and they have responded with new and more efficient flushing technology, while still managing to reduce the volume of water required. We’ve reviewed some of these toilets below.
