Whey you gotta go, you gotta go!

[Rubycon]

Wooosh!

Wow look at the drop on that potty!

 

[Modular]

You should start a new youtube phenomena called "Will it Flush?"

 

[Crono]

I think I would have to levitate to reach that.

 

[gimmewhitecastles]

that's some old school technology right there.

 

[mooncancook]

Seen them a lot in japan

 

[Imp]

Looks like 2 extra metres of head. Ain't nothing that thing can't flush!

 

[highland145]

6 gallons per helps too.

 

[muskie32]

My brother needs one of those! o.o

 

[joesmoke]

why do they always paint bathrooms that color?

 

[surfsatwerk]

I would come at that thing like a spider monkey. A big fat all you can eat spider monkey.

 

[Zedtom]

If you were planning on doing an upper decker in that washroom you better bring a ladder.

There's a chain to yank on to pull up the rubber flapper.

Thanks, that picture's going to stay with me a while.

 

[feralkid]

that's current technology right there.

Fixed for accuracy.

Exact same principle, just longer pipe.

Longer pipe is desirable no doubt!

 

[geno]

Longer pipe is desirable no doubt!

Would an upgrade in diameter be more worthwhile? :hmm:

Remember, it's all about velocity, not volume. Any designer of low-flow toilets will be able to tell you that.

 

[Squisher]

You can still buy high tank toilets like that. They sometimes have the tank surrounded with wood and all brass hardware. They're rather pricey. They were quite the rage 30 years ago in retro designs.

Know any?

 

[sdifox]

you guys may not believe this, but this toilet is considered superb for a large chunk of the human population.

Flush the fashion?

 

[zinfamous]

I still don't understand what is so odd about that toilet. I feel like I've encountered several with rather high tanks.

The tank is raised high off the bowl.

This increases pressure the same as pumping water from a reservoir or well into an elevated tank (or water tower) provides pressure for consumers.

Of course the best toilets have no tanks.

 

[zinfamous]

something about that wording is really confusing to me.

my assumption about the height, initially, is that this would be a heavy pressure flush? Is that what you're saying?

And would it be that much different than a toilet with a raised tank that wasn't quite so high?

 

[qliveur]

that's some old school technology right there.

And it needs to be re-adopted. These newer 1.6 GPF Al Gore toilets can't flush shit. Literally.
