FAQs

 

Environmentally friendly flushing solutions are increasingly becoming a priority, both for consumers and manufacturers. These solutions are designed with water conservation in mind, utilizing dual-flush technology to provide options for both low and high-volume flushes.

Additionally, modern cisterns and flush valves often come with water-saving features, like adjustable flow rates and precise volume settings. This ensures that only the necessary amount of water is used for each flush. Kohler, for instance, integrates pneumatic technology in its Softpress flush valves that can function effectively even at low pressures, maximizing efficiency and reducing water waste. 

 

Conserving water with a cistern is not just an eco-conscious choice; it's also economically savvy. Here are some ways to go about it:

Dual-Flush System: Modern cisterns often come equipped with dual-flush options that allow you to choose between a low-volume flush and a high-volume flush. This significantly reduces the amount of water used per flush.

Adjustable Flow Rates: Some cisterns offer the feature of adjustable flow rates, letting you set the volume of water used for flushing.

Check for Leaks: Periodically inspect your cistern for leaks. Even a minor leak can result in a substantial waste of water over time.

Quality and Durability: Invest in a high-quality cistern made from durable materials. A longer-lasting cistern means fewer replacements, which equates to less wastage of materials and water.

By implementing one or more of these strategies, you can play a significant role in water conservation.

 

A cistern is essentially a water storage tank that works in conjunction with a toilet to manage the flushing mechanism. When you flush a toilet, a lever or button activates a chain connected to a rubber flapper at the bottom of the cistern tank. This flapper lifts, allowing the water stored in the cistern to flow rapidly into the toilet bowl, carrying away waste and cleaning the bowl in the process. Once the tank is empty, the flapper settles back into place, sealing the tank so it can refill for the next flush. Water flows back into the cistern from the main water supply line through a fill valve.

Modern cisterns often feature dual-flush systems, allowing for different water volumes to be used for waste, promoting water conservation.  

 

Various types of cisterns are available to suit different installation requirements. Here are some common types: 

Close-Coupled Cisterns: These are the most traditional types, where the cistern sits directly on top of the toilet pan. They are relatively easy to install and are commonly seen in residential setups.

Low-Level Cisterns: These cisterns are separate from the toilet but are connected by a short flush pipe.

High-Level Cisterns: These cisterns are mounted high on the wall and are connected to the toilet pan by a long flush pipe. A pull chain usually activates the flush.

Concealed Cisterns: Hidden behind the wall or inside a piece of furniture, concealed cisterns offer a sleek, minimalist look. They are ideal for modern bathrooms.

In-Wall Cisterns: These are a variation of concealed cisterns but are integrated into the wall structure itself, making them even more discreet.

Each type has its own pros and cons, and the choice largely depends on aesthetic preferences, space constraints, and functional requirements.
