Existing Conditions
The toilets <and urinals> are mostly all original, and consist of tank urinals <flush urinals>, tank toilets, flush valve toilets. These fixtures are old and consume excessive amounts of water.
Retrofit Conditions
Modern low-consumption fixtures are designed as direct replacements for older fixtures. They use significantly less water without compromising performance. When they first came onto the market, low volume toilets developed a reputation for poor flush performance. In response, the industry has developed a rating process and the problems have been overcome.
We recommend:
• Replacing all existing toilets with new low volume (6 litres/flush) or dual-flush toilets. <Savings and cost estimates in this analysis are based on low volume toilets.>
• Replacing all existing flush valve urinals with low volume or waterless urinals. <Savings and cost estimates in this analysis are based on low flow urinals.>
