Flush toilets have been around from the first time they were introduced by Sir John Harington in 1596. The design, efficiency and flushing systems have tremendously improved from then to the modern toilets we have today. So, let's dive into the video.

Number 1
Gravity Flush System

A gravity flush toilet system is the most common type of flushing system. All other flushing systems borrow heavily from it. It uses the natural force of gravity to flush a toilet. Water flows from the tank which is mounted on top of the bowl and move to the bowl via gravity creating a force inside the bowl that causes the toilet trap to siphon out the waste.

Number 2
Pressure-Assisted Flushing System

A pressure-assisted toilet flush system combines the gravity flushing system with compressed air. This system is used to create a powerful flush in toilets where gravity flush system on its own would not be sufficient like in rear-discharge and upflush toilets. A pressure-assisted toilet has secondary plastic tank inside the main tank called a pressure vessel. Incoming water from the water supply line mixes with the air in the pressure vessel therefore becoming pressurized.

Number 3
Dual Flush System

A dual flush system is a system whereby the toilet has 2 options for the amount of water to be used. One is for flushing using a little amount of water mostly liquids and another using more water to flush solids. Dual flush toilets use flush buttons normally installed at the top of the tank lid although some using trip levels.

Number 4
Single Flush System
In a single flush system, the toilet user can only use the same amount of water whether flushing liquids or solids. These toilet systems mostly use a trip lever handle mounted on the side or the front of the tank. The toilet handle is connected to a lift chain which is in turn connected to a flapper. When you push the toilet handle down, the chain lifts the flapper off the flush valve opening allowing water to flow down to the bowl for flushing to happen.

Number 5
Double-Cyclone Flush System

The double-cyclone flush system was designed by Toto which is used in most of their toilets. Water flowing from the tank enters the bowl through 2 nozzles located at the top of the bowl facing sideways. As a result, the water swirls in the bowl like cyclone which is very effective in cleaning, rinsing and flushing the toilet.

Number 6
Tornado Flush System

The tornado flush system is used by the new Toto toilets and is an improved version of the double-cyclone flush system. Instead of 2 nozzles, the tornado flush system lets the water in to the bowl through 3 jets positioned sideways around the top of the bowl. As the water enters the bowl, it violently swirls around the like a tornado which is very effective in cleaning the bowl. It also has more quiet flush.

why don't you show what they look like inside the tank? This video is useless to me if I can't see how each kind looks

[TheForever]

Easy cleanup, came as described fast. Great product

[littlebill]

You couldn't manage any pictures of several of the flush types? Why bother making this video?

[gopalnaidu]

Yes sir please try to describe the subject in detail with necessary videos of functioning.The subject is very important one wich is not go through the public and not many details.

[EricFortuneJr.]

In a nutshell, there’s just two basic systems, gravity and pressure. Tornadoes, cyclones and earthquakes are just glorified gravity systems for those with bad guts.

Useless video. They didn't show any visual examples of the different kinds of flushing. Plus they had several pictures of composting toilets that don't use any water because they don't flush.
