Step 1 Flushing System
Single-Flush Toilets
Standard single-flush toilets use the force of gravity to create a strong
siphon during flushing.
Dual Flush Toilets
Dual-flush toilets have separate flushes for solid and liquid waste.
Pressure-Assisted Toilets
Pressure-assisted toilets have a special flushing mechanism within the tank
that creates a siphon jet action.
Step 2 Rough-in Size
The most important measurement is the distance between the wall and the centre
of the floor drain, called the rough-in. The standard rough-in dimensions for
toilets is 12-inches.
Step 3 Bowl Shape
Elongated vs. Round
Elongated toilets have a bowl that extends out further with extra room in
front for added comfort. Round toilets have a bowl with a more compact
design, perfect for fitting in smaller bathrooms and powder rooms.
Step 4 Bowl Height
Standard Height
Bowl height is approximately 15” from the floor to the top of bowl rim.
Chair* Height
Bowl height is approximately 16 1 /2” from the floor to the top of bowl rim.

Step 5 Toilet Configuration
One-Piece Toilets**
Bowl and tank together to save space in small bathrooms. Easy to clean with no
tight crevices.
Two-Piece Toilets

Step 6 Toilet Profile
Toilets are a part of a bathroom’s overall design, consider the profile along
with other features.
Exposed Trap way
Visible trap way is the most common style found in homes and shows the outline
of the curving trap way on the toilet base.
Concealed Trap way
Non-visible trap way on the toilet base. A smooth surface at the base that
provide a more modern look and can be easier to clean.
Other Considerations
Water Saving Toilets
Toilets that use less water are better for the environment. Toilets that
utilize less than 6L of water qualify as a high efficient toilet. Most toilets
now utilizes 4.8L.
Toilet Performance
Toilet performance is graded with a Map score, which represents the number of
grams of waste that are eliminated from the bowl in a single flush. A toilet
with a score of 1,000g is considered to have great flushing performance.
Toilet Seats
Toilet seats are made to fit both toilet bowl shapes: Elongated and Round
Toilet Seat. Toilet seats with other features (e.g. slow close) can be
purchased separately.
Lined & Unlined Toilet Tanks
A lined toilet tank reduces the amount of condensation. Tank liners are
available on select toilets. Liners cannot be installed after market, the
warranty will be void.
