			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Question</strong>: We have a toilet which is about four years old. I am in a critical situation and unable to find the cause of the problems. The waste water does not escape the toilet quickly giving rise to ugly situations. The examination by a well trained plumber has also not resulted in a worthy solution. Please let me know the best possible remedy for this problem.</p>
<p><strong>Answer:</strong> Your problem dates back to the year 1994, after the introduction of toilets with capacity to flush 1.6 gallons of water per flush. These were introduced especially for the common house hold. These were called Ultra Low Flush toilets, introduced with the intention of saving water. These typical water saving toilets were introduced on January 1, 1994.</p>
<p>Many problems have been faced by the house owners due to this new feature.<br />
Earlier theses toilets had a different physical structure. These could flush 3.5 to 5 gallons of water at a stretch. The surface area or width of the toilet bowl was also large enough. This enabled in the proper and complete draining of the waste water in to the drain lines. The toilets looked clean and there were minimum problems of the kinds you are facing now.<span id="more-3"></span></p>
<p>With the laws’ implementation, competition rose in the market and the manufacturers produced the 1.6 gallons standard, the design was good but its engineering did not reach the required standards. Even before the engineers could make it efficient bring about overall changes, these hit the markets and reached the houses of many house owners like you who are badly suffering.</p>
<p>If you have heard of the new ULF toilets with pressure assist mechanism, your problem is half solved. These water saving toilets have a facility to compress the water using the pressure in the pipelines. Thus when the toilet is flushed, the pressure increases and the water is compressed using a bladder mechanism. This forces the water into the bowl and reduces the need to flush more than once.</p>
<p>The gravity dependent toilets have a great drawback, the main reason for their inefficiency. These do not have a mechanism that takes the wastes into the drain directly and rapidly. While their ULF counterparts are very smart in this issue, they flush the water very rapidly into the drains, taking away all the solid matter and dirt into the bowl. Thus there is no chance of clogging of the sewer pipe.  The problem has a readily available solution. You need to just rush into your nearest dealer and get your new ULF toilet set right, now!!!</p>
