Bathroom Plumbing: There is a Right Way

The needs of homeowners are constantly changing and evolving. Due to these changes, many homeowners are looking into installing commercial toilets inside their houses. While the idea of installing a commercial toilet appeals to many owners due to the tankless feature, these toilets are not intended for residential use.

Installing a commercial toilet in a residential area can lead to malfunction and even damage to your plumbing. Read on to learn why commercial toilets should never be installed in the place of residential toilets and what options you have. And remember! Just because they are louder and stronger, does not mean that commercial toilets don't get clogged toilet issues

Residential VS. Commercial Toilets

residential vs commercial toiletsWhile both residential and commercial toilets appear to be similar, there are key differences that are important to learn. Residential toilets are installed with the correct setup to connect to city sewer piping. They are created to handle a smaller volume of water and waste and function using a suction system to flush.

Residential toilets use tanks to force water and waste through piping. Pipes are often of a smaller diameter. Commercial toilets, on the other hand, are designed to handle more significant amounts of waste and water.

They connect to large industrial piping, and their tankless feature uses a large amount of force and water volume to flush waste through the piping. These are installed with larger diameter piping and use a pump to force water through the bowl for each flush.

Inspect Your Underground Plumbing System First

One of the reasons for differences in residential toilets and commercial toilets comes down to the plumbing systems used. Residential plumbing has smaller piping that connects to the city sewer system. Residential piping is built to handle a smaller volume of water and waste.

Commercial plumbing, on the other hand, is built to handle high volumes of water and waste. Plumbing for malls and other large building complexes are hooked into the sewage system with much larger piping. Commercial toilets use larger piping that is not available for residential homes. A commercial toilet cannot be installed in a home because the piping available for commercial toilets will not connect properly to piping used in houses.

Why Do Homeowners Opt for Tankless Toilets?

By using a specially designed pump and pipe attachments, the tankless toilet is capable of flushing waste through your residential piping using high volume water pressure. These toilets are completely safe for residential use and provide you with all the benefits of a commercial toilet.

Tankless toilets are easy to clean. Without the tank to worry about, you can easily get behind the toilet bowl when moping or scrubbing, improving overall cleanliness and sanitation. Tankless toilets give your bathroom a sleek modern look and are a wonderful space-saving feature.
