Did you know that the buttons in your toilet are not only used to chase the waste? They also help to save a precious resource: water.
How do the double-hunting buttons work?
How do the double-hunting buttons work?
Modern double-hunting toilets are designed to meet different needs:
The smallest button: consumes 3 to 4.5 litres of water, ideal for the disposal of liquid waste.
The largest button: consumes about 6 to 9 litres of water, which is essential for the disposal of solid waste.
This design allows you to adjust your water consumption, especially for everyday waste.
Why is this innovation essential?
Significant water savings: a fireplace equipped with double-hunting toilets saves up to 20,000 litres of water per year compared to a conventional flush.
Reduced environmental impact: these economies preserve water resources, a key gesture in the context of climate change and water stress. The origin of the double flush concept
