FAQs
Why should I upgrade to a high-efficiency toilet (HET) instead of keeping my current model?
Modern high-efficiency toilets use as little as 1.0–1.28 gallons per flush compared with the old 3.5- to 5-gallon tanks still common in many Clinton homes. That translates into hundreds of gallons—and dollars—saved every year on your water bill. HETs also meet current EPA WaterSense standards, reduce strain on the municipal sewer system, and often perform better thanks to advanced bowl design and pressure-assisted or dual-flush technology.
How much water and money can I expect to save with a new toilet?
On average, a family of four switching from a 3.5-gallon toilet to a 1.28-gallon WaterSense model will save roughly 16,000 gallons of water per year. At Clinton’s current average residential water rate (about $7–$8 per 1,000 gallons when water and sewer charges are combined), that’s $110–$130 in annual savings—enough for the toilet to pay for itself in as little as two to three years.
Are rebates or incentives available in Clinton for installing WaterSense-certified toilets?
Yes. Clinton Municipal Utilities periodically offers a $50–$100 bill credit per qualifying toilet, and MidAmerican Energy customers can receive an additional $25 efficiency rebate if the toilet is installed in combination with another water-saving fixture. Throne Plumbing handles all paperwork and provides the proof-of-purchase documents you need to claim the incentives.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take, and will my bathroom be out of service?
Most standard replacements take 60–90 minutes from shut-off to cleanup, assuming the flange and shut-off valve are in good shape. We schedule convenient two-hour arrival windows, bring floor protection and haul away the old toilet. Your bathroom is usually back in operation the same day, with minimal downtime—often less than two hours total.
Can Throne Plumbing retrofit any bathroom, or are there size and plumbing limitations?
We stock compact-elongated, round-front, ADA-height and even concealed-trapway models, so we can fit virtually any rough-in distance (10", 12", or 14") found in Clinton homes. During the free on-site evaluation, we check floor clearance, water-supply location, and flange condition to recommend a model that fits perfectly without expensive renovation.
What maintenance do high-efficiency toilets require after installation?
HETs need the same basic care as conventional toilets—occasional cleaning with non-abrasive cleaner and a yearly check of the flapper or seal. Because they use less water, some models employ canister-style flush valves that last longer than traditional flappers. Throne Plumbing includes a five-year parts and labor warranty and leaves you with an owner’s guide showing how to quickly replace wear items with no special tools.
