FAQs
What is a dual-flush toilet and how does it save water in Corryton homes?
A dual-flush toilet has two buttons or levers that release different volumes of water: a low-volume flush (usually 0.8–1.1 gallons) for liquid waste and a higher-volume flush (1.28–1.6 gallons) for solid waste. This design reduces overall water use by up to 60 % compared with older 3.5–5.0 gallon toilets common in many Corryton households, lowering both your utility bill and your environmental footprint.
Will a dual-flush upgrade fit my existing toilet rough-in and plumbing?
Most modern homes in Corryton have the standard 12-inch rough-in distance. Our eco-friendly replacement models are designed to match this and to connect to existing 3- or 4-inch waste lines without modification. If your bathroom has a 10-inch or 14-inch rough-in or unique flange height, our technicians can recommend special-order bowls or adjustable flanges to ensure a proper seal and code-compliant installation.
How long does a typical dual-flush replacement take and will I be without a toilet?
For a straightforward replacement, our licensed plumbers can remove the old fixture, install the new high-efficiency dual-flush toilet, run leak tests, and haul away debris in about 2–3 hours. You’ll regain full use of the bathroom the same day. If we discover subfloor damage, wax-ring issues, or need to upgrade shut-off valves, we’ll discuss options on-site; even with added repairs most projects finish within one business day.
Are there rebates or incentives available in Corryton for installing a high-efficiency dual-flush toilet?
Yes. Knoxville Utilities Board (KUB) and some surrounding water districts periodically offer $40–$100 bill credits when you replace a 1.6 gpf or higher toilet with a WaterSense-certified model. We supply the paperwork and proof-of-purchase, and we’ll walk you through the online submission so you can maximize savings. Check with your HOA or the Tennessee Department of Environment & Conservation for seasonal grant programs as well.
How much can I expect to pay for a dual-flush upgrade, including installation?
Costs vary by style and brand, but most WaterSense dual-flush toilets range from $275 to $525. Professional installation typically adds $150–$250, which includes removal of the old unit, new supply line, wax-ring or wax-free seal, disposal fees, and a one-year labor warranty. Upgrading to skirted designs, bidet seats, or quiet-close lids will add to the price, while utility rebates can offset $40–$100 of the total.
What maintenance is required and are replacement parts easy to find?
Dual-flush toilets have simplified valve assemblies made of corrosion-resistant ABS or silicone. Routine care involves cleaning the bowl with non-abrasive cleaners and checking the tank every 6–12 months for mineral buildup. If a button sticks or a seal wears out, universal canister gaskets and dual-flush valves are stocked at local Corryton hardware stores and major home centers. Our service team can perform quick in-home repairs, and most manufacturers offer 5- to 10-year parts warranties.
