FAQs
What is a one-flush efficiency toilet and how does it differ from a standard model?
A one-flush efficiency toilet is engineered to remove 100% of bowl contents with a single, high-powered flush while using no more than 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF). Traditional toilets may use 1.6 â 3.5 GPF and often require a second flush to clear the bowl. One-flush models achieve superior performance through optimized bowl geometry, larger trapways, and precision-engineered flush valves, giving you the same or better clearing power with up to 60 % less water.
How much water and money can I save by upgrading to a one-flush efficiency toilet in Crossville?
For a household of four, switching from a 3.5 GPF toilet to a 1.28 GPF model can save roughly 16,500 gallons of water per year. At Crossvilleâs average water/sewer rates, that equates to about $120â$150 in annual utility savings. Over the life of the toilet (15â20 years), many homeowners recoup $1,800 or more, not including potential rebates or avoided septic maintenance costs from reduced water loading.
Do you handle the removal and environmentally responsible disposal of my old toilet?
Yes. Our licensed plumbers will shut off the water, safely detach the old fixture, and haul it away at no additional charge. We partner with regional recycling facilities, so any porcelain or metal parts that can be reclaimed are diverted from landfills. If the old unit is in reusable condition, we donate it to local housing charities in Cumberland County.
Can a one-flush efficiency model be installed in my existing bathroom without major remodeling?
In most cases, absolutely. Modern high-efficiency toilets are designed to fit standard 12-inch rough-in plumbing and use the same water-supply connection as older units. We verify rough-in dimensions during our free on-site assessment and can usually complete the swap in 1â2 hours with no floor, wall, or tile modifications. If you have an unusual rough-in (10" or 14") or limited clearance, we stock compact and offset-flange models to ensure a seamless fit.
Are there rebates or incentives available in Crossville for installing water-saving toilets?
Yes. The Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC) periodically funds utility rebates that offer $40â$100 per qualifying high-efficiency toilet. Many Crossville Utilities customers also qualify for a residential efficiency credit applied directly to their water bill after installation. We supply the documentation, model certifications (EPA WaterSense label), and completed forms so you can claim all available incentives.
What kind of warranty and post-installation support do you provide?
All one-flush efficiency toilets we install carry a manufacturerâs limited lifetime warranty on vitreous china and a 5- to 10-year warranty on internal parts, depending on the brand you choose. Our labor is guaranteed for 2 full years, which means if any leak, rocking, or flushing issue arises because of installation, weâll fix it at no charge. We also include a complimentary annual performance check during your first year to ensure everything remains in top condition.
