FAQs
What is a dual-flush toilet and how does it save water?
A dual-flush toilet offers two flushing options: a low-volume button or lever (usually 0.8–1.1 gallons per flush) for liquid waste and a full-volume flush (1.28–1.6 gpf) for solid waste. By matching water output to the type of waste, households typically use 30-50 % less water than with older 3.5-gallon gravity toilets, translating into lower utility bills and conservation of thousands of gallons of potable water each year in Englewood.
Are dual-flush toilets compatible with Englewood’s plumbing codes and water-efficiency requirements?
Yes. Englewood follows Colorado plumbing code, which permits and encourages EPA WaterSense-certified fixtures. Dual-flush models carrying the WaterSense label meet the maximum 1.28 gpf requirement and are fully code-compliant. Our licensed plumbers pull the necessary permits, ensure the rough-in dimensions match (10", 12" or 14"), and submit the final inspection paperwork on your behalf.
How much can I expect to save on my water bill after upgrading to a dual-flush model?
Savings depend on household size and the age of your current toilet. Replacing one 3.5-gallon toilet with a WaterSense dual-flush unit in a four-person Englewood home usually reduces water usage by 13,000–16,000 gallons per year. At Englewood’s average water/sewer rate of roughly $0.011 per gallon, that is $140–$175 in annual savings, meaning most customers recoup the cost of the new fixture and installation within 2–3 years.
Will a dual-flush toilet fit my existing bathroom rough-in?
Most Colorado homes have a 12-inch rough-in (the distance from the finished wall to the center of the closet flange). Dual-flush models are available in 10-, 12- and 14-inch sizes. During our free on-site estimate we measure the rough-in, floor clearance, and water-supply position, then recommend units with the correct footprint so you avoid costly flooring or drywall alterations.
Can your technicians replace my old toilet in a single visit, and what does the service include?
Yes. A standard swap-out takes 1.5–2 hours. Our technicians arrive with floor protection, remove and haul away the old toilet, inspect the flange, install a new wax or wax-free seal, set and level the dual-flush unit, connect the supply line, test both flushes, and caulk the base. We clean the work area, provide maintenance tips, and leave you with the manufacturer’s warranty documents.
Do you offer rebates or permit assistance for dual-flush installations in Englewood?
Englewood customers may qualify for a Denver Water $75 rebate on WaterSense toilets rated 1.1 gpf or less for single flush or 0.8/1.28 gpf dual-flush models. Our office completes the rebate form, attaches proof of purchase, and submits it for you. We also handle city permit applications, schedule required inspections, and include those fees in your written quote so there are no surprise costs.
