FAQs
Why should I upgrade to a dual-flush toilet instead of keeping my current single-flush model?
Dual-flush toilets give you two flushing options—one for liquid waste (about 0.8 gpf) and one for solid waste (about 1.28 gpf). Households in Rockwood typically cut toilet water use by 40–60 %, saving up to 13,000 gallons a year and noticeably lowering utility bills. Because indoor water demand drops, the Town of Rockwood offers seasonal conservation rebates, and many homeowners see payback on the upgrade within two to three years.
Will a dual-flush toilet work with the plumbing I already have in my Rockwood home?
In almost every case, yes. Modern dual-flush toilets use the same 12-inch rough-in and standard 3- or 4-inch waste line as existing gravity-flush toilets. During our free on-site inspection we confirm flange height, venting, and water-supply shut-off compatibility. If your flange is damaged or set too low for a new bowl, we can install a spacer or replacement flange during the same visit.
What styles and bowl heights are available for dual-flush models?
Our Rockwood showroom stocks compact round-front bowls for small powder rooms, full-size elongated bowls, and ADA/"comfort-height" options that sit about 17–19 inches from floor to seat top. Customers can also choose between one-piece designs (sleeker, easier to clean) and two-piece designs (more economical). All models are glazed with high-performance coatings that resist staining and mineral buildup.
How much does a dual-flush toilet replacement cost in Rockwood?
Pricing depends on the brand, bowl style, and any flange or supply-line repairs required. Standard two-piece models start around $425 installed, mid-range comfort-height units average $575–$650, and premium one-piece or skirted bowls run $800–$1,100. Rockwood’s water-efficiency rebate currently returns $75 per qualifying toilet, and we handle all paperwork for you.
How long does installation take and what should I expect on the service day?
A straightforward swap takes 1½ to 2 hours. We arrive with floor protection, shut off the water, remove and recycle your old toilet, inspect/clean the flange, install a new wax or rubber seal, set and level the new bowl, connect the tank, test both flush settings, and silicone-seal the base. You can use the toilet within an hour of completion. All work is covered by a 2-year labor warranty in addition to the manufacturer’s parts warranty.
What maintenance does a dual-flush toilet require after installation?
Routine care is simple: clean the bowl with non-abrasive cleaners, wipe the seat and buttons weekly, and avoid bleach tablets in the tank (they degrade seals). Every 3–5 years you may need to replace the rubber seal on the flush valve—an inexpensive, 10-minute job. If either button becomes stiff or the toilet begins to run, call us; we stock OEM parts for all models we install and can usually resolve issues on the same day.
