America and her Toilets
[COLOR=#1D2129][FONT=Helvetica]OK, let’s have a serious discussion about toilets.
The current president of the United States claims that sometimes we have to flush 10-15 times before it all goes down. Now, I’m assuming he’s self-referencing because I’ve never had anything typical like that happen in the john that required 10-15 flushes. I can however appreciate that some of us are full of it (if you know what I mean) but even our stable genius electorally elected president probably does not power dump that much.
So, let’s do the mat[FONT=inherit]h, according to bladder and bowel community website the average healthy person urinates 6-7 times in a day and does the other thing once.
[/FONT][FONT=inherit]Modern toilets use about 1.6 gallons per flush or 9.6-11.2 gallons per day to remove urine and one regular bowel movement daily to add another 1.6 gallons.
[/FONT][FONT=inherit]Therefore:[/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#1D2129][FONT=Helvetica][FONT=inherit]Average modern toilet uses
11.2 – 12.8 gallons per day.

[FONT=inherit]For older, less efficient toilets made in the 1980’s the average flush is about 3.5 gallons. Therefore, the daily usage would be about:

[FONT=inherit]Older per regulation toilets
24.5 – 28 gallons daily.
[/FONT]
[FONT=inherit]Modern toilets use less than ˝ the water to flush which should allow for some extra flushing in case of emergency and still use less water.

[FONT=inherit]Here’s the deal, if you need 10-12 flushes with modern toilet per bathroom event…
[/FONT]
[FONT=inherit]SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY!

[FONT=inherit]Other than that, I suspect our USA's presidents “stink” with modern toilets is illogical.

[FONT=inherit]Seriously, he's just full of it.[/FONT]
