Look for a glazed trap, and an oversized trap. I have a toto which
works very well, but is pricey. My son had to replace one of his and
got an American Standard Cadet, which cost far less and appears to work
just as well. I went with him to Lowe's to buy it, and noticed that the
packaging and labels at the store don't give the information you need
(size of trap, etc.), so you have to get that elsewhere.

I have recently been working on my toilet because of some simple
flapper leakage problems. While working on it, I decided to settle my
curiosity about how much water it took per flush. Much to my surprise
I found that it took 4 gallons of water to fill it to the usual flush
line! I wondered why my family was having such high water usage....
now I know why. Anyway, I have decided to change the toilet out for
a more efficient 1.5 gal model. What I would like to know is what do
you look for when buying one of these things. Also.... are they as
efficient in flushing as the one I presently have?? I noticed that
the price of toilets at Home Depot also ranged from about $75 to $300.
That is quite a range. What is the difference??

Thanks, Al Kondo
