What You Need to Know

Flushometers are tankless devices commonly used in commercial spaces to conserve water and enable quick re-flushing. These systems rely on line pressure to provide flushing without a tank, and their durable design makes them suited for high-traffic restrooms.

Federal guidelines mandate manual and touchless units must be ADA-compliant and operable with one hand. Urinals must use no more than 0.5 GPF (gallons per flush), and flush valves must use no more than 1.6 GPF.

Flushometer valves typically last 15 to 20 years with proper care and maintenance. Depending on usage frequency, internal components may require repair or replacement every 5 to 10 years. Replacing worn components ensures reliable operation and helps prevent costly repairs.
