Stay Clean While Going Green!

Toronto: When the market leader in high efficiency toilets brings a new model to market, it's time to take notice. American Standard has more 1000MaP tested high efficiency model toilets available to home owners than any other manufacturer in Canada and with the introduction of the high-performing H2Option Dual Flush unit their lead is sure to increase.

H2Option Dual Flush Toilet - Siphon Jetted Technology
"The H2Option Dual Flush toilet, meets the 6 litre full flush, 3.4 litre partial flush standard for high efficiency toilets while at the same time boosts day-to-day performance by adding superior siphon jetted technology," says Graeme Lennox, Marketing Manager for American Standard Brands in Canada. \"H2Option uses jetted siphonic action which adds push to the water from under the rim of the bowl. When the user flushes the H2Option, some of the water is instantly diverted to the rim of the toilet where there are a series of chambers. The air in these chambers pushes the ongoing coming water forcefully out into the bowl.

Combined with the force of the rest of the water entering the bowl, the siphon pull action is strong.\"

The H2Option Dual Flush toilet complies with the rigorous standards of the WaterSense program, recently launched by the Environmental Protection Agency in the USA.

A chrome-plated button centered on the top of the tank lets the user choose between full and partial flush. Apart from high performance and high water use efficiency, the new H2Option Dual Flush toilet incorporates design features, such as the sanitary dam on the rear of the bowl and flush-mounted actuating controls that make cleaning easier and faster. And a slow close toilet seat cover is also an added feature.

Wheel Chair Users
This stylish new bathroom fitting is available in three styles; a space-saving round fronted bowl, a more comfortable elongated bowl, and a taller elongated bowl for wheelchair users. Prices range from $425 to $495. The H2Option Dual Flush toilet will be available in June 2009 in White, Bone and Linen from Bath and Kitchen retail stores across Canada.
