What's unique about the One2flush?

It's the first American-assembled dual flush toilet conversion kit that allows homeowners to reduce the amount of water being pumped into their existing toilets by 40% without losing flushing power. Before our product came to market, consumers resorted to spending big bucks on brand-new dual flush conversion toilets, or buying foreign mail-order conversion kits that are complicated in design, complicated to install and just don't work very well, or they put bricks in their tank, that sort of thing. The One2flush is also superior to traditional flapper-type single flush kits which are made of thin plastic and rubber, which can become brittle and cracked after just a few years, especially from in-tank toilet cleaning tablets. Our unit is made from tough, recycled ABS plastic and silicon seals which are more resistant to cracking.

How does it work?

The One2flush is a dual-chamber unit controlled by the direction of the flushing handle. Push the handle one way for liquids, and only the top valve will open, drawing in just enough water to rinse away the liquid waste, small amounts of toilet paper and flushable feminine products. Push the handle the other way for solids, and both flush valves will open, completely emptying the tank to flush away solid waste.

How much does it cost?

Suggested retail is $34.95.

How easy is it to install?

Any adult can install this product with the right tools-a crescent wrench, a channel lock, Philips screwdriver, a bucket and a sponge. Our online video features a typical do-it-herselfer installing the unit. The average DIYer will need 30 minutes; the novice, about 40 minutes.

How much water will the One2flush save?

Thirty gallons a day for the average American family, or more than 10,000 gallons per year. That's the size of a 27-foot long swimming pool.

Who is your market?

Our primary market is females, 25+, who own their homes, handle the family budget, want to save money and be good to the environment at the same time. The packaging is light and airy with lots of blues and bubbles, to evoke feelings of fresh water and cleanliness. The packaging is also unusual in shape so that it can be picked up easily by a female hand. Our secondary market is do it yourselfers, men and women, browsing the toilet repair aisle at their local hardware store for the typical rubber flapper, single flush system. They see our product instead, and realize two benefits at once-their toilet can be repaired AND converted to a water-saving, money-saving dual flush conversion system at the same time.

Where is One2flush available?

One2flush will be available in retail hardware stores like Ace, True Value and Orchard Supply Hardware, and online at www.walmart.com. Other hardware and lifestyle retailers are being contacted and will be included on this page as they come on-board.

Will One2flush fit any existing toilet?

One2flush fits 90% of the 220 million existing two piece residential style toilets. The remaining 10% cannot use our product because of 3" tank to bowl hole size.

How is One2flush different from other toilet kits on the market?

 

1. Current toilet repair kits are traditional single-flush systems that have been on the market for several decades, but they offer no water-saving features. These kits are also made of materials, such as rubber flappers, that wear out faster from constant flushing and common household cleaning agents placed in the tank. The One2flush is made from nearly indestructible ABS plastic and non-leaking silicon.
2. Current dual flush conversion kits are sold online and look as if Rube Goldberg manufactured them. Their designs are complicated and difficult to to install, and in our opinion, just don't work very well.

Is there any other way for a homeowner to reduce the amount of water the toilet uses besides investing in a dual conversion kit?

Some homeowners have placed bricks or water bags in their tanks to allow less water to fill up the tank, and therefore less water being flushed out each time. Other homeowners have discarded their current toilet and purchased a new dual-flush conversion toilet, but at costs of $500-$750. Since porcelain does not degrade, we're advocates of retrofitting existing toilets to reduce landfill space across America, in addition to the obvious water-conservation benefits.
