Help! I live in a 14-unit condo building, and I am on the board. The building is old, having been formerly a candy factory. We have been having some extremely damaging leaks occuring as a result of 1.6 galllon toilets being installed in our current infrastructure, where there used to be 3.5 gallon toilets. We have been told by plumbers that we need to either find used 3.5 gallon toilets and replace the 1.6 gallon ones with those (since our plumbing is not set up for 1.6 gallon toilets), or completely re-do the plumbing in the walls. With the latter being a much more expensive option, we're opting for the former. An additional challenge we have is that our toilets are rear spud, but not wall mounted. In other words, they are floor and wall mounted (no carrier needed) with a rear (not floor) spud.
Any suggestions on where to find used 3.5 gallon toilets w/rear spud that are both floor and wall mounted? Or are there any 1.6 gallon rear spud models that LEIGITIMATELY have the flushing power of a 3.5 gallon model?
Thanks for any thoughts!
