Toilet cutaways...

[Brian Rockas]

hey guys, new to the site but have found it useful thus far. i am the director of maintenance for several senior apt buildings and have started a quarterly workshop for the residents. we will discuss various topics and go over things to help them reduce the amount of unnecessary workorders and stress to them as well. the biggest issue we have is toilets and clogging of them. you'd be surprised by the things some people think are "flushable". my question is this, i am trying to find a "cutaway" toilet model. i am having no luck at all... any suggestions as to how to find or possibly do myself? thanks!

Hey, thanks for the reply... I guess I should have been a little more clear... I'm trying to find the actual cut in half toilet... The images are good, and based on my lack of luck in tracking this down, might be all I can use... But I'd like to find the actual toilet...

You're going to have to hit manufacturers directly for showroom equipment.

May want to attrend the next plumbers expo in your town, they usually have displays like that.

Of course, you may also get lucky from garage sales like ebay.

It would be tedious, but you could probably cut one with a grinder and a diamond cutoff wheel. Other than the manufacturer, I doubt you'd find that sort of thing for sale.
