I am trying to understand if Toto's flushing systems are totally discrete or whether they share components with one another.
For instance, my understanding is that E-Max is an evolution of G-Max, and is identical except for the float on the plunger. So, it's safe to assume that they flush with comparable authority.
I don't know if it's a marketing thing, but the Dual Cyclone is listed as it's own system. But isn't it simply the design of the top of the bowl? What about what's going on in the tank and the siphon and the trap? Doesn't a 1.28 Dual Cyclone toilet share the same flush flapper/valve, siphon, and trapway design as an 1.28 E-Max toilet? Wouldn't "E-Max with Dual Cyclone rinse technology" be more accurate? Or, do the E-Max designs have features not present in the Dual Cyclone designs?
Below are tank photos of the Eco Drake (E-Max) and the Dual Cyclone Gwyneth (aka Ultramax II) . According to the spec sheets, the newer Drake II and Ultramax II (as well as the now discontinued Gwenyth) have a smaller water spot than the Eco Drake and Eco Ultramax.
If someone could shed some light on this, comparing the plethora of Toto toilets will be a lot simpler.
Thanks.
