To determine the gallons of water used each time you flush the toilet:
- Shut the toilet’s water flow off at the shut-off valve.
- Check the level of water in the tank.
- Flush the toilet. The water will go down but not refill since the valve is shut off.
- Use a gallon size container to refill the tank to the fill line.
- Now that you know how much water your toilet uses per flush check out post :138 for information about low-flush toilets that really work to see how much water you could be saving.
