Toilet???


While work is slow I am stuck working on things at home. In trying to keep the house cleaner happy we are wandering if there is a auto-flush toilet for home usage. Have not seen a "home-looking" one yet. And yes the purple primer did wear off of the boy! He invented more wild stories to go with it than I could ever dream up.

It doesn't exist, there is no need for it, most people will flush in their own homes or the homes of others, if you are having a problem with people not flushing in your home an auto flush toilet is not the correct answer.

Re: Toilet???


KTS,,, There are days that it is really hard to get 8 and 10 yr old boys to pay attention to the small stuff. They have rooms upstairs with their oun bathroom. There is a lot of the time it would be worth the money for such a unit for home use. Many of us in the trades like our familes to have the stuff that we deal with at work.If it makes life easier we tend to want it. Heck,,, my wife has been bugging me for a "potfiller" over the cooktop for years now. Why not????????

Re: Toilet???


You could get the automatic systems that are used in nightclubs and bars. You do your stuff and when you walk away the toilet flushes. You dont have to touch anything.

Teach your kids better discipline, it really is that simple, there is no excuse for laziness.

Re: Toilet???


My boys clog our toilets up on a regular basis. I shudder to think what kind of messes I'd have with auto flush toilets.

Re: Toilet???


My crapper is a 7 gallon squirrel drowning machine.

The rule in our house is: If it yellow let it mellow, if it's brown flush it down. I break the last part sometimes, it drives my 4 year old crazy!!

Teach them not to be so nasty now, or they'll grow up to be one of the many disgusting adults, who leave public toilets unflushed.
