![A steel tank is located inside the
china tank. Uses pressure from the water supply system. A 1.5 in. water supply
line provides 25 psi pressure, compressing trapped air in the tank. When
flushed the compressed air forces the water out. The bowl is designed to accept
the torrent of water. The crest of the surging water empties the bowl through
the enlarged trap. Large water surface makes this model efficient. Design
features make it suitable for residential use. Flushing
is very noisy. Low water usage (1.5 gpf) helps conserve water. Expensive. - ProProfs]( "A steel tank is located inside the
