Will this empty a full toilet?

No, I would suggest at least a five gallon vac. When the water level reaches a certain level in the vac it will sometimes squirt out the exhaust before it stops. If the toilet will flush, pour a 5 gallon pail of water into the toilet to forch water out without it refilling and that will lessen the amount of water in the bowl. If that works should be able to get by with a 1.5 gallon vac.

I'm not sure how useful this answer will be, as it probably greatly depends on the toilet itself, but with my toilets it takes about 1.75 gallons for a full flush. When I installed the FlushSaver, I kept full flush at about the same amount of water, an the half flush is about 0.75 gallons. The flush quantity is quite adjustable on the FlushSaver, so you can modify the amount of water used for both the full and half flush.

I don't think it will work on toilets. If you could get it into a sewer pipe it might clear a small clog. In my experience a sewer line calls for Roto Rotor or something with a powerful snake. The thing really worked on kitchen drain but I had access to the main pipe.

Yes it does, that's what it is designed for. I woudn't flush anything that you would not normalyflush down a toilet. This is the second one that I have installed I have one in the house I live in now and am building a new house and have installed it there also.

No, it stays around for a bit, there was a pile at the bottom of my toilet for a few days after using it.

No. But the upper part comes off easily and the bottom part is carried to where you want to empty it. It doesn't spill or leak out and there is a hole with a top you open to pour out the contents. Just a note: I only use this toilet for liquids, if you get my drift, just to avoid extra clean-up.

No it doesn't. To empty, you just carry it to the dump station, remove the seat, swing the drain tube out, and drain directly into the pipe.

It worked on the urine in the front of toilet better than bleach. I used this product with the Rubbermaid power scrubber and it worked great!

I would think so, it just goes into your septic. Whatever you would normally flush would be good to go.

My experience is with a Kohler Rialto one-piece toilet. If this is what you have, I would not recommend this fill valve. It won't supply enough water for a complete flush. I've had very good results with this OEM kit, Kohler 84499 1B1X Conversion Kit. Good luck.

I am a 60 year old woman also, and I am the primary caretaker of our toilet. Emptying the urine bottle isn't hard. I rinse mine briefly with the hose afterwards. Emptying the solid waste tank can be hard. It is quite heavy when full, and you need to be able to turn it upside down into a trash bag to empty it out. But I manage usually all by myself, and it doesn't need emptying very often. I think I empty ours 2-3x per year for our toilet that is used on weekends by 2 people about 2x / month. The floor needs a good scrubbing after that, because somehow, no matter how hard I try, some of the used peat escapes. Then, of course you have to refill it with clean moist peat. That isn't hard, but it is kind of messy. I clean the bowl frequently with bathroom cleaning wipes(don't toss those inside). Not much else to do. I would say you need to be involved with your toilet, but for me, it isn't so hard or so awful that I want to kick it. Congratulations on your tiny house.

No! We have had 3 clogged toilets on our septic system since we tried this TP out. Will go back to our other brand.

Yes if you forgot, it would eventually overfill the black tank and rise out the toilet. This would probably take about a half hour. You don't need to fill the tank up or even get close to that. I just turn it on and wait by the monitor and keep checking till it gets about 2/3 full. Flush and fill again till about 1/3. Flush and stay outside and just try to fill the bottom of the tank ( about a min) then empty. Just don't turn it on and get involved in something else!

No, I think it only works for a 3 inch pipe that is not a toilet. They make bigger ones, but not sure if it is meant for a toilet.

Yes it works over a regular toilet without the bucket--however--it will depend upon the width of the area around your commode. It does not work in the little 1/2 bath area.

Yes it will work if the standard toilet has a big enough notch in the back of the toilet. If it does not he can cut a deep enough notch and install the auto flush kit. This kit will work with a flapper, a round flapper as long as it has a spot to to lift the flap. I have it installed on all four of my toilets and they work like a champ.

Yes. The seat lifts up like a regular toilet seat. When you lift up the seat the bucket can be lifted out for emptying.
