re: Does anyone have a commercial grade toilet in their home?

I have the american standard vormax and a toto in our house. The vormax is by far the best toilet I've ever owned. Toto makes a version of this and I believe they came up with the design, but were 2x as expensive.

Don't you have to change to 1" pipes to do that...?

I just want to add one of those sensors that automatically flush.

Just call it John Wayne, dude, like normal people. And to answer your q, no.

I came across one in a house once and I was shocked.
They had a hood vent for it and had a really large kitchen. Had a huge Vulcan oven too. An eight burner. They had a lot of kids like 9 or 10.
Then my favorite fridge set up. A full size Frigidaire fridge and a full size matching freezer with the trim kit to make it look like a more expensive unit.
Still in all I see Vulcan and commercial even TRUE coolers in houses. But only once have I seen a rack dishwasher in a house.
cost you about four grand though

when it flushes you think you’re on an airplane. Like it creates a draft throughout the house. Usually a few degrees cooler in there too after a few flushes.

I always said when I ever built my own house I’d install those units that are used in hospitals- you can flush a dozen golf balls if needed.

You want to hear about a mindfrick? I read your thread title, then clicked on what I thought was your thread. What I read went like this:
I had a solid ten or so seconds of total confusion.

Get a toilet with a jet pack in the tank like they have in the rooms at the Beau Rivage.

I've seen residential pressurized toilets and they work a little different than the commercials ones.
I'd be concerned about a serious clog causing a fast overflow.

Flushmate is the closest thing you can get to those commercial type flushes. I know they come with some Kohler and Sloan toilets. Any Ferguson showroom should have some. I wanted one for my master bath but we needed a replacement in a hurry for a cracked tank. I ended up with a Kohler model from Home Depot with the piston flush valve. It’s been pretty legit so far.

I have installed the Flushmate system in all 4 of my home’s bathrooms. Guests routinely marvel after flushing and ask how they too can have such a fine system in their home toilets.
The system uses a compressed water tank inside your toilet’s water reservoir. When you flush, it feels like riding a Harley.
For around $100, you can have one too. Just browse this LINK to find which system best fits your toilet, pay online, and have it shipped. I recommend buying the specialized tools that make installation a breeze. Installation took me around 30 minutes per toilet. It was so easy, my wife did one herself, as did my youngest son.
If it’s the little things in life like a satisfying toilet flush that bring you joy in life, then you’re gonna love this goddamn toilet. I only wish it came with a kick-start flush mechanism and handlebars with a throttle so I could ride in style.

We replaced our toilets with these after Katrina and they are amazing. We call them super flushes. They are a pretty loud but you get used to it and they have never clogged. Highly recommend. I think they are American Standard.

Did you just install those into your existing toilets? The website says it’s not a retrofit system but I was wondering. Porcelain is porcelain. I didn’t think it mattered but also didn’t want my toilet to explode.

Good question. I should have clarified that I installed new ones into all of my toilets. The toilets already had an older generation system installed. The materials used in an earlier generation allowed a fine mist spray inside the tank after about 15 years. I started replacing the parts about 6 years ago when the issue was observed and recently completed the last one.

We have a pressure assist toilet in our half bath. You could throw a bag of marbles in it and they would be flushed away. You can flush again 15 seconds later. You won't be able to shite incognito because it is loud.
