Redwood City's Toilet Rebate Program
Uses Key Performance Standards to Ensure High Quality Toilets
The Redwood City Toilet Rebate Program uses two Performance Standards to ensure
that the toilet models which customers purchase will provide High-Flushing
Performance and Lifetime Water Savings.
- High-Flushing Performance: Redwood City’s Program sets
the flushing performance standard at 500 grams, which is twice the
minimum of 250 grams flushing performance standard set by an independent
toilet Maximum Performance Study (MaP Study). That
study tested all the toilet models and ranked them according to their flushing
performance.
- Lifetime Water Savings: To ensure the best long-term water savings,
Redwood City’s Program adopted the Los
Angeles Department of Water & Power Specification, regarding flapper
durability in gravity-fed models. This level of flapper durability ensures
that you won't ever have to replace a flapper with one that uses more water,
which would erode or reduce the intended water savings.
