It was the best I could find in the price range we could aford. I guess my constitutionals regularly exceed the max for the MaP standard :-( | |

My 1.25 sometimes needs a second flush, as did the 5 - that's 7.5 gallons saved right there. Most of the time it does just fine on one. If you have a 3.5-2 GPF that does not work well, IMHO you'd be better off scrapping it and replacing with a modern unit. | |

Early "low flush" were not done well - recent ones are very much better (amazing what actual hydraulic design, rather than just shrinking the flush volume without changing anything else, can do) while using even less water than those early ones that flush poorly. | |
