Flushing action can be obtained directly from a flush valve connected into the bowl
Direct Flush Valve ( DFV water closets)
-Water enters through an open rim, as though a bucket of water were dumped into the bowl, filling the front trap way and creating siphon action.
-This model provides quick removal of water with minimum water rise.
-Small water surface makes the model more vulnerable to soiling and clogging. This is the least efficient and most noisy type but lowest in cost
Wash Down
- Water enters through rim punchings and through a jet that fills the rear trapway completely, creating a siphon action and resulting in quick withdrawal of water from the bowl.
- A water jet is located at the inlet of the trapway. Most of the bowl surface is covered with water.
- This model is efficient but moderately noisy. Its cost is reasonably low.
o Reverse Trap
- Water enters through rim punchings and jets placed in an up-leg of the rear trap, filling the trapway and creating an instant siphon action without rise of water level.
- The result is quick water withdrawal. Large water surface provides an efficient and clean operation.
- With quiet flushing and moderate cost, this is the most popular residential model.
o Siphon Jet
- Water enters through diagonal punching around the rim of the bowl, creating a vortex that draws the water down into the rear trap with a swirling action that scours the walls of the bowl.
- Water strikes two parallel ridges and folds over forming a jet, producing siphonic action.
- Large water surface provides a very efficient and clean process, and the flushing is extremely quiet. This model is mostly of one-piece construction with a low profile.
- Expensive.
