Rear outlet toilets are also referred to as rear discharge, backflush, or ”P” Trap toilets. Back-flush toilets are the perfect option when a ground flushing model will not work. A standard toilet has an “S” Trap configuration where waste exits down through the toilet and into a sewer system that must be located below the toilet. In basements and first floor applications, you must pair a backflush toilet with a macerator pump (not included) for proper drainage. This 2 piece P-trap toilet may be used without a pump only when it is added to a second floor (above ground level). With the Rear Outlet, there is no need to tear up the floor to connect your toilet. Installation and repairs are easier as there is no need for lifting the toilet, which disrupts the wax seal. Yet another benefit in a smaller bathroom application is space. The rear outlet toilet tends to be a bit more narrow than a standard model. When every inch counts, this toilet helps create a greater sense of space between toilet and vanity or toilet and shower/ bath. Our rear outlet toilet kit is family-friendly as the toilet bowl measures only 15 inches from the seat to the floor, making it easier for children to use. These kits feature a half flush and full flush lever located on the side of the tank, a great, cost-effective feature that saves water. You will be able to choose how much water is need per flush, whether you are flushing solids or liquids. The lids on the Lift Assure Toilets feature a nice, soft closing hinge that helps prolong the life of the toilet seat.
