How to Flush Up Toilets

Flush your flush up toilet.

The flush mechanism for standard toilets has been ingrained in our minds, so flush up toilets can get a little confusing. Flush up toilets use a pump system to discharge waste through a pipe. When you flush, waste is dropped into a macerator behind the toilet. The macerator grinds waste down to small particle size, then allows the pump to discharge all the waste. Most flush up toilets use an electrical activating flushing system to trigger the macerator and pump. The bowl is filled and the sides are washed after a flush.

Instructions

1. Look for a silver pneumatic button on top of the toilet. This button is connected to the electricity and triggers the flushing process.

2. Push the button on the toilet down all the way and release. This will trigger the flushing mechanism. Waste is dropped into the macerator and then pumped out into the drainage pipe. Water will fill the bowl and clean the sides.

3. Wait until the flush up toilet has stopped making noise and returned to its normal state to make sure the flush worked.
