Horrible toilet!! I put one into a previous home in 2006. It was wonderful. Never had to flush twice. Just installed one a month ago and the thing is worthless. There is so little water in the toilet bowl that you need to flush at least three times if you do a number two.not what I was going for in my powder room when guests come over. Wish I could have the stupid thing ripped out and a different toilet installed, but I’m already in $500.

your video is very helpful the way you explaining is awesome

OK, we have entered the bizarro world, where left is right, up is down, literal is figurative, and AERATION is done without adding AIR. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In the world where I USED to live, the word aeration (derived from Latin "aer") LITERALLY (the old version of literally, not the new one that means figuratively) meant adding AIR to the water. Gerber makes some scary and dubious claims at 0:24 where they say aerators bring "ALL THE MICROBES from the bathroom environment" into the water. But I'm already breathing those microbes in the air, so what additional hazard is caused by washing my hands with aerated soapy water? Forget about the faucet, I guess I'll have to don my N95 mask every time I enter the bathroom. I am aware that in a surgical setting, splashing water can be very unhygienic, so hospitals shouldn't aerate their water. Oh wait, they actually do wear N95 masks in a surgical setting, and for good reason. That's best practice for a HOSPITAL. But in a normal residential or commercial setting things are different. Soap is attracted to air-water interfaces (that's why it makes soap suds), so the extra air-water surface area created by REAL turbulent aeration is much more efficient at removing soap from your hands with much less water. Plus, the greater linear velocity of the aerated air-water mixture is more efficient at penetrating through the slick soap film on your hands, especially within the EPA's 1.5 GPM WaterSense limit. If the water is going so fast that it splashes off your hands and out of the sink, then turn down the flowrate. EPA will love you even more for that. This very concept of "laminarrr" aeration is an oxymoron. Think "aerobic" vs. "anaerobic". Enjoy watching your beautiful lamnarrr water streams from your luxurious "anaerators" while I go buy a faucet that actually aerates the water the old-fashioned turbulent way. I'll rinse my hands faster and with less water, and won't expose myself to any more microbes than I'm already breathing.

Exactly what I needed to see! Perfect! Thank You! And yes I knew this was a 12 yr old video.

nothing from costco under dual flash toilet.

Great video. It worked!

Ours is a little different I think it is an Adler. once we got the cartridge out. There’s a white round assembly with a black trim at the bottom but can’t get it to come loose.

Is this toilet still manufactured

Explain the 50foot carry doesn't seem like enough

What is the drain line carry distance of the viper 1.6gpf

In the future how do you replace the cartridge?

Look kind of low. How did he tighten it?

Thank you great video

Geez america has goofy looking toilets

I don't know why they make these thing so tight...I've had 2 that are so tight they move the whole piece from the base.

I prefer this over the rest of the crap.

Can you make a detailed video explaining how to adjust the flush valve (GA712017)? I want to adjust the flush amounts for both 1&2 flushes but I can’t seem to figure it out. I have three of these toilets and would love to get this fixed.

It's not about being Green. It's all about how the toilet performance is. It has to have a powerful flush .

Very New England!

My base moves, do I need to put putty to hold it

How does this compare to the Toto tornado flush?

😂 *Promo sm*

Exactly the video I needed! Thank you!

excellent

Will poo stick to the side of the bowl?

I gotten the gerber viper toilet and it’s new thx

Brilliantly clear. Now to try it and see if it works on my - slightly different - Franke Swing Tap 115.0155.644 in UK.

What is this faucet style called

I see that this video was from 11 years ago but it could have been 30 years, it was spot on and worked like a charm. Much thanks to you, sir!

Thank you!!

Aqua saver had a genius design w/rim hole placement ( could have added a few more in the back) but the underdog usually gets overlooked but it should come back too. Larger trap extra rim holes ... Just a thought 🤷🏽

One of the steps super not needed…… wasting time with a sponge to get the water out of the tank…………………………………….. STOP IT GET SOME HELP.

Getting one Gerber viper tomorrow!!! Thanks for the info

What is the best material to buy?

What two requirements should toilets have? They should flush quietly and save water whenever someone only has to pee in them. Why should toilets flush quietly? Because loud toilets wake light sleepers and startle people with sensitive hearing. Saving water should mean that toilets use less water when they’re supposed to so that everyone has access to clean water! Simply flushing less often doesn’t keep water clean! It just means leaving behind a mess that can make anything else get dirty faster!

I must have the lowest end model because all three of mine plug daily.

The best work ever

You're handsome 🎉

What if the handle's the part that's stiff? It moves around with the faucet body, which moves where the hot and cold sit

Looks like I need to get some Rid-X then. I have this toilet since I bought my house 1 yr ago. It never flushed like this!

what was the inch long gold cylinder for that wasn't used?

Great video! I’m working with an old Danze handle single valve with an old cartridge - seems nothing new resembles this old cartridge and curious if a new cartridge that would allow for a new handle work? Trying to educate myself before testing this with water pressure.

Thanks for the video. I have a Danze faucet. Once I remove the cartridge and cartridge sleeve there is a metal base remaining that has a plastic sleeve that fits over it with a flange at the bottom that holds the faucet fixture down. There is a set pin through that plastic sleeve and the metal base. This prevents the sleeve from being removed which prevents the faucent from being removed. I even gently tapped on the set pin to see if it was easily removable but it is not. Its as if Danze designed this faucet to prevent any maintenance like what you demonstrated in this video - which is madness. Would be thankful for any additional advice you might have.

Does the tank cover just sit on top the tank or over the tank like most? It looks like it’s sitting on top. If on top won’t it slide off and break?

Doesn’t look the tank lid fits over tank and sits on top?

I want this one! Which one is it?

Do they have a swirl flush and is it good?

Easy to install, czcams.com/users/postUgkxjA-hDN2m8_mi0Dg0JD8U6QiArozIAc4I and comfortable. No idea what other people were talking about when they said it was difficult to install or uncomfortable.

The cartridge of the original 40-100/400 single handle kitchen was held onto the body with a 1 1/16 size socket that was needed because the nut surface was below the threaded sleeve that retained the spout. This was problematic for cartridge removal. I asked Les what the thinking was behind the need for this very odd socket size. He responded he had one in his tool box. I had to go to a NAPA auto parts store to find one and at that time it was a $25 socket. That’s when I realized Les operated at a level I could never understand. RIP Les
