    Seen these? http://www.propelair.com/

    I grabbed a leaflet at Ecobuild but didn't have time to stop an enquire. Doesn't look like they're available on the market yet?

    I have just eaten a kilo of chips for a dare, doubt if it will cope in the morning. :shamed:

    Interesting. Pity I didn't hear about this 3 weeks ago - I would have included it in an exemplar house which everyone could go and see, coming to an Innovation Park near you mid April (if you live in Scotland that is).

    As it is, I had to settle for 4/2 litre units fed with grey water.

    Nice to see the BS EN ISO standard turds being used in a demonstration again - it cracks me up every time I see them :bigsmile:

    One disappointment of the product marketing is the totally inaccurate claim that the 'average WC' uses 9 litres per flush. They shouldn't tell lies to sell a product. Far too many firms do this and it affects their credibility and casts doubt over their other claims.

    What's wrong with comparing it to the 6 litre maximum? The only buildings I'm aware of which have 9 litre flush WCs are listed ones where the original fittings and cisterns have been retained for conservation / historic reasons. Even then, Hippos or the like can be added to reduce the flush volume.

    Anyone been on a cruise ship? Absolute models of water efficiency - about 1/2 litre flush vacuum units and they have to deal with american sized meals. :bigsmile:
