I’m actually serious, which button is the right one? Why are there two?
Also should a Pic of a toilet be considered NSFW?
ITT: A lot of Lemmy users showing their true colors. Someone asks for help, for information, and y’all decide to mock.
OP: one button does a full flush, the other does a half flush. In your picture, the button on the right, does the half flush. Button on the left, does the full flush. Full flush is usually just x2, though I don’t think that’s a hard rule.
This is your standard dual flush. One is flush, the other is eject. Which is which depends on the manufacturer. Just be careful, the eject can be quite forceful.
As for which button is the right one, it’s definitely the one on the right. The other is the left button.
So the smaller seashell shape makes a small flush. The larger seashell shape makes a bigger flush, and the combined seashell shape (both buttons) makes a huge flush.
The secret of the 3 shells finally revealed!
Welp. Isn’t it obvious? The smaller one for your pee and the bigger one for your brown colored dump
But ONLY if it’s brown. Any other color has a corresponding button under the tank.
People are joking about this but I have a toilet where the large button is for a half flush. Pressing the small button depresses both buttons performing a regular flush. I have never found another toilet like this, thank the stars!
I am also in the large button, small flush gang. I assume it’s that way so the flush you use most frequently is bigger, but it does seem counterintuitive.
IT IS FOR WATER CONSERVATION: The larger lever is to flush out around 6 to 9 liters of water, whereas the smaller lever is to flush out around 3 to 4.5 liters of water. Clearly, the larger one is to flush solid waste and the smaller one is to flush liquid waste.
Bigger button is for solid waste, smaller button uses less water for liquid waste.
