Thus, failures and myths that surround flush tanks are commonplace but often lead to misunderstandings of basic features of functionality, maintenance, and efficiency for most bathrooms. Here are some common myths about flush tanks, along with the facts to debunk them:

1. Larger tanks mean improved flushing performance
Reality: Flush capacity strictly depends on the kind of flushing system in the cistern tank, water pressure and the design but not the size. Contemporary small-capacity tanks outfitted with modern elaborate systems possess the capacity to flush as competently as the large ones but in less quantity of water.

2. Dual-Flush Tanks Waste Water
Reality: The dual flush tanks are specially designed to enable the flushing of two kinds of wastes; liquid wastes require a lower volume of water than solid wastes do. We will go back to using water more efficiently than the previously used single-flush systems.

3.  They are also difficult to repair compared to other tanks such as the concealed tanks that are normally fixed behind walls or floors.

Reality: Even though concealed tanks may appear somewhat more elusive they have simple to get rid of flush plates which can help reach components that require servicing or overhaul without even needing to move walls.

4.  It’s Really No Big Deal to Operate at the Tank With No Shutting Off
Reality: A running tank still costs time and money to maintain, sometimes resulting in thousands of litres wasted in a year and high water bills. One has to remember, that it has to be solved as soon as possible.

5. All Flush Tanks Are Noisy
Reality: Today’s flush tanks are designed with sound evidence or noise protection technology. Low sound-emitting fill valves, along with insulated tanks significantly reduce noise during flushing and refilling activities.

6.  It is often quoted that to flush the toilet you require a lot of water.
Reality: New technologies of flushing toilets and flushing tanks include high efficiency and low water flush, which uses as low as 4.5 litres per flush while the older ones use up to 13 litres.

7. The Chemicals in the Tank Gives Cleaner Toilets
Reality: Some chemical cleaners are understood to be effective in eradicating stains or eliminating odours but they cause harm to the tank parts such as rubber seals and flappers when used in the long run. Using mild detergents during cleaning is safer and more effective than using high-risk chemicals.

8. Contamination dumping tanks carry an inability to manage highly mineralized water.
Reality: This is due to mineral deposits, which modern flush tanks do not have to deal with due to the anti-scaling properties inherent in most new flush tanks or in case they interact with hard water, the parts used are resistant to hard water. Problems in this regard can be avoided through routine cleaning and descaling of a machine.

9. Leaks Are Always Visible
Reality: Most of the leaks in the water tank occur very silently like the water seeping out of the flapper or overflowing from the tube. Another practical method of determining hidden leaks is putting some food colour in the tank stroking some on the bowl and observing if the two mix.

10. Most of the time, only the professionals should be in a position to fix the flush tank-related problems.
Reality: Most problems like a chipped flapper or a floated float can be solved with even a laid man’s approach to a few available tools. But when it comes to great assignments, it is better to seek professional assistance.

11. It is significant to point out that flush tanks are a thing of past technologies.
Reality: The concept of Flush tanks remains relevant due to advancements such as; dual-flush systems, water-saving capability, touchless flush, and smart tank connectivity.

12.  All Flush Tanks Are the Same
Reality: Flush tanks can come in all different shapes and sizes of different materials, with different capacities and even different features. With concealed and wall-mounted tanks as well as high-efficiency and smart options, the market offers all what a variety of needs a consumer may have.
