American Standard. Twelve stylish new high-efficiency toilets meet the requirements for WaterSense labeling, using 20% less water than standard 1.6-gallon-per-flush models, while offering improved flush performance. The Compact Cadet 3 one-piece toilet (at left) accomplishes this with space-savings by incorporating a Right Height elongated bowl that fits in the same space as a round-front bowl. Its clean look incorporates rolled-edge detail on the top of the tank, and a slow-close seat with the EverClean surface that inhibits the growth of stain- and odor-causing bacteria, mold, and mildew. 800.442.1902. www.americanstandard.com.
Caroma. The Sydney Low Profile high-efficiency toilet (at right) is ideal for installations that demand water conservation and require a shorter toilet due to space restrictions, such as under a counter or grab bar. Measuring 261/2 inches tall, two WaterSense-approved configurations feature a two-button dual flush. Six bowl configurations are available in all. Dual-flush models feature wash-down flushing, a large trapway to help eliminate clogging, and a 12-inch or 10- to 12-inch adjustable rough-in. 800.605.4218. www.caromausa.com.
Kohler. A modern and WaterSense-labeled one-piece toilet is now part of the Fountainhead bathroom collection (at left). The tankless design is achieved by incorporating the maker’s Power Lite technology — a quiet electric pump that is fully enclosed within the bowl, and provides a powerful flush that uses just 1.28 gallons of water. The Fountainhead also features Comfort Height technology, raising the height of the bowl to that of a standard chair to make sitting and standing easier for all users. The heated seat can be set to three temperatures, and an integrated LED night-light completes the package. 800.456.4537. www.kohler.com.
Laufen. The Palomba collection (at right) features two toilets, including a wall-hung unit designed to be space-saving and easy to clean. All of the maker’s wall-hung toilets are installed using a wall carrier and are equipped with dual-flush functions offering 1.6 or 0.8 gallons per flush. The height-adjustable unit can be adjusted to meet ADA guidelines. Different flush actuators and surfaces allow homeowners to emphasize their personal design style. The full Palomba collection also includes eight sinks, a bathtub and bidet, vanities, and shelved cabinets. 866.696.2493. www.laufen.com/usa.
