How does a Propelair OneThreeFive toilet really work?

Every day, billions of people flush away drinkable water without a second thought. Let’s explore how Propelair toilets work their magic to help us stop this unnecessary waste and conserve one of our most precious resources.

How does a Propelair toilet work?

The Propelair OneThreeFive is engineered for efficiency, combining innovative design with advanced technology.

Its concealed cistern houses an isolated water reservoir, an air-pump, and an electronic control unit, working together to deliver a powerful yet eco-friendly flush.

When the lid is closed, it forms a seal that allows a quick flush by channelling air to create a high-velocity jet. The initial 250ml water flush washes the pan, while the air jet effectively removes waste.

Thanks to the sealed lid, odours, germs, and any waste material remain contained, ensuring a hygienic environment and eliminating the bacterial sneeze effect.

After the flush, the remaining 1.1L water fills the water trap, preparing the toilet for the next use in just 13 seconds—making it perfect for high-traffic areas.

This quick and efficient process sets the Propelair OneThreeFive apart, offering significant water savings while promoting exceptional hygiene standards.


Less is better

Less water. Less cost. Less carbon. More benefits. Beyond the clear environmental and cost savings, reduced water usage eases strain on plumbing, lowering wear and tear on pipes and sewage systems. This means fewer leaks, blockages, and maintenance issues, extending the life of your building’s infrastructure.

A quicker, more efficient flush improves user experience by reducing queuing times in busy environments like retail, commercial, and public venues. Its effective design also removes 99.9% of contaminants, lowering hygiene risks for the next user.

Implementing low-flush toilets boosts a company’s brand image and sustainability status. It showcases a commitment to innovation, making businesses appear forward-thinking and responsible to both customers and employees while enhancing green building credentials.

Resilience in Crisis: In areas facing water restrictions, low-flush toilets like Propelair’s OneThreeFive keep facilities running smoothly. They also enhance backup water systems. A 10,000L septic tank holds waste from about 1,000 flushes with a standard 9L toilet, but with Propelair, it can handle up to 5,000 flushes. Similarly, a 10,000L backup water system can support 1,000 standard toilet flushes, but with Propelair, it manages around 6,500 flushes.

Lastly, in some regions, installing water-efficient fixtures can qualify for tax credits, rebates, and financial incentives. Staying ahead of regulations ensures companies can adapt to future legislation without costly retrofits.
