ABSTRACT:
A water closet flushing system of a type employing a float-controlled valve through which water is supplied to refill the tank after the water in the tank has been dumped into the bowl to flush the bowl. A diverter valve is interposed in the line leading from the ballcock valve through which the tank is refilled and is operable to divert this flow of water under line press to outlets or nozzles disposed around the upper rim of the bowl as soon as the flushing process begins to provide a complete pressurized washing of the bowl. After the tank empties, the diverter valve automatically shifts to a position which directs the water to refill the tank.
