Woodridge, IL -- With much anticipation, Gerber Plumbing Fixtures LLC debuts the new Viper™ 1.28 High Efficiency Toilet (HET). Pending certification by WaterSense, this two-piece toilet offers exceptional flushing performance coupled with significant water savings.
 
“Water conversation is at the top of Gerber’s priority list when manufacturing new plumbing products, and the Viper 1.28 toilet exceeds our expectations,” said Ron Mudge, marketing manager for Gerber. “The quality of the Viper product is well-known in the plumbing community and we now deliver additional water saving capabilities.”

The Viper toilets are Gerber’s deepest gravity product line possessing exceptional bulk waste removal. The Viper 1.28 has a three-inch flush valve and is available in white and biscuit color options. Additionally, the Viper HET includes powerful front rim jets providing a superior flush utilizing only 1.28 gallons of water. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), using an HET unit (in place of a 1.6 gallon flush toilet) can save a minimum of 20 percent water savings.

Available Summer 2010, the Viper 1.28 is backed by a five-year warranty and is offered in round front, elongated or ADA Elongated bowl options.

In addition to the Viper 1.28, the Viper 1.6 toilet is available in 11 colors. For more information on the new Viper 1.28 toilet, visit www.gerberonline.com or call 866.538.5536.
