Toilet cleaning

Toilet cleaning
  • When it comes to toilet cleaning, research* done by Harpic shows that 7 out of 10 people flush a clean toilet before squirting a cleaning liquid around the rim. Do you do this too? It’s better for the environment if you don’t – it’s a waste of water!
  • Harpic and Easy-off Bang Stain & Drain are so powerful there is no need to flush the toilet before cleaning, to get their best cleaning results.
  • We’ve calculated that if you flush the toilet unnecessarily before cleaning, it wastes on average 1375L of water a year. [ / bold ]Here’s our calculation:
    • Each normal flush of a European toilet uses 6 litres of water
    • Average of 1.47 toilets per home
    • Average 3 cleans per week
  • Based on the above, that amounts to 230 unnecessary, wasted flushes per year!
