And if that doesn't work have fun opening it up again. |

Toilets on diesel-electric submarines have a version of this with mechanical valves. Known to exist, known to be effective ... also known to demand exacting adherence to the operating procedure, otherwise it all gets rather loud and VERY unpleasant. |

This would be fun. If using one of those transparent toilets
the user could inspect the nature of the clog they created and
watch the whole thing go down, sploot! |

Ah, yes. I've got something like that on my
motoryacht, called a "macerator.". Never had it plug
up; maybe I'm just lucky... |

Mains pressure is high, but the volume of water is
probably not enough to unblock a toilet. The
sure-fire way to unblock a toilet is to empty a bucket
of water into it, all at once, from height. |

What, lucky to have a yacht, or a macerator that's never clogged ? |

I can confirm that the mop-bucket-method as mentioned by [hippo] has never failed me. Instant deblocking with no mess. I pity those who are ignorant of this technique. |
