System and method for a low flush toilet system

A toilet comprising:

• a toilet bowl;
• and
• a tank system attached to the toilet bowl, the tank system comprises:
• a gravity tank configured to contain water at atmospheric pressure;
• a rigid pressurized tank positioned within the gravity tank and configured to contain water at a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure;
• a piston assembly positioned below the rigid pressurized tank and configured to open and close the rigid pressurized tank, wherein the gravity tank is configured to channel water at atmospheric pressure into the toilet bowl at a first velocity and the rigid pressurized tank is configured to channel water at the pressure greater than atmospheric pressure into the toilet bowl at a second velocity, and wherein the second velocity is greater than the first velocity;
• an outlet valve positioned below the piston assembly and configured to selectively channel water from the gravity tank and the pressurized tank into the toilet bowl;
• and
• a solenoid valve positioned within the gravity tank and configured to selectively channel water from the pressurized tank into the piston assembly.

A method of flushing a toilet comprising a toilet bowl and a tank system comprising a gravity tank, a rigid pressurized tank positioned within the gravity tank, an outlet valve positioned within the gravity tank, and a piston assembly attached to the rigid pressurized tank and positioned within the gravity tank, the method comprising:

• opening the outlet valve and channeling water at atmospheric pressure into the toilet bowl, wherein the water at atmospheric pressure has a first velocity within the toilet bowl;
• and
• opening the rigid pressurized tank after a first predetermined amount of time and channeling water at a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure into the toilet bowl, wherein the water at the pressure greater than atmospheric pressure has a second velocity within the toilet bowl greater than the first velocity,
• wherein the tank system further comprises a solenoid valve, and wherein the method further comprises channeling the water at the pressure greater than atmospheric pressure into the piston assembly to open the rigid pressurized tank.
