The dual flush toilet system, due to its ability to save up to 67% of water usage, has been promoted by the Australian Government under its Target 155 campaign.[5] Dual flush toilet suites started out with a 9/4.5L flush, however, innovations from Caroma, Australia's leading bathroom brand, have brought that down to 4.5/3L flush, achieving a WELS rating of 4 and 5 stars in Australia.

Australian governments are encouraging the replacement of old single flush toilets with more water efficient toilets through toilet rebates.[6] For dual flush toilets, with a star rating of 4 or higher, owners may be able to qualify to claim a rebate from the State Government in Victoria,[7] New South Wales or South Australia. Sydney Water’s rebate program ended on 30th June 2011.
