Can you flush total while water in building is cut off?

Question

Something happened with one of the pipes down stairs at my building and the manager said to hurry up and take a shower because she was going to cut the water off. I just took a serious #2 and wanted to know since she cut the water off, can I still flush the toilet?

Answer 1

usually you can get 1 flush as water is stored in the back of the tank.  If you are lucky you will have a double flush tank and can get 2 flushes!!  

Answer 2

Yes, as long as there is water in the tank you can flush, but only once since the tank won't refill until the water is back on.

Answer 3

HAHAHAHA -- serious #2 -- way too funny. Does it stink?  =) As stated before, one flush is still in the toilet for such an occasion.  

Answer 4

It depends how much water is left in the pipe if not it will just get stuck while flushing.

Answer 5

Yes get a bucket of water from another source and pour it into the toilet repeat as needed
