Abstract: A pressurized tank assembly and method. The pressurized tank assembly may include a first siphon tank, a second siphon tank, an inlet assembly, and a discharge assembly. The first tank and second tank may be arranged vertically within the base of the toilet. The first tank and the second tank may be arranged with endcaps located at the top of each tank. The first tank and the second tank may include siphon tubes to assist in delivering fluid flow from the inlet assembly to the discharge assembly.
