A dual valve water discharge system is a system through which the user is able to select the volume of water used when flushing liquid waste and/or solid waste. The system features a drain flap with a flow through hole that restricts the flow of water entering a tank drain. The drain flap is covered by a flow rate control flap that is lifted to expose the flow through hole. The drain flap may be lifted as well, in turn lifting the flow rate control flap and allowing unrestricted flow into the tank drain. The flush volume is selected by lifting a flush handle upward or pressing the flush handle downward. The flush handle is connected to a flush lever which is in turn connected to a first cord and a second cord that are able to lift the drain flap and the flow rate control flap.
