Types of toilets and which one to choose

How to pick up the toilet

Arriving at the plumbing shop, many people get lost in the selection. Many even complain that it is very bad when a great choice, it is very difficult to decide exactly what to buy and what is suitable. This is particularly true of such a thing as a toilet. So what do you need to know to make the right choice and what are the toilets and how they differ from each other?

In order to properly select the toilet first and foremost need to know exactly how you plan to put it, and in this case will be held the pipe in the bathroom. Let's see what toilets are on what to look for when choosing?

squat toilet

The most common type of toilet is out of the bowl (bottom) toilet tank with accessories and of course the seats. In older models, there is also a separate platform on which stood a tank, but now make a bowl with cast area of ​​the reservoir and thereby relieve the people from unnecessary problems in fastening the tank, reliability and ease of cleaning. Many people know how easy it was to break off the so-called mounting ears to the site and how to not just replace it. And the view of the toilet she is very spoiled... There are also toilets, which drained the cup with a tank - one-piece toilets.

Interesting design course, but still more often those in which there is a separate tank. So, what are all these models differ in terms of installation and ease of use??? Firstly there are various options for the location of the issue, namely, horizontal, vertical and oblique. Moreover oblique may have a different angle of inclination of the exhaust pipe. Therefore, before going to the store you need to understand how it is draining your system. Because if the sewage goes to the floor. It is necessary to take a toilet bowl with vertical outlet or one which is provided with an adapter to connect the sewage system in the floor. If the output is not in the floor and behind the toilet, and right in the riser, I advise you to consider buying the toilet not with an oblique release and horizontal. Let me explain why. If you suddenly buy a toilet bowl with an oblique issue and it does not fit exactly in exactly under your connection, or you will have to alter the riser, it is not always possible, or put the corrugation or adapter and then the toilet will move away from the wall and will occupy more space (which you do you want?). I advise you to choose a bowl with horizontal outflow, because the connection is more versatile. Will explain. Horizontal outlet is recessed under the tank at 10-15 cm and therefore putting a plastic cam (Options eccentrics for sale a great variety and you can easily will pick yourself what you need), you get the toilet with the necessary inclination and release height, standing next to the wall, and it is a huge plus if a small bathroom size. Yes, and look so much better toilet Buda standing in the middle, in which between the tank and the wall 10 cm eaten unnecessary space. By the way, almost all the European manufacturers of toilet seats are made with horizontal outlet, think about why it is done and it not better to follow their experience ???

I also want to pay attention to the shape of the toilet legs. If the stand is open and can be seen all the twists, folds the pipe, then you will have to clean all these folds flush out and spend a lot of time. More expensive European manufacturers are making a closed foot, in which all the curves are hidden and wash away the dirt with these models much easier and faster. Also pay attention to the toilets, which are fully and bowl and tank adjacent to the wall (models with a full abutment), they look very nice, but if you have sex tube goes to the bathroom or you're doing on the bottom of a box of tiles under the pipe, then this toilet you just will do. So pay attention to it!!!

toilet tank may also be different. It can stand on the scale, be suspended from the wall of the bowl or even be near the ceiling. The water supply is better to choose lower because with such traverse less heard as typed water. Volume tank most 6 liters, but may vary from the shape of the tank may also be varied by adjusting the valves. Drain mechanism may be single - drain the water once the whole amount. With the start-stop system, in which the first press begins to drain water, and the second stop and its quantity adjusted manually poured. Double, wherein in the reservoir are two buttons, one of which merges the entire tank, and the second half only. The latter can really save you water, if installed counters.

hanging toilet

Very interesting and increasingly demanded kind of toilet. Facilitates cleaning of rooms and looks very nice and easy. And, at the moment the company manufacturers make toilets series, in which there are both outdoor and suspended toilets, convenient is the fact that if you liked the shape of the product, you can choose how to put it in your bathroom. Either it will be a floor or hanging version.

What is the difference between false models. Firstly, there is no expansion tank, i.e. not absent, and is on install and hidden in the wall. No fastening to the floor and there is no contact with the floor, so you need only wipe the floor beneath him, and not to climb around it with a rag.

If you're tired of one toilet, then you can take it off and hang it in his place another without rewriting the entire wall. For installations are universal and fit any model. But the most important thing is. That it is possible to hide all unnecessary pipes for falshstenoy and make the bathroom easier and devoid of all the charms of contemplation of various communications, walking on the wall and bottom of the... question is often asked whether it is possible to stand on the suspension toilet bowl? Did he survive? In fact, the installation of stand 400, and the toilet seat 150 kg of weight, but think about what you need to get up on the toilet??? And if you get up on the floor model ???

Adjacent outdoor toilet

Very similar to the cup by a simple squat toilet, which cut off the tank and ground. In fact, this model as addl toilet is placed to drain the entire installation and fixtures it is in the wall. Such variations are often placed in public places because they are not suspended, and on the floor. For installation of these models can not be installed, you just built tank. Housing believe such a thing is not necessary, because lost all charm and installation of suspended models ...

As for antivsplesk system. How often I hear from buyers words that such an expensive toilet bowl and is made so that it splashes... Actually antivsplesk system remained almost exclusively on Russian models. It looks very simple, the hole with water in the bowl is displaced in the front and rear is made either slide or general area. Justified only consider the purchase of a toilet bowl with a platform if your cat is accustomed to go to him. If this is not the case, think about whether you want each time to wash the bowl Yorshik? That's clever Europeans do bowls of this form. Why? Yes, everything is simple, people are saving their time. So what do they do with a splash, you ask... It's just thrown into the toilet a small piece of toilet paper before you sit on it and everything. Very simple. For you a few times rarely have to wash it.

Toilet with bidet functions

Many people came from Turkey or Egypt, come to the store and ask where and how you can buy a toilet with bidet functions??? Actually put a toilet in our climatic conditions is not recommended. Because, in such systems can not accommodate the mixer and fed water coming from the cold pipe. In the Urals, this hygienic procedure is converted to hardening, leading to unpleasant diseases... If you want to have stood the toilet and was opportunity to use it as a bidet I advise you to consider the installation of a special basin mixer with hygienic watering can (be sure to read article about the choice of mixer). It is very convenient easy-to-use (and water temperature, you can choose the most appropriate).

In general, if you are faced with the problem of choosing themselves can not decide what to buy toilet. Please contact me on the forum in the toilet section. We will try to solve your problem together and choose the most suitable model.

I used to be a toilet floor, he is now set installation and hanging toilet. Do you know how much space to add visual!? I would recommend hanging toilet.
