Have you also encountered this situation: after choosing a toilet in the bathroom store, you will find that you can't install it when you return home to install it; Or after installation, you find that the space has become cramped, and it is inconvenient to move. I believe that all kinds of problems have been experienced by friends who have been renovated.
The toilet is a large bathroom product, whether it is installation or after-sales return is very troublesome, and the purchase is not low, so before purchasing, it is necessary to have an understanding of the basic situation of the toilet, such as material, function, and basic parameters.
The pit distance of the toilet refers to the distance between the wall (finished surface) and the center of the sewage pipe, that is, the distance from the back of the toilet to the bottom of the toilet pipe.
Standard size toilet pit spacing: At present, there are three standard sizes of toilets, namely 30cm, 35cm, and 40cm, among which 30cm and 40cm are the most common and the most used pit spacing sizes. In the bathroom decoration, if the toilet floor sewage pipe can not reach 30cm, 35cm, 40cm, then it is necessary to carry out the transformation design or move the position of the sewage pipe with the help of a shifter, so as to achieve the above three sizes, so that after the purchase of the corresponding pit distance toilet back, the toilet can be ensured to be beautiful and practical installation can be completed. The so-called beautiful and practical toilet installation means that after the toilet is installed, the back is directly against the wall, basically only 1 cm gap is reserved with the wall, and at the same time, it can ensure that the toilet is drained smoothly and will not be blocked.
Non-standard toilet pit spacing: In addition to the three standard sizes above, the original toilet also has two non-standard sizes, namely 295cm and 405cm. However, now these two non-standard sizes are basically gone, and businesses basically do not use such sizes in production, all of which are 30cm, 35cm, and 40cm, mainly to facilitate consumers to buy, and indirectly increase the sales of their own products, after all, no one wants to buy a non-standard size toilet, because it will be very troublesome when you want to change the toilet later.
One of the major concerns when buying a toilet: the usage fee does not cost water. A reliable criterion is to look at the water efficiency label.
The water efficiency label is a conformity mark for the self-declaration and information filing of the enterprise, indicating the water efficiency grade performance of water products. According to the national standard GB25502-2017, the water efficiency level is level 1, which means that the average water consumption of the toilet is less than or equal to 4L; Water efficiency level 2, which means that the average water consumption is less than or equal to 5L.
Common toilet designs have two flush buttons, one large and one small, and different buttons represent different flush volumes. The small button represents a half-flush, and when pressed, only 1 2 or 1 3 of the water in the tank will be discharged, and if you urinate, press the small button is enough. The large button represents full water, and when pressed, the water in the tank will be emptied once for poop flushing. If the two buttons are pressed together, not only will the water in the tank be emptied, but the horsepower will be greater and the momentum will be stronger.
The toilet bowl looks very porcelain, which leads consumers to ignore the parameter of weight. However, no one moves or weighs the normal toilet. Generally speaking, the weight of an ordinary toilet is about 50 kg, while the weight of a toilet is about 100 kg, and the weight of a high-quality toilet can reach more than 120 kg.
The heavier the weight of the toilet, the greater the density, the better the quality, and the stronger the load-bearing capacity. If the quality of the toilet you buy is up to par, it can usually withstand more than 100 kilograms, so you don't have to worry about collapsing the toilet.
Here I would like to remind that some people dislike that the toilet seat is not clean and it is very dangerous to stand on the seat to go to the toilet, which will make the stress point of the entire toilet smaller, so that the load-bearing is concentrated in a very small part, which is easy to cause the toilet to rupture or **.
Splashing your butt in the toilet is an embarrassing problem that I believe everyone has encountered. In fact, this is related to the height of the water seal. The water seal is the water storage area of the toilet cavity, and the diameter of the toilet bowl is 100 mm, and the pipe is 110 mm, and the water seal is used to isolate the odor of the sewer pipe.
According to the regulations, the height of the water seal should reach at least 5 cm. Some high-end brand toilet seals can do 5About 5-6 cm. If the water seal is too low, it is easy to cause odor upwelling and aftertaste in the bathroom; The water seal is too high, and it is easy to splash the buttocks. The appropriate water seal height is between 5-7 cm. Usually the toilet flush outlet is wider and the water seal is smaller; If the flush port is narrow, the water seal is generally higher. Therefore, it is recommended that you choose a toilet with a wide flush spout when buying a toilet.
If the toilet bowl in use is prone to splashing, you can put a paper towel in the water storage area to greatly reduce the splashing of water.
In addition to the shower room and bathroom cabinet, there is not much space reserved for the toilet, so how much space is reserved for the toilet is more appropriate?
The size of the conventional toilet is generally 750px-1250px, the height is generally about 1750px, the length is about 1750px, and the smallest is 1550px, and the toilet drain diameter is usually 750px, 875px, and 1000px. If 1750px*1000px is the size of the floor area of the toilet, then at least 80*128mm of space should be left for placing a toilet, and 80mm is the comfortable size of the stretching feet when the human body squats; 128mm is the minimum size to lean forward when squatting.
The width of the toilet itself is 40 cm, and the left and right sides need to be separated by 10-15 cm when installing, that is, the reserved installation width should reach more than 70 cm, so that squatting will not feel cramped and cramped.
The angle valve should be reserved in the lower left corner of the toilet tank, the width of the toilet is generally 40 cm, then the position of the angle valve is 30 cm to the left of the center point of the pit, and the height is generally about 15 cm of the brick is the most accurate.
In addition, it is best to reserve a switch panel, even if you are currently using a mechanical toilet, also reserve one, so that you can install a smart toilet lid or replace a smart toilet in the future. Contemporary people's toilet habits, mobile phones do not leave their bodies, and a socket is reserved to meet the charging needs of small electrical appliances.
