Complicated choice of toilet bowl

Agree, it is not easy to imagine a modern house without such a customary device as a toilet. It should be most comfortable in all respects. After all, it is an indispensable thing that we use every day. Therefore, the choice of the toilet requires a serious approach, especially since we usually buy it not for one year. Today you can buy models of different configurations, colors and shapes. It is important for us to choose a product that will be ergonomic, easy to clean and perfectly fit into the bathroom interior.

Types of toilet bowls

The toilet bowls are divided into hinged and floor-standing. The first are attached to the wall with a special reinforced frame, resting on the floor and walls. Visually it looks like a toilet bowl suspended on a wall. There are some limitations with this fixing method. Since the design must not only keep its weight, but also the weight of the seated person, the maximum additional weight should not exceed 300 kg. These toilet bowls are still not very common in Russia. Such models (and their installation) are obviously more expensive than floor-standing brethren. But if you decide to purchase a hinged structure, you will save a lot on the workspace. It is much easier to take care of such a toilet, because all pipes and valves are mounted in the wall. All the advantages of a beautiful floor tile will be visible to your eye. However, in the neighborhood to this model, expensive sanitary equipment is requested. The choice of a toilet bowl by design depends on the area of your bathroom.

Floor- standing toilet bowls exist on the market for a long time and please a captious buyer with a variety of designs. They differ in the discharge system. There are toilet bowls with tanks of high suspension, compacts, monoblocks.

Compacts are ordinary toilet bowls, known to us from childhood. They are very easy to install, so even non-professionals can install them.

Monoblocks are the toilet bowls that unite the tank and bowl of the toilet bowl into one single whole. Such a system absolutely excludes the possibility of water leakage. However, the candybar has impressive dimensions, so you can put this model only in a fairly spacious bathroom or toilet room.

Fans of retro-style choose toilet bowls with a tank of high suspension. The cost of these designs is slightly higher than the prices of compacts and monoblocks. But they look extraordinarily stylish and elegant in the background of mosaic or expensive ceramic tiles.

According to the type of discharge, the toilet bowls are divided into straight, circular, cascade and shower versions. There are also systems with a siphon, which carry out flushing from above and suck the contents from the bottom.

The choice of a toilet bowl is greatly influenced by the material from which it is made. It can be classic faience, plastic, steel, cast iron, glass, porcelain. Classic toilet bowls made of ceramics have been tested for many years, combining lightness, strength and aesthetic virtues.

The choice of a toilet bowl can also be determined by the principle of the flushing device. Drain into the sewer can be: oblique discharge, horizontal outlet, vertical outlet. Old good toilet (domestic) had an oblique release. A more modern system - toilet bowls with a vertical outlet. This is an excellent choice for small rooms. Toilet bowls with horizontal outlet - the invention of recent years. As a rule, all new buildings are equipped with them.

One of the latest achievements is draining with a dosed amount of water. On the cover of the drain tank are two buttons, when you press one pours a small amount of water, pressing another - more. This system significantly saves water consumption, which is important for modern ecology.
