The toilet is the highlight of the decoration, and the toilet is an indispensable sanitary ware for the toilet, so its purchase is also particularly important.
First, let's first understand the types of toilets. Toilets can be divided into split toilets, one-piece toilets, and wall-mounted toilets. The choice can be made according to different spaces and the location of the waterway.
Split toilet
The split toilet is a toilet with a separate water tank and a base. The flushing type is generally used. The water level is high and the impulse is large. It is relatively difficult to block, but the flushing noise is greater than other types of toilets.
Advantages: low price, strong momentum, not easy to block.
Disadvantages: general appearance, large space occupation, high flushing noise, difficult to clean, and risk of water leakage in the water tank.
One-piece toilet
The water tank and the base are integrally fired and cannot be separated separately. Due to the increased firing volume, the molding rate is low, which can only reach 60%-70%, so the price is higher than the split toilet. One-piece toilets generally adopt siphonic launching, with low water level and low flushing noise. There are many styles to meet different decoration styles.
Advantages: diverse styles, easy to clean, low flushing noise.
Disadvantages: The siphon type is relatively water-consuming and easy to block.
Wall-hung toilet
Wall-mounted toilets originated in European countries. They are composed of a concealed water tank and a toilet. A false wall is required behind the wall-mounted toilet, and all pipelines are sealed in the false wall, and the installation cost is relatively high. With the barrier of the wall, the flushing noise will be significantly reduced.
Wall-mounted toilets are most suitable for toilets with wall drainage (the toilet's sewage outlet is on the wall). Some new communities that use wall drainage can be easily installed. If the toilet is ground drainage, the installation is relatively troublesome.
As for the stability, the wall-mounted toilet is stressed by the steel bracket, not the toilet, so as long as the construction is properly done, there is no need to worry. In addition, the in-wall water tank needs to be installed precisely, and it is best to be operated by professional technicians.
Advantages: save space, easy to move, beautiful appearance, low flushing noise.
Disadvantages: expensive, high quality and installation requirements.
How to choose a toilet?
1. Whether the luster of the toilet itself is sufficient, the more luster, the better the compactness. When selecting, you can touch whether the glaze is smooth or not, and check the toilet drain and sewer. If it is rough, it will easily cause blockage in future use.
2. The weight is high. The high-end toilet has a high temperature during firing and achieves a full porcelain effect, so the handle will be very heavy, so when you buy in the store, you can use the water tank cover to weigh the weight, the heavier The better.
3. The good quality of the water fitting will directly determine the service life of the toilet. When selecting, press the listening button to see if the sound is crisp or not. If it is a bit stuck or there is noise, the quality of the water fitting may not be very good.
4. Look at the caliber. Generally speaking, the large-diameter sewage pipe of the toilet should be glazed. Such a toilet is not easy to get dirty, and the toilet has better sewage and anti-clogging effects. Under normal circumstances, it is best to hold a palm.
5. The high-temperature fired toilet has a low water absorption rate, so it is not easy to suck in the sewage to produce peculiar smell. Some low- and medium-grade toilets will give off an unpleasant smell after inhaling the sewage, and water leakage may occur. When buying a toilet, pay attention to tap the toilet with your hand to hear whether the sound is crisp and loud.
6. Toilet flushing is generally straight flush, rotary siphon, whirlpool siphon, and jet siphon. Straight-flush and rotary siphon type have strong sewage discharge power, but the flushing sound is relatively loud; vortex type uses more water and does not save water, but the sound is lower; straight-flush siphon type has the advantages of straight flush and siphon, but the price is not low.
