Advantages and disadvantages of united bathrooms

The advantages of combining bath with toilet are obvious and consist in the following.

1. Useful area significantly increases due to the "dead" zones not used earlier.
2. New opportunities appear to accommodate sanitary ware. If desired, new household appliances and plumbing for the toilet will be installed (see below), which there was no place for reconstruction (shower, bidet, extra sink, washing machine).
3. After disassembling the overlap of the plumbing block, the height of the ceilings will increase. This will facilitate the installation of the shower.
4. The opportunity is given for the embodiment of various design solutions.

The disadvantages of the association is also worth mentioning:

• there is a need for documentation;
• it is necessary to complete the reconstruction of the power supply, water supply and sewage;
• it is required to perform a large amount of dismantling and construction work;
• there are inconveniences associated with the impossibility of using the premises by two visitors.

Installation of suspended toilet

Suspended toilets are original plumbing for the toilet. The prices of them are higher than on the outdoor models like "compact", but this is compensated by aesthetic advantage.
For installation, the next set of tools and devices will be required:

• shock drill (perforator) with a set of drills;
• hammer;
• horn keys;
• roulette;
• construction level;
• rubber cuff;
• silicone.

The technology of mounting the suspension toilet suggests the following procedure.

1. The body installation height is determined: it should take a position convenient for everyone living in the house. Typically, the distance between the seat and the floor is 40 cm.
2. In accordance with the instruction attached to the design assembled by the manufacturer in the form of a rigid metal frame (installation), marks for holes for anchor screws are applied to the wall at the installation site.
3. Installation set and fixed by screws. The correctness of its position is controlled by the level.
4. If you need to adjust the position of installing the suspended toilet with the reinforcement relative to the wall in the mounting places, metal washers of the desired thickness are installed.
5. The drain hole of the toilet is connected to the sewer with a flexible rubber cuff.
6. The docking points of the cuff with a pipe and a drain hole of the toilet bowl are sealed with silicone.
7. The tight tube to the tank is supplied with water.
8. Frame installation is closed twin sheets of plasterboard, which subsequently is lined with ceramic tiles. The water shutter button is installed outside.

Installation of the outdoor toilet type "Compact"

There are several ways to install the toilet bowl of this type.

1. On a wooden basis: For this, the board is necessary to pre-mount the board, discharged in the form of the bowl of the toilet, taking into account the reserve of 3-5 cm. The board must be made of solid wood treated with antiseptic and water repellent. The toilet is screwed to the board with large screws.
2. With the help of epoxy resin: glue composition is uniformly applied to the floor toilet bowl from the bottom side, after which the toilet is installed in its place. The plumbing device must remain fixed until the epoxy is completely frozen. Additional screw mounting is recommended, for which it follows in advance drilled holes to install plastic fillers.
3. Using anchors: Used in the case of installation of toilet bowl on tile. For the entire length of the anchor bolts, holes are drilled where the anchor is inserted. A layer of silicone is applied onto the leg of the toilet, the toilet is installed in place and fixed with screws. You can use Santechpribor immediately after installation.

Attaching toilet to the sewage and water supply

After installing the toilet, it must be connected to engineering communications to ensure a set of water in the drain tank and draining it into the sewer system. To connect to the sewer tube there are several methods:

• using corrugated sleeves (used to install the toilet at an angle);
• using plastic eccentric (convenient to install a toilet bowl with a displacement relative to the drain sewer hole).

The tightness in the places of a loose fit of the connectors to the pipe is provided by the use of sealant or cement mortar with the addition of "liquid glass".

According to the method of the direction of the yield of the drain hole of the toilet, there are the following types:

• with horizontal release;
• with oblique release;
• with the release of the floor.

It is connected to the toilet water supply with flexible hoses with a metal braid. Tightness is achieved using rubber gasket or fum-ribbon. When tightening the nut, you need to hold your hand inlet valve to prevent its gross.
There are tanks with lower addition and sidelines. It should be provided for the installation of a ball valve to disconnect the water supply to the need to repair the reinforcement of the tank.

Installing water tank

For sale, floor toilets come in disassembled form. After making sure the availability of all necessary rubber pads, proceed to the assembly. The procedure for connecting a tank to the toilet consists of three stages.

2. Tank mount to the toilet body. In places of attachment, rubber gaskets and screws are installed. The lamb nuts are evenly tightened from both sides.
3. Install the tank cover and push-button mechanism.
4. The tightness and correctness of the installation of the entire system by set and shutting the water is checked.

Important: When attaching a tank, the maximum torque should not exceed 3 nm to avoid cracks. To achieve tightness before installing rubber gasket, sealant is applied. The system is not filled with water until its full pouring.

If there is a free space, an additional plumbing is installed for the toilet - bidet. Fastening to the floor and the bidet connection is performed similarly. Water is supplied instead of a tank to the crane of a special design.

How to install a bath

Baths are manufactured from various materials. Distinguish:

• cast iron: well hold warm and serve for a long time, but their main drawback is a big weight;
• metal: poorly hold warm, and the service life is limited due to the thin layer of enamel;
• acrylic: attractive externally, light, but unstable to mechanical damage.

Instructions for installing an acrylic bath

The acrylic bath in the standard embodiment is installed on the frame according to the scheme developed by the manufacturer.
Phased description of the installation process.
