Dish toilet

The plate toilet is a familiar type of sanitary ware for many, where the bowl has a flat bottom. Today, such products are practically not produced, because manufacturers have developed more effective, modern solutions - with direct outlets.

But those few companies, which are engaged in manufacturing, are ready to offer an extensive range using different materials - faience, porcelain, plastic, glass, cast iron, steel. If you're a fan of unique and unusual solutions, at your request can make a toilet bowl, covered with gold.

The main advantages of such sanitary ware include:

• When flushing, no splashing is formed. Actually, because of this feature, many people bypass dozens of stores in search of a plate toilet. Modern options, although equipped with so-called anti-splash systems, the same effect can not be achieved;
• It is possible to examine the waste. Before entering the sewer system, they are delayed on the "plate", which is especially relevant for hospitals;
• Reasonable price. As market analysis shows, such products are sold for a small amount of money.

When buying any product, it is important to study not only its strengths, but also its weaknesses. In our case we are talking about these disadvantages:

• "The "plate" retains dirt, so you can't do without a brush;
• From the bowl there are often smells of waste;
• Water consumption is quite high, that is why it is impossible to call such systems economical;
• Water is formed on the shelf, which leads to the appearance of streaks, rust and other troubles.

Bowl bowls are distinguished by the fact that the drain hole is made with a slight offset forward, and there is a certain depression in the path of water from the drain to the drain.

When flushing, all human waste products, wastes first appear on a plate with a recess, which are removed by a stream of water from the tank.

As practice shows, during the installation of such plumbing requires additional adjustment of the tank to adjust the flow of the fed liquid. If the pressure is too strong, whirls are formed, resulting in the appearance of splashing.

In fact, plate toilets can be divided according to the features of the outlet:

• Vertical;
• Horizontal;
• Oblique (the shelf is located at an angle of 45 degrees).

Your choice depends entirely on the type of water supply and sewer arrangement.

Shelf bowls have three types of drain:

1. Cascade. It allows you to evenly rinse the inside of the bowl.
2. Shower. The flow of water follows the perimeter of the inner space of the bowl, creating a funnel. It effectively flushes out the waste.
3. Sharp discharge. The system involves filling the bowl with water in a large volume, after which the liquid abruptly goes into the sewer. Not the most efficient method, but quite economical in today's variations of bowl toilets.

The shelf is a platform, which is provided by the design of the toilet bowl during its casting. It is positioned horizontally relative to the floor.

It is the shelf leads to the fact that when draining does not form unpleasant splashes. An important nuance is the possibility of not allowing any things to drain into the toilet bowl if they accidentally fall out of your hands, out of your pocket, were thrown by a small child.

Solid molded shelves have an undeniable advantage - there are no joints, seams. Thus, it does not lead to their clogging, contamination, no accumulation of waste.

A popular version of the toilet, which is adapted to most types of sewage outlets in typical apartment buildings.

To connect, it is enough to connect the outlet with a collar, insert it into the pipe and put the toilet bowl itself in its rightful place, fixing it to the floor surface.

Here the installation algorithm is as follows:

• Connect the outlet and the pipe, using a collar;
• If the floor is tiled, under the base put a piece of rubber, linoleum;
• Put the plumbing on the floor, pre-substitute linoleum, trace the contours, make marks on the places of attachment;
• With scissors or a knife, cut appropriate holes;
• Glue the gasket with epoxy glue;
• Secure the toilet with floor dowels;
• Make the final connection of the utilities.

We have figured out that plate toilets are quite an interesting, rational choice in many situations. Not surprisingly, because they remain in demand to this day, despite their low production rates.

1. Prepare for the fact that you will have to visit more than one plumbing store. Small production volumes have led to the fact that not every retail outlet sells such products. But you shouldn't have much trouble finding it.
2. Pay attention to the manufacturers. The best manufacturers of such sanitary ware are recognized companies from Sweden, the Czech Republic, Poland and Bulgaria. Products are of high quality and long service life.
3. Personal preferences. With the current situation with the range, you can safely bring your own preferences in the first place - design, size, height, volume of the tank and so on.
4. Compatibility. Before buying, be sure that the toilet bowl and tank are the same, the type of outlet is similar to your type of sewer.
5. Material. Today the range is extensive, but the main competition is between ceramic, metal and enamelled products. The leader is still ceramic, because in terms of durability they are superior to their counterparts. But again, this is a matter of taste.
6. Appearance. The parameter is also individual. But it is extremely important that appearance does not go to the detriment of practicality.

Once you understand all the nuances of the choice, you can safely go to the plumbing store to buy. Install the disc products is not difficult even without experience and certain skills. But it is still recommended to consult with experts, carefully study the instructions from the manufacturer and strictly follow it.

If the slightest experience in working with plumbing equipment is absent, then do something easier - go to the store where you buy the product. They often offer their services for delivery and installation. This is better than sitting over the manual and not understanding what to what and where to attach.
