What is a toilet? This product is characterized by ease of use, ease of cleaning, economy and a beautiful appearance.
They sell plumbing both shops and sites. I prefer the first option, as it allows you to carefully examine before buying. The store is more expensive, but you should not save on this.
Let's imagine that you are in a plumbing store. You are interested in what to look for when choosing a toilet. I’ll tell you about this.
- Decide on a model. Be sure to sit down on the toilet to see if the width, height and other parameters meet the requirements and biological characteristics.
- Bowl shape. The element on which hygiene of the drain depends. The bowl may be dish-shaped, visor or funnel-shaped. To make it easier to decide, I will consider all the options.
- Dish bowl. People who lived in the union saw such a toilet. There is a horizontal shelf inside. Thanks to the element, the product does not splatter. On this, the virtues of the bowl end. The toilet needs constant cleaning, and the accumulation of oxen leads to the appearance of rusty stains, which are not easy to deal with.
- Visor. Versatile and comfortable bowl. Such a toilet does not need to be cleaned after each use. It does not splash when rinsing. Due to the shape of the visor-type bowl, the amount of odors is reduced. This is important, especially if you intend to install next to bath.
- Funnel bowl. It is characterized by profitability and hygiene. A toilet bowl with such a bowl is rarely cleaned. The only drawback is the large amount of spray.
- Tank. Pay attention to the tank and drain mechanism during selection. Convenience in use and service life depend on these elements.
- Material. No less important is the material from which the toilet is made. They recommend buying a product from porcelain or earthenware. These materials are wear resistant and durable.
- Lid mount. Must be durable and metallic. Otherwise, the lid will loosen over time.
- Color. Manufacturers offer toilets in various colors. Which option to give preference is up to you. The main thing is quality coverage.
A variety of toilets, which differ from each other in design and technical characteristics, does not allow people to quickly choose. When a person enters a plumbing salon, he is lost and makes the wrong choice.
Expert Advice
To minimize the likelihood of a problem, I recommend buying plumbing in specialized stores and prefer models from reliable manufacturers.
Choose a toilet to flush well
The housing has a toilet room, the main element of which is the toilet. Each has its own device selection criteria. Some focus on price, while for others, the aesthetic component is important.
Some first determine the price, and then in the selected price corridor they look for a suitable model that will fit into the interior and satisfy the requirements.
- Toilet height. An important characteristic. The parameter determines how comfortable it is to sit on it. To make sure that the height is optimal, you can experimentally. Sit in the toilet.
- Bowl shape. There are three types of bowls, each of which has pros and cons. We talked about them earlier and it makes no sense to repeat ourselves.
- Model view. They produce compacts, monoblocks and models with separated bowls and drain tanks. Compact, like a monoblock, is characterized by small dimensions. The most convenient are considered products of a separate type. They save space and minimize noise. If you want to buy a good flushing toilet, take a closer look at separate models.
- Drain mechanism. Previously, manufacturers completed the product with leverage. Today, this element has given way to a button, which made using the toilet comfortable.
- Two-Key Models. Pressing one key empties the drain tank by half. If a thorough drain is needed, the second button is pressed. The benefit is obvious. The water quality in the country is extremely low. Therefore, it is not recommended to purchase a toilet bowl with a high-quality flush system. Otherwise, you will have to periodically restore the mechanism.
- Material. Manufacturers make bowls and tanks from various materials. Among them are porcelain, cast iron, plastic, wood and gilding. There are many options, but ceramics are more practical and safer for health.
- Manufacturing firm. I advise you to immediately determine the brand and then study the range. So cut off many inappropriate options. The best quality are the toilet bowls made in Germany, France or Italy. Czech, Slovenian, Polish and domestic companies are not much inferior.

How to clean the toilet from rust
Hanging containers with tablets or gel are sold. These products prevent the pollution of plumbing and aromatize the toilet room. If you clean the toilet every day with brushes or brushes with detergents, this will prevent the appearance of rusty drips and heavy dirt. As a result, the product will retain its aesthetic appearance for longer.
To prevent the drain from clogging, flush the sewer several times a month with hot water. I don’t advise pouring boiling water into the plumbing, since the material from which it is made may fade or crack.
I do not recommend pouring caustic liquids and solvents into the toilet. They will not cause harm to the surface, but if they find themselves in a sewer that is unstable to hostile environment, they will damage it.
If traces of rust appear on the toilet, a solution prepared from water will help to remove them. vinegar. As for mild pollution, soda helps fight them.
If the plumbing is dirty, I recommend washing it with special products with hydrochloric acid. Sinks and bathtubs are not allowed to be washed with these products, since acid damages both enamel and metal base.
To clean the sewer, use hot water and a special tool such as "Mole". If the blockage is of mechanical origin, a cable will come to the rescue. In extreme cases, you have to disassemble the connection.
