How to discharge the sewage in your bathroom: floor drainage, wall drainage and the same floor drainage?
The floor drain means that the sewage outlet is on the ground, the wall drain means that the sewage outlet is on the wall, and the drainage on the same floor means that the floor of the bathroom is lowered by 300-350mm, so that the position of the sewer pipe can be conveniently arranged. Floor drain and drainage on the same floor can choose floor drain toilet, while wall drain requires wall drain toilet. At present, most houses are underground.
Several dimensions to pay attention to
Pit spacing: Pit spacing refers to the distance from the center of the toilet sewage outlet to the wall/floor, which is generally 305mm and 400mm, and the wall row is185 mm. ..
Installation reserved size: the minimum clear width of the toilet should not be less than 850mm, and it should be symmetrical around the sewage pipe; The minimum front and rear clear size should not be less than1100 mm. If the front and rear size is less than 1200mm, it is strongly recommended that you choose a toilet with a length less than 700mm when purchasing, otherwise the use space will be very cramped in the future.
Reserve a power supply at a height of 350-400mm from the ground next to the toilet, and it will be very convenient to install a smart toilet cover in the future.
Ps: You need to bring your own tape measure. In addition to measuring the size of your home, you need to go to the market to measure the size of the toilet, because the size on the toilet label in most markets is wrong.
Main functions of intelligent toilet:

Things you must know before buying.
What kinds of smart toilets are there?
Common smart toilets in the market are divided into two categories, one is an integrated smart toilet, and the other is a smart toilet cover installed on a common toilet. The main difference between the two is the appearance and function, but the price difference is very big, and the highest price difference can reach 10 times. Therefore, we suggest that if there is no special requirement for design aesthetics, buying a smart toilet seat is the best choice.
What's the difference between an integrated smart toilet and a smart toilet cover?
The main features of the integrated intelligent toilet are beautiful appearance and overall design. The disadvantage is that if it is to be replaced, the whole toilet needs to be replaced. The main advantages of intelligent toilet cover are convenient installation, easy installation or replacement, wide selection and all price segments.
Although the price of integrated smart toilet is very expensive, it is not necessarily good, because traditional toilet manufacturers are all in the ceramic industry, and the core technology of smart toilet is the manufacture of electronic components, so this is two industries for traditional toilet manufacturers, and it is rare for enterprises that can make ceramics and electronic components at the same time. Therefore, in order to meet the market demand, various traditional toilet manufacturers can only manufacture smart toilets through acquisition, cooperation and OEM. For example, Kohler bought Novida from South Korea and Ina bought American Standard.
Be prepared for the price of psychological expectation.
For ordinary families, the appropriate price of an integrated smart toilet should be 6000- 15000 yuan; Smart toilet cover 1500-4000 yuan should be more reasonable. In this price range, you can basically buy most products with perfect functions and guaranteed brands.
Pay attention when buying.
Selection of heating mode
There are three common heating methods in the market: regenerative heating, that is, bringing a large water tank to keep warm and flush by heating the water in the water tank, which has many disadvantages. For example, the time for hot water to come out is generally only 15-30 seconds. It takes a lot of electricity to heat or keep warm all the time, and if the water in the water tank is not used for a long time, it will easily cause secondary pollution. Try not to choose it. The quick-heating type has a small water tank, and the water is heated by the quick-heating device, and the water outlet time is unlimited and constant; Instant heating, direct heating, constant temperature and constant hot water output, so instant heating is strongly recommended, because instant heating not only has no protruding water tank, but also has unlimited hot water output time, which is more stable, and more importantly, it will not cause secondary pollution because the water in the water tank is not used for a long time. However, it should be noted that the instant heating type generally needs to be equipped with or built-in water filter for flushing because it is directly connected to the water source, and it should be replaced once every six months to one year, so that the life of the machine is longer and the flushing is cleaner.
Safety and reliability are particularly important!
Smart toilets must be more cautious than horse barrels. Why? Because the toilet is not good, the worst thing is that it is not very clean, but the smart toilet cover is a product related to water and electricity, which means safety! So the most important thing is to show you which brands are reliable and easy to use, and other brands don't have to be considered at all. You know, European and American countries do not have the habit of using smart toilets. This thing is popular in Japan, South Korea, including China, so the smart toilets of European and American bathroom brands are almost not really produced by themselves.
The first brand must be TOTO, because it invented the washcoat (only TOTO's toilet cover is called washcoat, but it has almost become synonymous with smart toilet covers in recent years). TOTO is one of the few enterprises that can independently produce both ceramics and electronic components. The overall price is on the high side, the smart toilet cover is basically 3000-7000 yuan, and the integrated smart toilet is basically 15000-30000 yuan.
The second brand is Kohler, but Kohler only recommends the intelligent integrated toilet, not the toilet cover, because the technology of his toilet cover is from Novelta, South Korea, which is lower than TOTO's, but the price is similar to TOTO's, so it is cost-effective, but Kohler does a good job on the toilet cover, so if you like Kohler's brand and want to use the smart toilet cover, try to buy one.
The third brand, Panasonic. Everyone knows that Panasonic is a world-class enterprise that makes electronic products, so the smart toilet seat is its own technology, but because it only makes electronics, it can only buy its toilet seat, not the toilet seat, and the toilets it makes are almost all acrylic, because it can't make ceramics.
The fourth brand, Convenient Bao (BJB), is a domestic boutique. In this survey, it gave us a surprise. Focus on making toilet lids for many years, the quality is excellent, dare to directly challenge TOTO, and can get rid of other domestic brands for several streets, so the quality and safety are absolutely reliable. Secondly, it is widely used, almost all toilets can be installed, and the key price is very cheap. 1200- 1800 yuan can buy almost full-featured toilet seats, which is the king of cost performance.
The fifth brand, American standard, can consider integrating toilets. Because the quality of our own toilet is very good, and the intelligent part is the technology provided by Inai, which is second only to TOTO brand in Japan, it is also very reliable, and the price is about 7000~ 10000 yuan.
skill
Try to choose the function of power outage and flushing, otherwise the power outage will not be needed;
Pay attention to the shape and size of your toilet when buying a toilet seat. If the toilet is irregular, such as square, or the water tank is curved, it will be less to match the appropriate smart toilet cover. There is also a particularly short toilet, which can hold the toilet seat, but it will protrude a little when installed and make it uncomfortable to sit;
Don't choose those with complicated functions, such as those with wireless network and remote control, who can play games and listen to music. These are all flashy, but the price is much more expensive. There are even news reports that the toilet with wireless function was attacked by hackers and kept flushing! !
Remember to leave a power socket behind the toilet.
