Bathroom Toilets FAQ's

• Which toilet is best for home use?

  Some of the factors that you need to consider in order to select the most suitable bathroom for your home include the following:

  
  

  1. You may compare flush ratings online

  
  

  Because you'll be using your toilet for at least ten years, it's worth investing ten minutes in research before you make the purchase. By inputting “toilet testing” into a search engine, you may compare independent test results of "flushing performance" across manufacturers and individual toilet models.

  
  

  2. Look into subsidies for high-efficiency models.

  
  

  A toilet accounts for one-third of your household's water use. The EPA awards the WaterSense designation to high-efficiency toilets (HET) that utilise 1.28 gallons or less. These may save up to 4,000 gallons of water per person each year, and some water providers will give you a refund if you install one (check with yours). However, before you buy, look at independent test findings.

  
  

  3. Consider a Wall-Hung Toilet for Easier Cleaning.

  
  

  One-piece toilets are easier to clean because they don't have as many nooks and crannies. However, they cost more and can be harder to install than a two-piece unit because the toilet bowl and tank are combined into one piece. Consider a wall-mounted toilet if you're going for a contemporary look and want genuinely easy cleaning.

  
  

  4. Calculate the rough-in

  
  

  The distance between the wall and the centre of the flange bolts that hold the toilet in place will limit your toilet options. The normal size is twelve inches. However, 10-inch and 14-inch variants are also available. Unless you're renovating considerably, get a toilet with the same rough-in as your present toilet to make installation easier. Take into consideration the thickness of your baseboard as well.

• Are tall or short toilets better?

  Generally, your toilet should allow you to sit and stand comfortably and lay your feet flat on the ground while seated. Toilets usually come in comfort height, regular height and extra tall variants. Your choice will be determined by numerous aspects.

  Standard-height toilets

  Toilets with standard height are 16 inches tall or less, measured from the floor to the seat. This height may be simpler to use than higher toilets for those who are 5 feet 4 inches or less.

  Small children may also benefit more from using a standard toilet suite. When children use toilets that are overly tall, their feet usually hang, and this may cause poor blood circulation, which leads to leg discomfort and foot numbness.

  Standard height toilets may be beneficial for people who have constipation. The best position for bowel evacuation is to squat with the hips below the knees, which is easier to do with a toilet that is closer to the ground.

  Comfort Height toilets

  Comfort height toilets are toilets better suited to those that have mobility difficulties. These toilets are 830mm high from floor to seat and satisfy Australian standards. These toilets are often a better fit for taller folks, elderly adults, and anybody who has difficulty standing from a squat.

  Although compliance is intended for persons with impairments, this does not imply that everyone with a disability must utilise a comfort height toilet. Some individuals may find that a standard-height toilet is more suitable for their needs. In many instances, the optimal course of action is to try on many sizes to decide which feels most comfortable.

• What is better? A 1-piece or 2-piece toilet?

  A two-piece toilet system includes a separate bowl and tank, whereas a one-piece toilet consists of a single unit. There are more distinctions as well. One-piece toilets are often heavier, simpler to clean and provide less place for bacteria to thrive. Because two-piece toilets have a detachable tank and toilet bowl, they are more adaptable to individual style and height preferences.

  
  

  Both types may incorporate features like bidet attachments or low-flow energy efficiency. Additionally, both can be shaped in the typical styles, which are slightly elongated and round.

  
  

  Pros and Cons

  
  

  One piece toilets

  
  

  Pros: Superior durability; Easier maintenance; A more elegant appearance.

  Cons: Less durable (more prone to breakdown); More complicated installation; Greater possibility of leaking; Lower quality appearance.

• What is a comfortable height toilet?

  The comfort height toilet is equivalent in height to a normal chair. With a height of about 830mm, and about 440mm from the floor to the toilet seat, this style of toilet is ideal for the elderly or taller people.
