Toilet bowls: classification and design features

To date, such a necessary adaptation as a toilet bowl has not yet been applied to the notion of prestige, and it's quite embarrassing to talk about its consumer properties. It is not customary for us to attach special importance to the toilet room. But in many European countries there is a special philosophy of this corner, which under any circumstances should remain clean and comfortable, a place where everyone can remain alone with their thoughts. Whatever the case, the word "comfort" is closely related to the toilet room, given the wide choice that plumbing manufacturers provide to us today.

Despite the great changes, on the way from the "toilet" to today's porcelain and faience delicacies, we are still ascetic about the toilet bowl, which is the main center of the toilet room.As with other sanitary ware, toilet bowls can be divided into two types: floor and hinged.Any of these types can serve as a complete set with a conventional or built-in cistern.The most common combination is considered when the toilet and the tank are two separate elements.But do not forget about the monoblock, where the toilet and the tank I They are easy to install and have a lot of advantages: for example, unlike separate models in monoblocks, the distance from the floor to the lid of the tank is much smaller. However, unlike the same traditional devices, they and are more expensive.

When choosing a floor toilet, you should pay special attention to its height. After all, here it is first of all necessary to think about the convenience of using the highest member of the family. First of all, you should look at the models that best allow you to relax the muscles of the abdomen, waist, pelvis, and legs. There may be such a dilemma: choose a floor or hinged toilet. Here it should be noted that floor models are much easier to mount. But the hinged toilet is good if there is a technological niche in the wall in which you can install the tank. Otherwise, you can not save room space.

The price of toilet models from different manufacturers can be very different. At most, the cost of the toilet bowls depends on their brand, the quality of the material (color, gloss, strength), design, technological and design features. The price of products of Russian and Chinese manufacturers is often Є 50. The most expensive products are produced by such companies as Matteo, Thun, KERAMAG, Mosaik, IDO, NovaTop and KOLO.

Separate attention should be paid to the toilet, made in retro style. Their main distinctive features were elegant shapes, original paintings and brass handles designed for the descent of water. Retrounitaz is primarily an aesthetic and practical device with a nickel-plated flushing valve controlled by a special pedal. Draining in retro models is done in different ways: by the system "pulling on the string", pulling the rod, turning the lever, pressing the button, or on the touch panel.The cost of such retrounitazov, usually from Є 100. Especially impressive prices are different design models, the price which reaches Є 3000. The most popular developers of inexpensive products are domestic manufacturers, but among the manufacturers of special models can be identified companies HERITAGE and TWYFORD.

No less important are also toilets, in which a special emphasis is placed on convenience and safety. These are toilets for people with reduced physical abilities, namely disabled and elderly people. The volume of production of such models is quite small, since it is not in high demand. However, the cost of such toilet bowls is quite high. For example, firm IDO has two models of toilet bowls with folding armrests for the disabled and elderly persons. Their armrests are made of aluminum and are capable of withstanding loads up to 300kg. The toilet bowls of the Trevi series are distinguished by a higher height for people with aching joints. Specialized toilet - adaptation is not from cheap. However, there are alternatives.

For example, there is an option to install special handrails, thanks to which you can change from the stroller to the toilet.

Today in the world there is a huge selection of different types of toilet bowls. Many manufacturers provide a wide range of this element of sanitary ware. It is worth remembering that the toilet is the center of the toilet room. And to take his choice should be with special attention.
