Drain (to the sewer)

The design of the outlet pipe of the toilet bowl. It determines, in particular, the features of its installation. To date, there are such options:

Horizontal. In such toilets, the outlet pipe is located at the back of the bowl and is oriented horizontally backwards. This is one of the most common types in Europe and the post-Soviet space - it is due to the fact that sewer pipes in these countries are drawn along the floors, and the pipe in the bathroom is usually located under the wall, behind the toilet.

Oblique. In fact - a kind of horizontal release (see above), in which the outlet pipe is not strictly horizontal, but at an angle (usually 30° or 45°). It will be useful in the case that the sewer pipe is low, near the floor.

Vertical. As the name suggests, in these toilets the output is directed vertically down. They are mainly used in the United States and other American countries, where in the construction of communications, e.g. sewerage, conducted under the floor (ceiling) without taking into account the partitions - as a result, the toilet can be placed directly above the pipe. This layout is also found in the post-Soviet space, in particular in office and production premises, as well as in residential buildings on individual projects.

Universal. The universal release design allows it...to be connected to one of the three above options, depending on the specific need. Most often, the output of such toilets is hidden inside, and its own nozzle is absent; for connection selected separate pipe of the desired shape, it can go vertically, horizontally or at an angle.

It should be noted that it is theoretically possible to install a toilet with horizontal release in the bathroom under the vertical, and vice versa - but in practice, this is very difficult and actually requires the reconstruction of the toilet. And therefore, before choosing a toilet, you must clarify the design of sewer pipes in your bathroom and the most suitable type of outlet.

Bowl

Funnel. The bowl of such a toilet bowl is a funnel with approximately the same tilt angle on all sides and a siphon hole in the middle. The advantages of this design are a minimum of unpleasant odors, economy and the fact that the use of the brush is extremely rare: solid waste is almost immediately hidden under the water in the openings of the siphon, not hanging outside and does not require significant water flushing. The main disadvantage of the funnel is spray; however, many manufacturers use design solutions to minimize this inconvenience.

Visor. This construction is similar to the funnel (see above), but the slope of the bowl walls is uneven - the back wall may have a greater slope than the front, or vice versa. The main advantage of visor toilets is the absence of spray in combination with economy and minimum unpleasant odors. At the same time, solid waste can be trapped on the bowl wall, which will require slightly more water consumption and more frequent use of the brush than the funnels.

Dish. The bowl of this type is equipped with a shelf, usually located behind the opening of the siphon. This ensures that there is no splash; moreover, unlike all other types, the waste does not fall into the siphon until it is washed off, but is on the shelf - this makes it possible to determine their condition, which is important for medical purposes. A...t the same time, dish bowls are characterized by strong odors, and solid waste can stay there, which requires frequent use of brush and increases water consumption. In addition, a certain amount of water is constantly on the shelf, which may lead to the appearance of aesthetic divorces. As a result, this design is considered outdated and rare.

Bowl shape

The overall shape of the toilet bowl.

The choice of this parameter largely depends on the aesthetic preferences of the user and the overall design of the bathroom; however, the shape of the bowl is quite practical. So, in our time, the most common is semicircular models, where the rear edge of the bowl is made straight, and the rest - rounded (oval, egg-like, etc.). This shape not only looks good - it is convenient to sit on, and the absence of angles (at least in front of the bowl) facilitates cleaning and reduces the risk of hitting the toilet with your foot. In addition, material on such a bowl requires less than a rectangular product of similar dimensions - as a result, semi-circular toilet bowls are relatively inexpensive and light.

The rectangular shape, in turn, gives a larger support area, which is important for users of large physique. However, toilet bowls classical rectangular shape are rare (due to the high cost of production, as well as for some other reasons). Much more common are variations on this topic - the bowls , with bevelled (rounded) corners, as well as , with the front end shaped arc.
