In recent years, wall mounted toilets have become a new favorite of bathroom fixtures due to their convenient cleaning, strong applicability, and safety under heavy loads. Subsequently, there is a strong demand for common knowledge in the installation of wall mounted toilets. This article mainly introduces the installation steps, dimensions, height, and pictures of wall hung toilets.
1. Installation steps for wall mounted toilets
The installation steps of wall mounted toilets are actually relatively simple. As long as attention is paid to the treatment of water tanks, water pipes, and protective devices, and follow the steps, there will usually be no significant usage problems. According to the comprehensive information of all parties, the installation process can be divided into the following seven main points:
(1) Adjust the height of the wall mounted toilet water tank;
(2) Fix the water tank bracket and tighten the four screws on the upper and lower legs to ensure that the installation level and verticality meet the standards.
(3) Connect the water pipe, be careful not to use a hose connection, and install the water tank corner valve on the outside of the water tank.
(4) When installing drainage pipes, pay attention to the slope setting of the drainage pipe connecting to the water tank.
(5) Install all protective devices according to the design instructions.
(6) Make fake walls. This step can be divided into three sub steps: first, use light steel keel and moisture-proof gypsum board to create a protective bracket for the decorative material of the water tank, paying attention to flatness and tightness; Then seal the gaps and edges of the bracket with gray bricks, and reinforce and seal with steel wire mesh; Finally, build a 5cm protective wall with red bricks in the gaps and edges of the bracket. At this point, the fabrication of the fake wall has been completed.
(7) Adjust and install the toilet according to the design instructions.
2. Installation dimensions of wall mounted toilets
The installation size of wall mounted toilets is a problem that many homeowners are confused about, after all, there are many styles of wall mounted toilets on the market, and there is no completely unified standard for size.
Generally speaking, the size of a wall mounted toilet should be consistent with the size of a concealed water tank. It is recommended that everyone make a purchase based on the actual situation of the bathroom, preferably by visiting a physical store of local bathroom products.
3. Installation height of wall mounted toilet
The installation height of a wall mounted toilet is equal to the installation height of a water tank. Common types of water tanks are divided into side press and top press. Therefore, the following will introduce the installation height formulas for different types of water tanks.
(1) Side press water tank
To explain it mathematically, assuming the thickness of the decorative panel is X centimeters, the height from the top of the bracket to the adjustable foot base of the bracket is (100+X) centimeters.
(2) Top press water tank
Assuming the thickness of the decorative panel is X centimeters, the height from the top of the bracket to the adjustable foot base of the bracket is (82+X) centimeters.
It is worth noting that the length limit of the adjustable bottom of the general bracket is 20 centimeters, which can be calculated according to the actual situation.
