Hygienic watering can: its application, varieties and installation
It's no secret that the bathroom isalmost the most visited place in the house. Therefore, for a comfortable stay there it is so important to make quality repairs and pick up a comfortable functional plumbing. The best example of such sanitary ware is a sanitary toilet for the toilet.
Types of hygiene watering can
To date, there are severalvarieties of hygiene watering can. Accordingly, each species has its own characteristics, its own merits and demerits. But the important point for each device is to regulate the temperature of the supplied water. Here, savings are not appropriate, and the best option is to purchase a thermostatic water control lever that keeps the temperature constant. It has two levers, with the help of which both the water supply and its temperature parameters are controlled. Let us consider them in more detail.
Toilet with hygienic shower
At such models at once in the complete set with a toilet bowlthere is a hygienic watering can. The construction of this plumbing is quite simple, but it is not cheap. The fact is that if any part breaks down, you will have to change the whole structure with the toilet bowl, since it is impossible to embed these elements separately. In addition, such breakdowns lead to the fact that you have to redo the very system of water pipes.
In order to install such a model, you needdismantle the old toilet bowl and install the chosen technique. Here you need to be prepared for the fact that often there are difficulties with the supply of hot water, i.e. it is necessary to lay an additional part of the pipe, which is attached to the nearest plumbing fixture, for example, to the sink. Water from such structures is fed from below, and the control knob can be on top or side.
Mixer with hygienic watering can
In these models, hygienic watering cansare installed separately. It is worth such a hygienic watering can is inexpensive, but it also has its drawbacks: you need to think ahead of the layout of hot and cold water. This is because for this shower you need a faucet that looks like a bath, but it will be located near the toilet.
This kind of plumbing has its own constructivefeature is the button on the watering can. With its help, the water closes quickly, and you do not need to reach the mixer for this. In this case, do not leave the lever in the open position, since the pressure in the rubber hose can lead to breakthrough of the metal sleeve.
In this model, two types of mixers are installed: the first is simply mounted on the wall, the second is built into a special niche. In the first version, the hygienic watering can is fixed to the wall by a certain holder, and in the second case there is a button for turning off the water.
Toilet bowl and bidet cover
In the first case, water is supplied bya special atomizer or a retractable nozzle. This model is very convenient in small rooms, as it takes up little space. Bidet is equipped with a separate hose through which water is supplied. The disadvantage of such a device is a high price.
Here the hygienic watering can in the cover-bidet is built-inin a seat with a lid. A big plus of such a design - it is universal and suitable for any toilet. There are even electric models, however, without electricity they will not work. Minus is a high price.
Installation of a hygienic shower
Those who independently installed ordinary faucets, will be able to install such plumbing without much difficulty. To do this, you only need the necessary materials and tools.
First, we check the availability of items in the package. The standard package includes:
- watering can for a hygienic shower with a button for turning on and off the water;
- flexible hose;
- mixer;
- wall bracket.
Of course, you can not do without the following tools: a hammer, a screwdriver, a shock drill, a wrench.
In the beginning of work it is necessary to fix the hose correctlysupply water to the watering can, and install rubber seals in the joints. They are necessary so that there will be no leaks. If after assembly the water still leaks, then the gasket is installed incorrectly, or the thread is twisted weakly. You just need to sort through the structure and tighten the thread more tightly. But do not overdo it too - you can break the thread.
The hygienic watering can in the toilet, as alreadymentioned above, is a wall and hidden construction. When you install the first problem does not arise, but when you install the second one has its own nuances. How it is established, we will consider below.

2. The mixer itself is then installed.
3. Then connect the water supply. It is recommended to use copper or polypropylene pipes. After that, the pipes must be hidden.
4. At the last stage, you need to install a lever and a hose with a watering can.
Following these instructions, you do not have to worry about the reliability of the installed structure.
