If you are planning a repair in the bathroom or are already doing it, then you must have visited stores and sites of relevant topics in order to find a high-quality toilet. The most popular in recent years have become models that have the "anti-splash" function. But before making a final decision and making a purchase, it is necessary to study the issue in more detail. Indeed, the modern market has offered many models, and not all of them are able to meet the strict requirements of quality and ease of use. In many cases, you should rely on consumer experience.
Varieties of anti-splash
When manufacturers tried to make an anti-splash toilet, they released a model with a horizontal shelf. With regard to damping bursts, this supplement has a role to play. However, the design has some disadvantages. First of all, you can come across a smell. Among other things, to flush it will be necessary to spend more water, and the brush will have to be used in each case. As a result, manufacturers refused such a design, but even today you can find bowls with a shelf on sale, and sometimes in their description you can see a line where the anti-splash function is mentioned.
Another solution to this problem is a funnel-shaped bowl. In this case, the drain hole is located in the center, while there is no smell, the sewage goes into the water. But when the drain and exit points coincide, the strongest surge occurs. This indicates that the design may not work as it should. In this case, the problem can be solved by using another design in the form of a bowl with a slope of the back wall. In this case, the drain hole is located close to the front edge, and the sewage is braked on the rear wall before it enters the drain hole. If you purchase such an anti-splash toilet, you will encounter a drawback that is expressed by the need to use a brush. Thus, the above designs are toilet bowls with systems that do not always meet expectations in terms of comfort and hygiene.
Reviews on choosing a toilet with anti-splash function
If you want to choose a real model of a toilet bowl with anti-splash, you should pay attention to funnel-shaped designs that are most successful in the matter of hygiene. Distinctive features of these options, according to users, are:
- displacement of the drain to the back wall;
- smaller drain diameter compared to the conventional version;
- the drain channel is low, while its contour has a rim;
- the front surface of the bowl goes into a shelf, the last of which is connected to the drain channel.
If you choose the “anti-splash” toilet bowl following the above recommendations, you can provide maximum protection against unwanted splashes. The main quencher in this case is the low water level in the drain, which guarantees less spray. This factor should be evaluated even in the store. However, according to users, this is very difficult.
For reference
Consumers are advised to mentally draw a horizontal line from the lowest point of the outlet to the drain. On this line will be the water in the working product. According to customers, the ideal option is that which differs in the above features, and the water level in it will be the lowest.
Combination of anti-splash with oblique release
If you like toilets with an oblique outlet and anti-splash, then before going to the store you need to pay attention to how the sewer pipe is located in the apartment. This can make a difference when choosing a model. The pipe can be parallel to the floor and exit the wall, exit from the floor at an angle of 45 ° or from the floor vertically. The latter option can be met quite rarely; for such a pipe, it is necessary to choose a toilet model that has a vertical outlet. The most popular option is when the pipe exits the wall and is parallel to the floor. In this case, you can choose a direct release. But when the pipe leaves the floor and is located at an angle of 45 °, then a toilet bowl with an oblique outlet is suitable for it.
Unfortunately, it’s quite difficult to find toilets with a micro-lift and anti-splash, as well as an oblique release. This applies to models of the brand "Sanita". If you are looking for an oblique issue, then you should focus on this manufacturer. In general, with regard to manufacturers, in the market of sanitary equipment today quite often there are toilet bowls of domestic manufacturers and models made in Poland. If you have enough funds, then you can take the opportunity to choose an elite Italian or Spanish plumbing. But if the budget does not allow you to give back an amount that is equal to the cost of a summer vacation, then domestic sanitary ware will be able to satisfy requests. For example, the company Alcor Santek produces anti-splash toilets, reviews of which are often quite positive. They are made of high-quality sanitary ware, complemented by metal valves, which will be ready to last for more than one year.
Solution for a small bathroom
If your apartment or house has the minimum space for a bathroom, then it is best to choose a structure that is mounted not on the floor, but on the wall using a special system. In this case, the flushing tank will be located in the false wall, and the release button will remain outside. The tank is made as compact as possible, it is based on plastic, and it is flat in shape. Such a compact anti-splash toilet bowl will help maintain hygiene on the floor, facilitating tile laying and allowing you to keep the finish pattern.
