Bidet dimensions: what are the dimensions of the bidet, what should be taken into account before installation

For many, renovation is a real headache. And if even with self-installation of plumbing, then even more so. A lot of questions immediately arise, for example: "What should be the distance between the bidet and the toilet?" or: "What type of mount should I choose for the device?" However, all this can be understood, the main thing is to arm yourself with information.

What are the sizes of the bidet

If the area of ​​the room allows, then the installation of an additional system is more than desirable. As a rule, the style and appearance of the bidet is determined by the already chosen toilet bowl, because these structures are inextricably linked, and, rather, act as one set. In addition, both suspended and floor models practically do not differ in size.

Usually, stores have a fairly wide range of various products that meet any needs and budget. Therefore, in order to foresee in advance all the agony of choice, it is first better to measure the dimensions of the room and draw up a diagram of the situation.

Only in this case, you will roughly understand what dimensions you are interested in, which means that you will not waste time and effort on considering unsuitable devices.

The standard size range for a bidet most often fits into the following ranges (in millimeters):

• width - 350–435;
• height - 300-500;
• the depth of the bowl is 400–650.

It is almost impossible to find other dimensions. Therefore, when planning, you need to build on this data.

In addition, the distance from the ablution device to the toilet is also considered important. It is believed that the best length will be 25-30 cm. Moreover, putting them closer or further from each other is strongly discouraged. In the first case, it will be very cramped and uncomfortable, and in the second, it will be inconvenient in the process.

Reference! If you want to learn more about specific dimensional units and locations, see GOST 26901-86, which contains information on technical conditions.

What to do in cases when the room does not at all allow the installation of such a number of structures? For small rooms, there is also a great option - a shower toilet. Such plumbing can be implemented in different ways. For example, special bidetkas built into the bowl and sliding out when you press a special button or a seat with a shower tap. Moreover, this system is not much different from the size of ordinary plumbing.

Things to Consider Before Installing a Bidet

In addition to the fact that the bidet should be in close proximity to the toilet, there are several other requirements that you need to be aware of before installing and when planning. First, it must be borne in mind that for a comfortable bath, you will need not only cold, but also hot water. To do this, it is worth taking care that it is possible to connect the device both to the sewage system to drain the liquid and to the water supply system.

Secondly, the free distance in front of the bidet should be at least 70–100 cm (for a toilet - 60–80 cm). Otherwise, you will experience inconvenience and, most likely, even decide to dismantle it.

Thirdly, if you decide to purchase an electrical device, then you need to take care of finding a suitable waterproof outlet nearby.

By the way, buying this option assumes maximum comfort and is definitely worth the money. So, extremely useful options are added to your use: system control over the temperature of water and air, self-cleaning (the ability use of special tanks for a disinfectant solution or a disinfecting ultraviolet lamp), a hairdryer, a heated seat and others.

Remember: the main thing is that the technique meets all your expectations and gives you comfort. Therefore, you need to pay attention not only to the design solution and functionality, but also to such parameters as the size of the room and all structures planned for installation.
