In Britain, wall-hung toilets are becoming more common. Because the pan hangs from the wall, they are easy to clean.
These toilets have many distinct advantages over conventional toilets, which we will discuss in detail. However, before you rush to buy one, there are many things to consider.
Cleaning accessibility
The wall-hung toilet pan has the obvious advantage that it is several inches above the floor. It is easy to clean under and around it. There are no crevices or crevices for dirt and dust to collect, no sealant to hold it down to the floor that can discolor over time, nor is there any hard-to-reach places.
Wall-mounted toilets often have smooth sides, which are easy to clean. A good quality pan like the Britton Compact wall hung toilet has an antibacterial coating that makes it easy to clean.
Superior Space Use
Wall-hung toilets can save space. They are much smaller than a visible cistern on the pan and take up less space in your bathroom.
Although you must consider the space required to conceal the frame and cistern, clever planning and the use of stud walls mean that wall-mounted toilets can be a great option for small spaces.
It's not only the space they save, but also the mental and physical space. They create the illusion of a larger bathroom by not being on the ground, which allows for less clutter to take up floor space.
Wow-Factor and Style
Although taste is subjective, most people find a floating toilet appealing. Although they are very popular, they are not common enough to be the norm in modern bathrooms. A stylish wall-mounted toilet paired with a stunning bathroom design is always a great combination.
How do Wall-Hung Toilets Work?
A frame is used to support wall-hung toilets. It can be mounted in your wall. This frame is used to mount the wall-hung toilet. It allows the base to hang off the wall and the base can be removed.
How high should a wall-hung toilet be?
Wall-hung toilets can be adjusted in height. Although there is no minimum height you should install your wall-hung toilet, it should be at least high enough for you to use and others who will be using it.
People will sometimes measure the height of their toilet to determine how high to hang it on their wall.
What is the cost of wall-hung toilets?
Wall-mounted toilets were extremely expensive in the past five years. Bathrooms were generally more expensive than wall-mounted toilets, but prices for wall-hung toilets are actually dropping as there is so much choice and availability.
A wall-hung toilet is now as affordable as PS120. A hidden frame and cistern are required to support the toilet. This will vary depending on whether you choose a budget-friendly brand or one that is more expensive. The overall cost of the actual parts will be a bit more than a standard close-coupled toilet but it is still affordable for anyone looking to build a beautiful bathroom that they will be proud to show off for many years.
Remember to account for the additional cost of installation. You will run into problems if you hire a handyman who is a master of all trades or attempt to install it yourself. You should hire a bathroom installer who is experienced in installing wall-hung toilets if you're serious about it. Although it may sound cliché, you always get what you pay.
Problems with Wall-Hung Toilets
Everybody has had to deal with a problem in their toilets at one time or another. You can usually lift the lid off of the cistern to access the internals. How do you access the internals of a wall-hung toilet? To get to the toilet, do you need to take off the tiles?
If this were the case, then we wouldn't recommend them. It is important to have a well-designed bathroom that is easy to maintain. The rectangular flush plate is the solution. These plates are easy to lift and allow you all the access you need to the hidden cistern.
Wall Mounted Toilet Weight Limit
If properly installed, a frame and wall-hung toilet combination can support 200kg (30 stone) of weight. We don't recommend you drop it if you are a tall build. However, in our many years of being a bathroom retailer, we have never seen a wall-hung toilet break off from the wall or pull down the entire wall.
It is important to be selective when choosing a bathroom installer. A skilled plumber will be able to correctly install your toilet, so it can withstand the test of time.
