What are the toilet installation skills and precautions? When choosing a toilet, the color should be consistent with the overall tone of the washbasin and toilet. In addition, the pit distance must be measured accurately during installation, and the error cannot exceed 1 cm, otherwise the installation will not be possible.
Toilet Installation Tips
After choosing the appearance of the toilet you like, you must not be confused by the fancy toilet style. The most important thing is to look at the quality of the toilet. The glaze of the toilet should be clean and smooth without obvious defects. Clear, all kinds of accessories are complete, and the shape is not deformed. In order to save costs, many toilets have no glaze in the return water bend, and some use gaskets with low elasticity and poor sealing performance. Such toilets are prone to scaling and clogging, and are also prone to water leakage. Therefore, when buying, put your hand into the dirty mouth of the toilet and touch it to see if it is smooth.
Judging from the way of flushing water, the toilets on the market can be divided into two types: siphon type and open flush type (that is, direct flush type), but at present the main type is siphon type. The siphon toilet has a siphon effect while flushing water, which can quickly drain the dirt. The diameter of the sewer pipe of the direct flush toilet is large, and the larger dirt is easy to flush down. They have their own advantages and disadvantages, so the actual situation should be considered when purchasing.
Toilet installation steps
To install the toilet, there are several tasks to be done in the early stage. The first is to measure the distance of the sewage pipe, and then choose the most suitable toilet according to the distance. Then, it is necessary to check the level of the sewage pipe and the ground to see if there is mud, sand, and waste paper in the pipe. After the sundries are blocked, it is necessary to determine the center of the sewage pipe, which is also a very important link.
After confirming the sewage center, the next step is to fix the toilet. According to the diagram of the toilet installation method, it is actually very simple to fix the toilet. Align the cross line on the toilet with the sewage outlet on the ground, install the toilet horizontally, and press it firmly The sealing ring is then fixed with glass glue. It should be noted that generally do not use the toilet within 24 hours after fixing. Only in this way can a good fixing effect be guaranteed.
In the toilet installation method, the water tank fittings are very important. Let the water flush the pipe for 3-5 minutes to ensure the cleanliness of the tap water pipe; then install the angle valve and connect the hose, and then connect the hose to the installed water tank fitting inlet valve and press Through the water source. After all the work is completed, the next step is to debug the toilet, check whether there is any problem in the installation of the toilet, whether there is water leakage, etc.
Precautions for toilet installation
1. Before installation, check whether the sewage pipe is blocked by mud, sand, debris, etc., and whether the installation ground is level.
2. Determine the center of the sewage pipe and the center of the toilet sewage outlet and align them, and adjust the wall within the error range.
3. Determine the installation position at the bottom of the toilet. Dry installation: use an electric drill to drill the installation holes, and pre-embed the expansion screws. Wet and dry installation: use an electric drill to drill the installation holes, and pre-embed the expansion screws.
4. Install the sealing ring on the sewage outlet of the toilet, or put a circle of glass glue around the sewage pipe, place the toilet according to the position where the line is taken, and adjust the level.
5. Dry installation: Screw on the screws and seal a circle of white cement around it. Wet installation: adjust and beautify the sealing surface.
6. Install and debug water tank accessories. Depending on the specific situation, some need to do this work first. In addition, some toilets are difficult to debug if abnormalities are found after installation due to the emphasis on beauty (although this is not the case, but it has also been encountered), it is recommended to test with water before installation if possible.
7. Install the toilet cover. According to the specific situation, some things need to be done first.
8. After installation, wait for the white cement or glass glue to solidify before use, usually 24 hours.
