Installation wall hung toilet

Wall hung toilet

Consumers are increasingly choosing wall-hung toilets for bathroom equipment. Of course, installing a wall-mounted toilet is a bit more complicated than installing a conventional floor-standing toilet in an apartment.

Before you install a wall-mounted toilet with your own hands, it is advisable to have an idea about its design.

At the heart of the whole structure is a rigid steel frame supplied by the manufacturer with a special height adjustment device. This frame is securely fastened to the floor and to a wall built of concrete or solid brick. Such equipment cannot be attached to drywall false walls. The toilet bowl is suspended from a steel frame on special pins. The toilet bowl is the visible part of the entire structure after installation.

Built-in cisterns for wall-hung toilets differ from ordinary ones in that they are made not of ceramics, but of plastic. Their depth is 9 cm, and the width is different. The plastic drain tank is additionally insulated with styrene - a material that protects against the formation of condensate. The drain tank is placed on a steel frame. The front part of the tank is equipped with a special cutout through which the push-button device for draining the water is mounted.

During operation, this opening provides access to the mechanism for repair and maintenance in case of replacement of defective parts. Modern models equipped with the function of dosing the volume of drained water using buttons. By clicking on one, 3 liters are drained, and on the other - 6 liters.

Before installing a wall-hung toilet, make sure you have necessary tool and material.

So how are u different manufacturers the equipment is different, first it is better to buy a toilet, and then buy everything necessary materials for its installation and connection recommended by the manufacturer in the instructions. To carry out installation work, it is necessary to prepare:

• drill;
• drills for concrete;
• hammer;
• screwdriver with nozzles;
• adjustable wrench;
• FUM tape (to seal the thread);
• core;
• corrugation for sewer pipe;
• building level;
• sheets of double waterproof drywall.

Toilet installation

Fastening scheme: 1 - Rods for fastening; 2 - Monolithic concrete base; 3 - Pipe.

Installation begins with the fact that it is necessary to install a steel rigid frame (installation), which must be firmly installed and fixed with dowels to the main wall and to concrete floor. At the installation site of the toilet, a sewer pipe with a diameter of 110 mm should be removed. It is necessary to provide for the supply of a water pipe.

The installation should be installed exactly relative to the horizontal and vertical planes, for this the building level is used. Installation is very easy, because the steel frame has retractable rods, as well as special studs for attaching the frame to the wall.

The height of the bowl can be adjusted according to the height of the people who will use the sanitary ware. The optimal installation height of the wall-mounted toilet bowl can be selected empirically. It is usually done in such a way that the seat is approximately 40 cm from the floor.

The next installation step is to connect the outlet of the wall-hung toilet to the sewer outlet, while using a corrugation. To check the performance of the connection, "bait" the bowl on the frame and make a control drain. Then the bowl must be removed, since its installation is carried out at the very last moment.

Then the place of installation of the frame is sheathed with sheets of double waterproof drywall, which is directly attached to the installation and to the wall metal profile. The instructions supplied with the hanging equipment by the manufacturer have a template for easy cutting of the front part of the skin. Its use facilitates the process of cutting the necessary technological holes in the drywall sheet.

After that, work on the surface cladding is carried out. ceramic tiles, matching the color of the overall interior of the bathroom.

After the tile adhesive is completely dry, the toilet bowl is fixed by hanging on 2 studs. They are wrapped in metal carcass installation system, which is located under the cladding.

Features of the installation of a hanging toilet

Device diagram a simple toilet for comparison.

1. All installation systems for connection to sewer pipes are equipped with nozzles with a diameter of 110 and 90 mm and an adapter for connecting to a plumbing fixture.
2. The installation itself uses a pipe with a diameter of 90 mm to make it easier to obtain a small bend radius.
3. The flush button is installed in the center of the front or top panel of the tank. In the event of a breakdown, by removing this key, you can access the internal fittings of the toilet bowl. Usually the key is not included in the kit, but sold separately.
4. In the event that the float mechanism fails, in order to prevent water from escaping, a drainage hole is built into the tank, through which excess water is drained into the toilet.
5. Almost all modern tanks of modular systems are equipped with a water saving function. It can be represented by two options: a double flush key (the larger part of the key is a full flush, the smaller part is an economical flush); Push / Stop system, which allows you to independently adjust the duration of the drain (when you press the button again, the drain stops, and if you do not press it again, all the water from the tank will drain).
6. For high-quality tiling, it is necessary to correctly set the location of the installation system relative to the facing joints. So, the drain tank button must be placed either in the center of the tile joint, or in the center of the tile (otherwise there will be unaesthetic asymmetry). Therefore, the installation is installed with an allowance of 2 mm, and the laying of tiles always starts from the button.
7. When using a mechanical drain key, the thickness of the wall that closes the structure should not be more than 6-7 cm.

The combined bathroom and toilet rooms are comparable in terms of the cost of repairs and the purchase of plumbing to the re-equipment of the kitchen. They buy quality modern materials and products. The wall-hung toilet set with installation has surpassed standard floor-standing designs in popularity due to its compactness, original installation system and ease of use.

How to choose an installation for a wall hung toilet?

Retail outlets offer a variety of products from Russian and foreign manufacturers. Installing a hinged system in the toilet saves space for washing machine, sinks, boiler. There is an additional area for decorating the room. But before you buy an expensive product, you need to familiarize yourself with its qualitative and quantitative characteristics. Without studying the instructions for installing a wall-mounted toilet bowl, various troubles are possible for installation - from water leaks to a complete failure of the device.

The device is a metal frame on which plumbing is attached. There are installations with a hanging toilet bowl and a button. Another option is an automatic flush without a separate button. When choosing between them and a floor toilet, first of all, you need to pay attention to the dimensions of the products. The former stand 100-150 mm closer to the wall than the latter with a tank. Strictly regulated dimensions do not exist. Each manufacturer produces products based on the needs of the consumer.

Second important point- performance of the flushing system. Habitual plumbing in this regard is not always reliable. It is characterized by the following problems:

• the occurrence of the button;
• float failure;
• weak water pressure;
• valve clogging.

The modern design is more reliable, so manufacturers give a ten-year operational warranty without fear of failure. The system may break. There is no access to it, since it is covered with drywall or tiles. Engineers took this into account and created a shutter release button.

The advantages of a wall hung toilet with installation are:

• reduced fluid flow while maintaining flow power;
• pneumatic actuated button activated with air system crushing;
• the noiselessness of the tank, hidden behind the wall and foam.

Ease of cleaning is an important factor in the operation of a suspended structure. A bathroom with a tank is often placed in a secluded place. Therefore, the approach to it is difficult. It is difficult to wash the reverse side of the product, the corrugated drain hose, it is inconvenient to shut off the water supply tap. The suspension system is free from all these problems. The apparent unreliability of attaching the wall-mounted toilet to the installation is erroneous. According to technical data, it is able to withstand a mass of up to 0.5 tons (average weight of a person is 70-80 kg).

The only disadvantage of a wall-hung toilet with an installation is its price. It is several times higher than that of a conventional bathroom. In Moscow, you can buy a wall-mounted toilet bowl with an installation kit at a price ranging from 13,000 to 25,000 rubles. Taking into account the daily water consumption, operating costs, the durability of the structure, it must be assumed that expensive products will pay for themselves faster than a floor product. The cheapest product is not equipped with a flush button. Its cost is from 11 to 12 thousand rubles.

The disadvantage of installations is the difficulty of repair in case of water leakage. Therefore, which hanging toilet with installation is better to choose , the buyer decides. First of all, you need to pay attention to the manufacturer. The ranking of hanging toilets for the toilet is headed by several companies. Among them:

• Geberit;
• Grohe;
• Cersanit;
• Tece;
• Villeroy & Boch.

The main difference between products from different manufacturers is the presence of a water release button, which can be designed in a traditional form or equipped with touch controls with innovative odor removal. The frame may include a carbon filter device. Grohe has added a backlight key. Models with two buttons for descent of different amounts of water are sold. One delivers 3 liters and the other 6 liters.

Installation costing from 6 thousand rubles involves the use of low-quality metal fittings, pipes and seals. Such a frame may soon deform, sealants leak. Therefore, such “savings” will lead to even greater losses in repairs, not only in your apartment, but also in the one located on the floor below.

How to install a wall hung toilet with installation?

According to the type of fastening, the technical product is frame and block. The latter option includes a flat tank, a drain button and fixing elements. The bathroom is isolated on the floor or wall. The advantage is a lower price compared to a frame structure. The disadvantage is that the block must stand on the main wall. Drywall, foam block or brick partition in one brick will not withstand the load. For zoning the area, a frame type of fastening is suitable. A corner installation for a wall-hung toilet, a free-standing partition, a niche for a cistern with water supply lines - all these are options for the frame.

TECE launches a reinforced installation for a wall-hung toilet. Special strength and rigidity are obtained due to the double frame. Geberi has improved the support of the structure. In terms of cost, they are about the same. Installation can be carried out even on a non-main wall, or when there is a large distance from the partition to the toilet due to heating and water pipelines passing through the floor. A practical example for a combined bathroom and bathroom is a frame universal installation of a hanging toilet (pictured).

The dimensions of such a product are not regulated by the rules. It is assembled based on specific planning conditions. Separate nodes can be located in different parts of the room, i.e. where it is convenient - in the corner, below, behind the partition, and even in different rooms.

The block system is less universal. It can only be fixed to the main wall. Repair, replacement of defective parts, installation additional design are difficult tasks. However, standard dimensions of bathrooms have been developed that correspond to the height of a person in the “sitting” position. The width of the system is between 300-400 mm. The depth and height of the installation for a wall-mounted toilet bowl, respectively, are 500-600 mm and 300-500 mm. Insignificant differences in size in height are provided for people of different heights. But they do not cause much discomfort when using.

Do-it-yourself wall-mounted toilet installation

Installation of equipment does not require special knowledge and skills, the use of complex tools. But if there is no experience with adjustable wrenches, sealing materials, then it is better to seek help from professionals.

You need to start by taking measurements from the floor surface to the edge of the frame pipe, taking into account the height of the bowl, but not more than 400 mm. If the height is greater, then you can reduce it by adjusting screw device. Standard Width installations for a wall-hung toilet - 500 mm. The most common variant with a size of 10 mm.

The level checks the position of the system horizontally and vertically. The frame should be fastened at the same distance from the wall at the main points where holes are drilled and dowels are inserted. Then proceed to the connection of the sewer pipe, the supply of water to the drain tank. The plumbing and the tank are connected by a stainless steel tube. Rubber hose is not suitable for this purpose. It is imperative to provide for the installation of a shut-off valve in the place where the liquid is supplied in front of the drain tank. It is needed to immediately shut down the system in case of depressurization. For sewerage, polyethylene corrugated pipes are used. Then the frame structure is attached with its connection to the water supply. All communications after installation are checked for tightness by repeated draining of water.

The desire of designers to improve the appearance of toilet bowls, the creation of stylish bathrooms contributed to the popularization of block and frame structures with a hinged bowl.

The installation itself is not cheap, and you will also have to pay extra for its installation. Therefore, many home craftsmen hone their plumbing skills and carry out installation work on their own. Agree, would it be nice to save money by fixing the toilet to the installation with your own hands?

We will help you resolve this issue. In the article, we describe in detail the device, the principle of operation and types of structures, and also provide step by step technology and photo instructions for installing the toilet.

If the appearance of the external elements of the installation depends only on the imagination of the designer, then the arrangement of its internal structure can be divided into 2 options: frame and block.

Image Gallery

The frame of the drain button is fixed with latches and can be easily removed. Under it is a hole for supplying a water hose with a compact faucet. Within this "mounting" window on the front wall of the tank is and, which is twisted out of the tank by hand and repaired without dismantling the box.

Myth #3. A wall hung toilet takes up minimal space.

Block and frame installations require an additional 20-25 cm of bathroom space. Therefore, these designs take up even more space than a floor-mounted toilet. The only option to reduce space is to place the installation in a wall niche.

Myth #4. There are no spare parts for block installations.

The sizes of components from most manufacturers are standardized, because repairable models have priority when buying. In plumbing stores, picking up a broken part is not difficult. In addition, you can do it yourself.

Step-by-step installation of installation and toilet bowl

Installing a plumbing installation yourself is easy. The main danger is the leakage of the junction of the sewer pipe and the toilet pipe after the final installation.

To avoid such problems, you must follow all the rules step by step installation installations. Next, installation schemes for toilet bowls with various designs will be considered.

Required Tools

To carry out the installation of the installation and attaching the toilet bowl to it, the following tools and materials are needed:

1. Screwdriver.
2. Wrench.
3. Drill-perforator with drills.
4. Pliers.
5. Dowels and bolts.
6. Hammer.
7. Level.
8. Roulette with a marker.
9. Silicone.

The minimum of tools and materials that will be useful when installing the installation itself is listed. When installing the box, other devices are needed, but this work is best left to professionals.

Installing a block installation

You can install a block installation in two ways:

1. In a specially prepared niche in the wall.
2. On a concrete slab, which is then sewn up with drywall.

Regardless of the type of installation, the list of steps for assembling the installation remains the same.

Step one. Marking in the bathroom. In small narrow rooms the toilet bowl is installed along its axis, and in large ones it is better to place the bowl along the axis of the drain.

First you need to draw a line with a marker or chalk from corner to corner of the room along the wall where the installation is planned to be installed. Then, along the installation axis of the bowl, it is necessary to draw a line perpendicular to the first one, using a building corner.

step two. Formation of attachment points. In accordance with the intended axis of the installation of the bowl, the fixation points of the block structure are determined. If the axis of the bowl and the wall are skewed, wooden or plastic spacers can be placed under the fasteners to achieve an angle of 90 degrees.

In loose concrete slabs, fastening with dowels is preferred, which provide the maximum contact area of ​​the fastener with the wall.

Be sure to center the location of the dowels relative to the middle of the toilet drain hole. If the distance between the fixing points of the block is 60 cm, then each dowel hole should be drilled at a distance of 30 cm from the axis of the bowl.

After marking, it is necessary to drill holes with a drill and insert the fasteners attached to the product into them.

Step Three. Fixing the block structure. The drain tank is screwed with screws or anchor bolts to the wall. After that, a water hose is connected to the structure, and pipes are attached that will dock with the toilet bowl.

Inside the "installation" window, there is usually a flexible hose that comes with the kit, into which water is supplied through an adapter with a tap

Step Four. Screwing in the support pins of the bowl. After fixing the block mechanism, a toilet bowl is attached to it. Metal rods are inserted into the holes for its fastening and the places of their fastening on the wall are determined so that the height of the toilet seat is 40-48 cm.

The rods are made of heavy-duty rigid steel and can withstand loads up to 450 kg without deformation. Subsequently, it will not be possible to change their location without dismantling the decorative box.

After that, the toilet bowl is removed, and holes are drilled in the concrete slab for the rods with a drill, which are then fixed in the wall with fasteners.

Step five. Mounting sewer drain. The toilet bowl is hung on the support pins and a pipe for draining water from the tank is inserted into it. After that, the sewerage scheme is determined and its installation is carried out with rigid fixation of the outlet 110-mm pipe.

Rigid fixation of the sewer connection is required, because when installing the toilet bowl, the pipe should not change its position

Step Six. Sheathing of a block installation and installation of a toilet bowl. After installing the sewer, the toilet bowl is removed and the decorative sheathing of the entire plumbing structure begins with tiles or moisture-resistant drywall.

The drain button and its frame are installed last. But the operation of the drain mechanism should be tested only after the sealant has dried at the sewer joint

When the sheathing work is completed, the drain button is mounted, and the bowl is placed on the drain pipes and supporting metal pins. After that, the toilet takes root with nuts to the wall.

Instead of sheathing the drain hole of a block design, support rods and sewers, they are sometimes poured with concrete.

When mixing concrete for pouring, it is necessary to buy only certified materials, as well as follow the technology, because the structure will experience heavy loads

To do this, after the fifth step, a common wooden formwork is mounted around these structures, and its internal volume is poured with concrete. After 5-7 days after pouring, the formwork is removed, and the toilet bowl is docked with support pins rigidly fixed in concrete, sewer pipes and a cistern drain.

Installation of a toilet bowl with a frame installation

The installation of a frame installation with a toilet bowl can be carried out in an arbitrary place in the bathroom. Single-frame structures are attached to the wall and floor at the same time, while double-frame installations can be installed in the middle of the room in a special partition.

The installation of both design options differs only in the place where the metal frame is attached and the shape of the decorative sheathing, so their installation will be considered as part of one step-by-step instruction.

Step one. Assembly frame structure. The installation of the installation begins with the assembly of the metal frame. To compensate for uneven floors and walls, retractable legs are provided in the frame design. After adjusting the position of the frame according to the level, the paws are rigidly fixed in the required position.

To regulate the distance between the wall and the frame, there is a special mechanism. Fixing the position of the foot must be done rigidly to avoid possible distortion of the frame.

The installation is applied to the place of installation, and the places where it is necessary to drill holes for the dowels are marked with a marker.

step two. Installing the tank on a metal frame. The height of the water tank can also be adjusted, but not in all installation models. The recommended height of the release button is 1 m from the floor surface.

The height of the drain button is not critical for the operation of the mechanism, but polls show that 100 cm is the best option.

Based on this parameter, the level of the drain tank location inside the metal frame is selected. Fittings for draining water are mounted together with the tank.

The frame structure often has a height-adjustable horizontal metal bar. It has holes or clips for attaching the support rods of the toilet bowl, pipes for draining water from the tank and sewage.

Step Three. Sewer installation. A 110 mm sewer pipe is laid to the frame.

Step Four. Frame fastening. Holes are drilled for fastening the metal frame, and then it is screwed with screws or anchor bolts to the wall and floor at the intended points. The optimal distance from the frame frame to the wall is 140-195 mm.

It will not be possible to screw the frame close to the wall, because a 110 mm sewer pipe must still be placed behind the metal paws

The sewer pipe is fixed to the frame using the available fasteners.

After the frame installation is fully assembled, it is necessary to make sure that the support heights of the pins and nozzles are correctly adjusted. For this, a toilet bowl is hung on the structure.

Step five. Leak test. Connects to drain tank water pipe and the faucet opens. After filling the tank, a test drain is performed. In the absence of leaks, the toilet bowl is removed and the installation lining begins.

Step Six. Formation of a box around a frame installation.

There are two ways to close the metal frame:

• sew up with drywall;
• overlay with bricks and tiles.

Before insulating the installation, it is necessary to close its nozzles with plugs or plastic bags. For sheathing, you must use a moisture resistant drywall sheet 12.5 mm thick. The box will be a decorative element that does not have a support load.

The front panel of the box must be reinforced at the back with a metal profile so that if you accidentally press the drywall with your hand, it does not burst and fail

When sheathing, it is necessary to foresee the formation of holes for the nozzles and support pins of the toilet bowl.

step seven. Fixing the toilet bowl to the installation frame. You can start installing the toilet bowl for installation immediately after plastering and painting the drywall box. If the metal frame was lined with bricks and tiles, then the toilet should be placed on it 10 days after the end of the work.

Between the bowl and the wall, instead of silicone, you can put a gasket made of insulation 1-2 mm thick to prevent cracking of the ceramic coating under loads

Before fitting the toilet on the support pins, it is necessary to lubricate the rubber gaskets of the sewer pipes and the drain hole of the tank with silicone. Also, a layer of sealant is applied to back wall toilet bowl at a distance of 5 mm from the edge along the entire perimeter of contact with the wall.

The bowl is fixed to the wall with two bolts screwed onto metal pins. A day later, you can make a test drain to check the operation of the entire installation.

Block and frame installations do not necessarily involve the installation of a hinged toilet bowl. It can be installed classically on the floor. The installation scheme of the floor-mounted toilet differs from the above methods only in the location of the fasteners and the sewer pipe.

When installing the toilet on the floor, it is fixed both on the supporting horizontal rods and screwed to the floor. Bowl manufacturers choose the type of attachment based on the shape of the product.

When fixing the toilet bowl to the floor, it is necessary to outline and drill in floor tiles two mounting holes. After sheathing the installation with a box, the toilet bowl is mounted to the sewer and cistern drain pipes, and then screwed to the floor using the existing fasteners.

After the final fixation of the toilet bowl, it is necessary to coat the perimeter of the base with silicone sealant so that water and dirt do not get under the bowl

You can additionally use to connect the sewer pipe and the toilet bowl.

The frame must be bolted in at least 4 places.

The water supply pipe must have a separate shut-off valve in a convenient location.

Following the proposed instructions will protect the apartment from flooding and prevent the need to dismantle the decorative box during the first years of operation of the toilet.

Conclusions and useful video on the topic

Videos in a few minutes will allow you to put together in your head a complete puzzle of assembly schemes for toilet installations. After viewing them, the above step-by-step instructions will become more understandable and conscious.

The process of assembling a frame installation:

Installing a block installation in a niche:

Fixing the toilet bowl to the installation frame:

Suggested step-by-step instruction installation of a toilet bowl with frame and block installations fits into several hours of work, if you do not take into account the time to create a decorative box.

The essence of the installation is reduced to a smooth and durable fastening of the frame, connecting the nozzles and docking the toilet bowl with the drain block. This can be done by every economic person who knows how to handle the necessary tool.

Of course, no one can do without a toilet. modern apartment. Standard models are gradually becoming obsolete, they are being replaced by more modern, convenient and functional built-in ones. You can install such a design absolutely on any wall of the room, which allows you to maximize the use of the entire space of the bathroom for convenience and comfort. does not require the mandatory intervention of professionals, you can easily make it yourself. To do this, you need to familiarize yourself with certain subtleties and rules.

Advantages of built-in toilets

Built-in toilets are the most common among the modern population. And this is not surprising, this design allows you to translate into reality all the ideas of the owners. In addition, built-in toilets have several advantages:

The only drawback of such toilets is the high price, but it's worth it.

In general, there are built-in toilets, both floor-standing and hanging. Which ones to choose - proceed from your personal preferences, but keep in mind that hanging options greatly simplify cleaning in the room. Because in the case of toilets that are located on the floor, there is always a hard-to-reach area at the back, where it is quite problematic to clean up.

You can install such structures on absolutely any wall, no matter if it is load-bearing or made of drywall. The main rule during installation is to choose the right installation system.

There are several systems for installation, some of them require installation in the corner of the room, some systems are made in the form of rails, which also allows other plumbing, such as a washbasin or bidet.

What is a wall mounted toilet

As you have already seen, wall-mounted toilets are quite convenient to use and easy to install. This design is a steel frame, which is quite durable. The main part is attached to it - the toilet bowl. This frame must be properly secured so that it can support significant weight.

A special device is built into this frame, which allows you to adjust the height of the toilet. The bowl itself is directly attached to special pins located in the frame structure. Thus, the hanging faience is fastened.

The next integral element of the whole structure is the drain tank, which is most often made of plastic. Its main advantage is that it is hidden in the wall, while it is absolutely invisible, moreover, there is practically no noise during operation.

In front of the tank, on one of its walls, there is a hole where the drain button will be installed. It is also used in cases where it is necessary to repair or replace any spare parts in the structure. The most basic element in the entire built-in toilet is its bowl. On sale you can find a wide variety of shapes and shades, which allows you to emphasize the originality and sophistication of the taste of the owners.

Existing types of installation

Before you install a built-in toilet, you need to figure out what types of installation exist:

1. Frame installation, which is represented by a metal frame, its kit includes the necessary fasteners and supports.
2. Block installation, which is a plastic tank that is sold with a set of fittings, a variety of studs to be able to fix the toilet, and plates for anchor bolts.

Installation with a steel frame, although expensive, is the most reliable and fastest. The first step is to assemble all the constituent parts of the frame and fix it. It can be mounted in several ways: on the wall at four points, on the wall at two points and on the floor at two points, or completely stand on the floor. The sizes of the metal frame are quite diverse, choose it based on the size of your room.

The main advantage of this installation is that no attachment to the wall is needed, the toilet can be installed independently anywhere in the bathroom. The only drawback is the rather high price, so not everyone can afford such designs.

Frame installations are sold complete with a built-in plastic drain tank. If necessary, this design provides free access to the fittings, which is located behind the flush button. With a block installation, it is possible to install a toilet bowl only on a main wall, which is a huge disadvantage, however, such kits are much cheaper than the previous ones at a price.

Perform the installation installation very carefully and accurately, the quality of all subsequent work and the durability of the entire structure depend on this stage.

How to install a built-in toilet without using installation systems

If for some reason you do not want to install, then it is quite possible to do without it. To do this, make an appropriate concrete base. Cistern In this case, you can install in several ways:

• Mount in the wall, and at the same time bring out the drain button;
• Place on top of the toilet bowl.

Instructions for installing a built-in toilet without using installation systems:

Connecting a built-in toilet to cold water should be done with metal pipe rather than flexible hoses. This method will make the design more reliable and durable. And to the sewerage system, on the contrary, you need to connect using a corrugated pipe, the diameter of which will be at least one hundred millimeters. Remember to turn off the cistern valve when you connect the toilet to the cold water supply.

The standard cost of carrying out work on a is half the amount spent on the purchase of a plumbing fixture. Given such prices, it is quite understandable that you want to save money and do the installation yourself. Use the training videos and follow the instructions when.

Types of installation systems

Consider the design of the installation to understand how it is mounted. In fact, this is a steel frame, which is attached to the ceiling and the wall, or only to the wall. After installation, communications and plumbing are brought to the module. Then the frame is sheathed with dry plaster and lined. Consider the differences between the systems.

Advice. Suspended plumbing only visually reduces the space, installation requires the same amount of space as for a conventional model.

Installing the installation

Models of installation modules may differ, so before starting installation, carefully study the instructions for your model. Start creating markup:

1. Draw the center line of the center of the installation.
2. Mark the distance from the frame to the wall, it must be at least 13 cm.
3. Mark the location of the drain tank.
4. On the floor, mark the places where the anchors will be. It is better to do this with a fitting frame.

Marking for mounting the frame

Use a perforator to make holes for the fasteners and put the installation in place. Attach the frame to the anchors and adjust in height. Secure the system using a level. The frame must be rigid and level.

Advice. Purchase the toilet together with the installation module to avoid surprises during installation with mismatched connection connectors.

Connecting communications

First of all, we bring water to the tank. Modern tanks have two types of connection to choose from: top or side. The pipe must be plastic, because. flexible hoses have a limited service life. To replace such a hose in the future, you will have to dismantle the false panel with the lining. Agree, this is too expensive to replace one tube.

Tank installation

Having installed the tank, proceed to the installation of sewer pipes. The toilet outlet is connected to the sewer outlet by means of a corrugation. It is very rare when it is possible to make a connection directly. Mount the tank button.

It is necessary to check the tightness of the system. The toilet bowl is hung on the frame, a test flush is made. Then the toilet is dismantled, and finally installed after completion finishing works. The toilet bowl is placed on the floor with a bowl down, the fasteners are baited and fixed on the frame. Under the bowl is to put a soft stand for safety net.

Sewer connection

Advice. The studs for fixing the toilet bowl must be screwed in before finishing work begins.

Facing the installation module

The installation frame is sewn up with moisture-resistant drywall sheets, which are mounted directly to the frame or to the profile box. The instructions usually contain a detailed cutting map, taking into account slots for holes for the drain button. Plasterboard sheathe the entire wall or just a niche. A shelf for accessories is often made in a niche. The partition is faced with any finishing material or plaster.

Facing the installation module

After the lining has dried, install the toilet bowl completely.

Advice. The drain button of the tank looks good if it is located in the center facing tiles or in the center of the tile joint. Therefore, it is advised to lay the tiles from the button.

Concrete base instead of installation

It is possible to replace an expensive installation system with a homemade concrete alternative. The drain tank in this design can be installed in two ways:

• as standard over the bowl on the manufactured base;
• mount the tank behind a false wall, bringing the mechanical drain button to the wall.

This variation is quite economical, but the installation of the base will take more time compared to the installation of a store installation, since you have to wait for the concrete to gain strength. You will need the following materials for the work:

• about 40 liters of ready-made concrete: cement not lower than M200, sifted sand, fine gravel and water. The ratio of components in the proportion of 1:2:3:0.8.
• boards or plywood for formwork;

concrete base

• wood screws for collecting formwork;
• threaded rods for fixing a toilet bowl 20 mm thick, about 80 cm long;
• silicone sealant;
• plastic pipe according to the size of the plum;
• drain fitting;
• level.

Start by drilling holes for metal rods in the wall. The depth of the hole is 15 cm. The hole is cleaned and glue is poured inside ( chemical anchor). Insert the rod. The formwork is mounted on self-tapping screws, a hole is pre-drilled in the front board for the release of rods. For the stability of the formwork, nuts are screwed onto the pins. building level check the vertical. Install the clutch. Before concrete work, they try on the final version: the outlet of the toilet bowl is combined with the coupling, and the rods must go into the holes for fastening. The drain hole of the coupling is covered with foam and pressed. poured concrete mix into the formwork. Again check the level. After three weeks, the formwork can be removed and the installation of plumbing can begin. Gaskets are installed on the toilet and put on the pins. Check stability and performance.

Advice. The appearance of the installation does not inspire confidence in some, however, such a frame can withstand a power load of 400 kg.

Health check

Before sewing up the entire structure with a false panel, you need to make sure that there are no leaks and that the system as a whole is working. To check, open the water supply tap. After the tank is full, the water is drained. You need to do this several times.

The toilet with installation looks neat and fits most interior styles.

If there are problems, then possible reasons may be like this:

• when water leaks from the tank - most likely the gaskets are installed incorrectly or moved during installation. Shut off the water, unscrew the connecting bolts, inspect and correct the gasket;
• if the toilet staggers, then somewhere it is worth tightening the bolts in the installation or the fasteners of the toilet itself. Tighten the bolts carefully so as not to split the ceramics and not to break the threads of the fastening fittings;
• standing water in the toilet indicates that the drain pipe is installed at the wrong angle. Dismantle the device and set the drain strictly at 45 degrees;
• leakage at the floor can be caused by insufficient sealing of the corrugations.

Installation of a wall-mounted toilet is technologically more complicated than installing a classic counterpart. However, if you own a construction tool, then if you wish, installing the installation with your own hands will not cause difficulties.
