Steps To Install Bidet Plumbing

By Scott Rodgers

The use of toilet paper doesn't satisfy the needs of some of the homeowners. They consider toilet paper as an appropriate material for cleaning their bottom. Also, the toilet paper doesn't render a cleaner operation than the other alternatives available in the market. One such alternative of toilet paper is the bidet plumbing.

Bidet plumbing gets its name from the bidet setting. A bidet is a toilet that washes your bottom with the help of a fine jet of water. The water wash is considered a better alternative than the toilet paper.

Generally, there are two types of bidets that are available in the market, the stand alone bowl and the spray hose. While the stand alone bowl type offers a detached setting to wash your bottom, the spray hose allows you to wash the specific areas with ease. Hence, the spray hoses are preferred over the stand alone bowl types of the bidets.

In order to equip your toilet setup with one such spray hose setting, buy the required supplies. Visit a local home improvement store and ask for a spray hose bidet unit. Make sure that the associated elements of the bidet such as anchors, mountings, nails, nuts, washers, connectors, bolts etc. are provided in the overall package. Also, the hose length must be at least 3 feet long such that it is comfortable to locate and maneuver.

Shut off the water valve of the concerned toilet located underside the toilet tank. Empty the cistern by flushing down the water. Once the water is emptied, take out the T-connector from the bidet unit and install it on the tail of the toilet bowl. The T-connector should be installed between the shut off valve hose and the toilet tank.

Install the bidet holder on the tank with the help of an electric drill. If you want to avoid the messy operation of an electric drill then employ the services of a double-sided Velcro.

Fix the bidet-holder completely with the nails and insert the hose into the T-connector.

Turn on the concerned shutoff valve and test the normal operation of the bidet setup. Observe the mouth of the spray hose closely to locate any leaks or flaws.
