The suspended toilet bowl consists of such details:

  • strong steel frame for mounting the device;

  • toilet bowl;
  • exhaust pipe;
  • fasteners.

To change the height of the product, adjustable bars are provided on the frame, and it is attached to the wall using studs. The toilet bowl is made of plastic, which is treated with a special coating that prevents the appearance of condensate. There is a special cutout for the drain system. On the side and on top of the tank there is a place to connect to the water supply network.

The size of the installation for a suspended toilet depends on its type.

  3. Height - up to 1400 mm. Shortened versions are also available - up to 800 mm.

Assembly work

Anyone with minimal construction skills can complete the installation.

Installation is carried out in two ways:

  • without frame for toilet bowl;
  • with installation (frame).

Experts recommend the latter, because the element already has the necessary dimensions and fasteners.

So then we will talk about the installation in this design.

  1. The most important part is the installation installation.. The work must be done before the lining of the toilet room.

Tip: it is necessary to pre-install the outlet pipe O110 mm and bring the water pipe.

Installation height for wall-hung toilet - block type - up to 1 m, frame - up to 1.4 m
  1. Install steel frame. Installation is carried out strictly on the level in all planes, which can be achieved by adjusting the sliding fasteners.
  2. The starting position of the frame - the lowest place. The optimum height of the bowl is 420-470 mm.

Tip: if you plan to floor the floor after installing the toilet with ceramic tile, note that its height will increase by about 20 mm.

  1. Try on the height of the bowl and secure the product with locking bolts. There are screws and dowels for mounting to the wall.
  2. At the end of the installation installation, you can bring a pipe with water to the drain tank.

Tip: it’s better to use a rigid rather than flexible eyeliner.

Such a pipe will have a longer service life, and it is more reliable. After the installation is completed, the entire system must be closed with tiles or plasterboard.

Tip: plumbing must be connected through a faucet, which will quickly help in case of need to close the access of water to the toilet.

Connecting the toilet to the drain pipe

You may encounter the fact that the sewer drain does not coincide vertically with the release of the toilet bowl. The problem is solved by installing a corrugated pipe. If desired, it can be extended and rotated where necessary.

The width of the installation for a suspended toilet is usually 500-600 mm

Upon completion of work, check the functioning of the entire system in the complex. For what connect the bowl, fill the drain tank with water and make a control descent. If no leaks or other defects are found, fix all the parts and start facing.

Before you choose an installation for a suspended toilet, as well as a sanitary equipment, be aware that not only the price, but also the quality of performance is taken into account. Today there are enough models of foreign manufacturers on the market.

For example, Grohe, whose installations are:

  • have high quality performance;
  • reliable in operation;
  • can last without repair for about 25 years.

The quality of this product is not in doubt, in contrast to the cheap products of Asian manufacturers, which have filled our country's markets today and look quite attractive. Keep in mind that you will not be buying the product for one year, so it’s foolish to save on its quality.

We carry out facing

After installing the toilet with the installation, you need to close the entire structure to give the room an aesthetic look. For plating you can use any material that you like and with which you can work.

For example, the simplest option would be facing with waterproof plasterboard. Close the wall on which the frame is installed, will help the template on the product packaging.

The instruction allows to fasten the sheets or:

  • screws on the frame,
  • make the design of the guide profiles.

After that, in the front cut-out of the drain tank, you need to install a restrictive cuff and cover to protect the water tank from foreign particles and dust. Cut the cuff over the facing surface of the notches on it.

A narrow installation for a suspended toilet can only be 400 mm wide.

Then you can revet the walls of the bathroom with ceramic tiles, hiding the installation system, sewer pipes and water supply. Outside there will be only a toilet bowl. Thus, you get a practical and beautiful view in the room.

Thanks to two modes of water drainage - for 3 and 6 liters, you can significantly save water, which is especially important for homes with water meters.

The developers of the company proposed a model based on the standard dimensions of the majority of foreign and domestic sanitary facilities. Geberit has designed a plumbing kit for small spaces.

In this case, the manufacturer offers studs up to 500 mm in length, as well as a special bar that will help secure them in a convenient fastening zone. Other companies can not boast of this, so you have to use non-standard mounting options.

The cost of the toilet with the installation depends on many factors, including the brand. Products of foreign manufacturers are not cheap, but the quality of products and fastenings is very high.
