Installation systems for toilets. What is a toilet installation: a modern toilet

Choice modern plumbing in our time, it is so large that when you come to a specialized store, it is easy to get lost in the models and designs of various objects and devices. Therefore, when planning to make repairs in a bathroom, it is best to understand the purpose in advance and arrange the necessary devices and accessories for it in order to immediately assess the possibility of connecting them to the water supply and sewerage system.

The toilet is a necessary plumbing fixture that, during overhaul usually changes in mandatory. There are two main types of toilet designs - the traditional, that is, floor-mounted, and the less common, but rapidly gaining popularity, wall-hung version. An ordinary, familiar and time-tested device is installed on the floor and does not raise doubts among users about its reliability. But when choosing the second option, questions very often arise, and one of them is which wall-hung toilet with installation to choose so that it is reliable and durable.

It should be noted that suspended structure has a number of advantages over traditional toilet. These pronounced advantages include:

• It becomes possible to completely hide all plumbing communications in a wall or decorative box, which often disrupt the aesthetics of the toilet room.
• The suspended design will eliminate the need to fix the toilet to the floor.
• In addition, the floors under the toilet become completely free, and this accordingly entails the following benefits:

— it is possible to install a “warm floor” system over the entire surface of the bathroom floor, without resorting to complex bypass configurations of pipes, cables or heating mats;

— the installation process is greatly simplified ceramic tiles on the entire floor, there is no need for complex cutouts in this fragile material;

- if the tiles are already laid on the floor surface, then you will not need to think about how to fix the floor-standing toilet on top of it without damaging the coating;

— the owners have the opportunity to freely clean all corners of the room, which is very important for maintaining cleanliness in the bathroom;

— the advantage is the compactness of the design, which allows for the maximum rational use of the already small area of ​​the bathroom;

• Installing a wall-hung toilet means reducing the noise level from draining water, since the tank is built into a wall or box.
• The system, as a rule, involves two levels of water drainage intensity, which helps to significantly save on water consumption costs.
• And, of course, the aesthetic side of the issue remains extremely important - wall hung toilets they really look very advantageous.

To make a choice suspended version, it will not be enough to get information about the toilets themselves - you will first need to figure out what the installation is and what it can be.

What is an installation and its design features

An installation is a frame system built into a wall or a decorative box on which all the elements of a wall-hung toilet are fixed, as well as the cistern, valves, water supply and sewer pipes, other devices or mechanisms. Design features include the following:

• The drain tank installed in the installation is made of plastic, not ceramic. This is done for the reasons that the polymer is always lighter than a ceramic product, which significantly reduces the load on frame system. But the external data of the tank is not taken into account - it will not be visible anyway.
• The tank designed for this system differs from the usual one in that the drain button is located on its front panel, while in traditional tanks it is located on top of the container.

• IN suspension system The design of the drain button also differs from a regular tank in that it consists of two sectors, one of which ensures complete drainage of water from the container, and the second - only half or even ⅓ of the total volume. This is especially important in cases where you have to pay for water based on water meter readings.
• After the complete installation of the structure, only the flush button and the suspended toilet itself will enter the bathroom.
• There are two ways to attach the installation - only to the wall surface, or to the wall and to the floor. Both mounts are quite reliable and can withstand a weight load of up to four hundred kilograms.
• Hanging systems can include toilets with various modern shapes and convenient system distribution of water when draining it, which greatly facilitates the maintenance of the bowl, as well as for a long time keeps her "new" appearance.
• It is very important to know that the dimensions of the niche or box for installing plumbing fixtures must ideally match the parameters of the plumbing elements. Therefore, when planning to purchase such a system, the installation location needs to be measured in advance. There are models equipped with sliding top drains that can be adjusted to the desired width, but in this case the load on the wall will be significantly increased.

Criteria for choosing an installation for a wall-hung toilet

To do right choice installation for a wall-hung toilet, some features must be taken into account:

• First of all, you need to pay attention to the parameters of the place where you plan to install the system, since these are the parameters you will need to navigate when purchasing the installation. In the event that the right size It was not possible to select a frame, you will have to purchase a model equipped with movable elements that allow you to adjust the frame to the parameters of the niche intended for it.
• If you plan to purchase a kit immediately with a toilet, then special attention You need to pay attention to its design and workmanship. This element of the overall design is particularly important, and the criteria for its selection will be discussed separately below.
• By selecting the desired model installation, it is necessary to carefully check its configuration, since in the absence of individual parts it is sometimes impossible to carry out a full installation of the structure. The installation kit may include various details, but it is recommended to purchase a design that has the following elements:

— supporting frame;

— a set of fasteners;

— drain tank;

- tank flush button;

— adapter for flush elbow;

— soundproofing materials.

• It is very important to take into account the method of installation of the structure, since sometimes it will be necessary to purchase additional fasteners for the overall kit.
• It must be remembered that for some models it is very difficult to find a replacement - it is also better to think about this factor in advance by studying customer reviews. If one of the necessary parts is not included in the factory package, then it is better to immediately select it and purchase it along with the installation, otherwise it would be wiser to refuse such a purchase altogether. You should not rely on the seller’s words that the items missing from the kit can be easily found anywhere else. It is absolutely illogical - if it is not in the assortment of the store that sells the installation, then it is unlikely to be picked up in other retail outlets.
• It is important to decide which wall the structure will be attached to. If it is a permanent wall, then the installation is carried out using anchor bolts. If they are not included in the kit, they will have to be purchased separately.
• In some cases, although the flush button is included in the kit, it is possible to choose a different model that you like better based on its design or the presence of one or two keys on its panel. Which button is better to choose will depend on the buyer’s preferences, but double buttons will help save on water consumption.

Main types of installations for wall-hung toilets

The installation for a wall-hung toilet can be one of three types of design. How they work is worth understanding in more detail.

• The block installation consists of a plastic tank enclosed in a durable metal reinforcement frame. This system is supplied with fasteners for installing the toilet. The block design is most often completely built into the wall, and is used not only for wall-hung, but also for floor-standing toilets.

The best option for its installation location would be ready niche in the room of a combined bathroom or a separate toilet. Quite often used as a niche back wall toilet room, which is then closed with a decorative plasterboard partition.

This type of structure is mounted exclusively on the main wall of the room.

TO positive aspects block installation can be attributed to it affordable price.

• The frame structure of the installation is a metal frame with high strength and reliability. Its installation can be carried out on the wall, at four points, or on the wall and on the floor.

The obvious advantages of this type include the fact that it can be installed on any wall of any design. The frame must be equipped with elements for securing the toilet, a drainage system and sewer outlets.

Such a frame can be mounted on a straight section of the wall or in the corner of the room. In addition, the design is suitable not only for hanging a toilet, but also for a washbasin, as well as a bidet.

• Corner frame installations are used if you plan to install a toilet (bidet, sink) in the corner of the room in order to save space. They are mounted on the wall or on the wall and on the floor. Their design is quite reliable and stable, but the price for such frames is usually much higher than for the two previous fastening systems.

Review of installation models for wall-hung toilets

When choosing an installation system for installation in a specific location, you need to take it into account design features. It should be remembered that the frame will be completely hidden in the wall or behind a partition, so there will be no constant free access to it. And this, in turn, means that it is best to immediately purchase a high-quality product and reliably install it, so as not to return to this issue again.

The table below shows examples of installations for wall-hung toilets.

If you purchase an installation without a toilet, you should find out in advance how to choose the right one.

Wall hung toilets

Criteria for choosing a wall-hung toilet

Wall-hung and wall-hung toilets are attached to the installation. As mentioned above, the wall-hung model does not touch the floor, while the attached model is mounted on the floor close to the wall. You should not trust the general opinion that toilets are universal in design, as they can have different variations.

To decide on the choice of this structural element, you need to rely on the following criteria.

• It is better, of course, to purchase the installation complete with a toilet - then you can avoid the search completely suitable model the last one. In the same case, if you have to buy these elements separately, you need to make sure that they are exactly compatible.
• Next, you need to pay attention to the material and shape of the bowl. Toilets can be made of ceramics, metal, glass, polymers, artificial stone etc.

However, most often they still meet and choose ceramic products, which are traditional and more familiar due to their qualities. Ceramic toilets are easy to maintain and are resistant to any chemicals, and are also quite durable.

• A high-quality toilet made of ceramics has a fairly large mass. It is by this criterion that it can be distinguished from Chinese products, the material of which is porous and therefore much lighter. Toilets from an eastern manufacturer are not very durable, so they will not last long term, a fine or large network of microcracks may appear on its coating over time. Therefore, you should not be deluded by the low price, since soon enough you will have to replace a low-quality product, which means new costs will follow.
• The shape of the toilet is selected depending on the user's preference, design design bathrooms and amenities. The toilet must not only be of high quality and reliable in mounting, but also be comfortable, therefore, when choosing a bowl, you should sit on it in the store before purchasing it.
• The surface of the toilet bowl must be perfectly flat and not have any deformations in the form of protrusions or depressions, otherwise the seat and lid will not fit tightly to it. This means that under load they will sag in one direction or the other, which will lead to rapid failure.

It is not difficult to check the evenness of the surfaces - you just need to place a regular wooden ruler on the rim in different places in turn and make sure that there should be no gaps between the ruler and the surface of the toilet bowl. If a loose fit is detected, it is recommended to discard the product, otherwise this flaw will subsequently bring a lot of trouble and unnecessary costs.

• It is very important to pay attention to the toilet flushing system, since the ease of use and quality of cleaning the bowl will depend on it. In older models, the water supply hole was always located in the upper rear part of the bowl, and flushing was carried out in one stream. IN modern products The design with circular, cascade or shower flush has proven itself well. In such devices, water is supplied to the toilet from several holes located under different angles around the entire perimeter of the top of the toilet. In this case, the water rinses the entire inner surface of the bowl, moving in a spiral.

• The internal design of the toilet bowl may have configuration features that prevent water splashing. However, in some cases, such shapes somewhat interfere with the effective emptying of the bowl.

If the design has an “anti-splash” feature, then the drain hole is located in the front of the bowl, or has a platform or shelf that prevents the rapid flow of water.

Video - The correct height of a wall-hung toilet

Video - Which toilet to choose

Where is everyone? How is he holding up? Can he stand me? What if it breaks? We constantly receive such a waterfall of questions from clients who for the first time see a wall-hung toilet or a large washbasin, which is mounted on a seemingly flimsy false wall or plasterboard partition. Plumbing installation- an installation system that allows you to install a sink, toilet, bidet and urinal almost anywhere in the bathroom, regardless of the type of walls. The term “installation” comes from the English installation, which means “built-in, installed inside.” This engineering solution for the bathroom allows you to hide pipes, connections, wiring and other “technical stuff” behind a false wall. Only a neat space will be visible, for example, with a toilet and a flush button. Bathroom installations provide large selection solutions in installing sanitaryware, saving space in small apartments. It is not surprising that such systems are becoming more common, because they have so many advantages!

Aesthetic, hygienic, practical

Modular installations provide more options for plumbing installation. For example, the toilet can be located in any part of the bathroom, regardless of the exit. And there is no need to worry about the mandatory slope, since the frame design implies individual adjustment in height.

Installations allow you to hide all pipes and valves behind a false wall, so the room looks visually more spacious, and the plumbing itself looks lighter and more harmonious in the interior. Many of our customers choose hanging sanitaryware for installation in installations. In practice, this solution makes cleaning the bathroom easier and faster because... the floor remains free and much easier to clean. Besides floor tiles placed without breaks, the integrity of the ornament is not violated, as happens during installation floor-standing toilet. The installation simplifies the installation of plumbing fixtures and makes it possible to lay heated floors over the entire bathroom area without cutting and adjusting the thermal elements.

If you are annoyed by a noisy toilet or the sound of water filling, installation and hidden installation provides almost silent flushing, because the tank in this case is hidden behind the wall. And sewer and water pipes can be covered with additional insulating materials, and this will not spoil the design of the bathroom because all the pipes are hidden.

The more technical elements we hide from view, the more opportunities we will have to bring them into the interior. original solutions. In this sense, wall-hung sinks, toilets, and bidets help realize the designer’s plans for working with space. Agree, no one complains about the “limitation” of imagination due to the fact that they got rid of open water pipes and sewers in modern houses and apartments. Although interiors in such an industrial spirit are possible. Of course, built-in plumbing has more advantages than traditional ones.

Main types of installations

Connecting a diesel power plant is a rather complex process consisting of several stages. The reliability of the equipment directly depends on the quality of commissioning work. This also affects the service life of the generator. Therefore, such work should only be carried out by experienced specialists.

Services for installation and connection of diesel power plants are provided by the Energoalliance company. When carrying out work, our specialists take into account the following factors:

equipment operating conditions;

fulfillment conditions repair work And maintenance;

compliance of the premises with technical, fire and other standards that must be followed during the installation and operation of the power plant;

the noise level emanating from the operating unit (it should not exceed the maximum permissible values).

Sequence of work

The equipment should be connected in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. It must be installed in a dry, illuminated room with good ventilation. The room must have doors that can be opened from the outside. Its area must be sufficient to accommodate the power plant.

Installation is carried out in the following order:

After delivery, the unit is unpacked and placed with the radiator facing the window of the room. It should be placed on a foundation cushion.

The diesel generator is securely fixed to the foundation. Fastening is carried out using anchor bolts.

Then shock absorbers are installed. They allow you to reduce vibrations during installation work.

Before the device is connected to the network, it is necessary to install an exhaust gas removal system. They must exit at a height of at least 3 m. The exhaust pipe is led to the street.

When all installation work is completed, you need to fill the generator with diesel fuel, add engine oil and coolant. Then the unit is connected to the network and the first start-up is performed.

Before connecting the device, if necessary, general construction and electrical installation work. After installation is complete, the device is tested and configured. Employees of the organization must be instructed about the rules for its operation.

Every day, wall-hung toilets are becoming more and more in demand. And, obviously, not in vain, because such sanitary ware has an unusual design that gives the room lightness and helps save space in bathrooms with a small area. However, it is quite difficult to install such a device correctly. A successful result largely depends on how wisely the installation system is selected and installed. This is the foundation on which the entire structure rests.

Installation system: what is it?

First, let's figure out what the installation system is for

The device consists of a metal frame, thanks to which all hanging elements are securely attached. Mounting system allows you to hide all existing communications behind a false wall, that is, only a neatly installed toilet with a flush button located on the wall will be visible.

Pros and cons

The toilet installation system has the following advantages:

Thanks to hidden pipes and the tank gives the plumbing fixtures an attractive appearance;

Has higher quality fittings;

Saves space in the toilet room and visually increases the space;

Has good sound insulation;

Ensures hygiene (the floor under the toilet is easy to clean);

Hanging models can be installed at an optimally comfortable and convenient height for a person.

The disadvantages of the design include:

Relatively high cost;

More complex installation;

Replacing the system requires dismantling the exterior trim.

Equipment

The design is suspended or consists of several elements. The installation system is based on a durable steel frame equipped with retractable rods that allow you to adjust the height and install it on the floor or foundation.

In addition, it is equipped with a flush key and a drain tank hidden installation, adapter for flush elbow, sound insulation and a set of mounting fasteners.

When choosing an installation, please note that the delivery package is not always complete. Therefore, if necessary, it is necessary to purchase the missing elements.

Types of systems

The construction market offers 2 types of installations: frame and block.

The choice of one system or another depends on where the main load of the structure will fall.

Frame installation systems are considered more complex and are used for installing wall-hung toilets on hollow plasterboard partitions. This design is more reliable and has everything necessary to secure the plumbing and itself. Frame systems are placed on the floor or foundation.

Installation is carried out using fasteners that securely fix the structure to the floor and wall. But still the main load falls on the lower base.

The frame structure has legs that allow you to adjust the height. It can even be installed in a corner.

Block systems are simpler. This design allows the installation of both wall-hung and floor-mounted toilets. IN in this case fastening is carried out only on main walls using anchors, which bear the main load. Block installation systems are cheaper, but require brick lining.

Flush key: location and appearance

A required element is the flush button. She is plastic panel. In addition to its main purpose, the key serves as an inspection hatch. Even before purchasing, it is important to decide on its location, since the flush installation system must fully comply with the design of the selected device.

The control key can be either single or double. Using the second option, you can regulate water consumption, which allows you to spend it moderately.

Based on technical characteristics, the flush can be:

With double flush (economical and normal);

With a stop-flush system (pressing the button again stops the flow of water);

Contactless (react to movement or obstacles using infrared sensors).

How to choose the right model

First of all, when choosing, you should take into account the reputation of the manufacturer. Self-respecting companies provide at least a 10-year warranty on plumbing products. And she
applies not only to the installation system, but also to all parts: gaskets, seals, pipes and tank. Good manufacturer continues to produce components even after the model is discontinued. In addition, well-known companies have authorized service centers that provide warranty service.

In stores you can purchase installation systems both complete with a toilet and separately. In the latter case, you should make sure that the installation fully corresponds to the sanitary product.

Manufacturers and price

Cost and quality depend on the manufacturer and performance characteristics. Of course, you will have to fork out money for a well-promoted brand, but you will get a truly high-quality and durable product.

The products of such well-known companies as Cersanit, Roca, Alcaplast, Geberit and Ideal Standard are in greatest demand. The system has won high praise and love from consumers German manufacturer has long been famous for the quality and reliability of plumbing products and guarantees the installation’s ability to hold a load of up to 400 kg.

Installation

The installation system requires ideal correct installation, because the reliability and service life of the equipment directly depends on it. In addition, the structure will be buried behind a false wall, making it difficult to reach. Therefore, manufacturers pay special attention to each coupling and gasket, which, accordingly, is reflected in the cost of the system.

Installation is carried out in the following sequence:

1. Installation of the structure.
First, precise markings are made indicating all the fasteners and holes are made for them using a hammer drill. Afterwards, the installation is installed with the obligatory alignment of the metal structure vertically and horizontally, as well as its final fastening.

2. Connection of the water supply and sewerage system.
For this purpose, plastic fixing clamps are used that secure the pipes of the cistern and sewer system. It is important that all parts are securely and tightly connected. This will avoid leakage.

3. Installation of the toilet.
To do this, it is necessary to precisely adjust the connecting pipes between the installation and the toilet. Such non-standard elements come complete with the toilet. Drain pipe is mounted in a special recess.

4. Exterior finishing.
After installation work, the structure requires the construction of a false panel. To do this, a frame is constructed from a metal profile, which is subsequently covered with moisture-resistant plasterboard. Upon completion of the work, the structure is decorated with finishing material.

Popularity is growing at a rapid pace. They are valued for their convenience, practicality and presentable appearance. However, installing installation systems requires experience and a competent approach. Therefore, to install the structure, it is still better to turn to professionals.

Our idea of ​​" good repair in the bathroom and toilet" are changing very rapidly. A few years ago they were figuring out which toilet was better - a compact one or one with a separate tank; today they install wall-hung toilets and other plumbing fixtures and argue about which toilet installation is better.

What is a toilet installation and what are they?

IN lately Wall-hung toilets and bidets are increasingly being installed. The structure on which they are mounted is called an installation. In addition to the weight of the plumbing bowl, the installation also holds sewer and water pipes, and some models also hold a water tank. The tank is made of polymer, access to it is limited, since it is then covered with tiles or other exterior decoration. After installation, only adjustment is possible with access through the drain button. It is for this reason that it is better to choose this type of plumbing fixtures good quality- if there are problems, you will have to redo everything - knock down the finish, change the tank, then do everything anew, and this is far from cheap.

There are two types of installations: block and frame. Block ones can otherwise be called attached - they are attached to the main wall (pictured below). That is, their installation requires a wall with sufficient bearing capacity.

Frame installations can be attached to the floor or to the wall, and may have only two attachment points to the floor. They differ in that they do not require reliable wall- their frame is more massive and necessarily rests on the floor. The frame installation for the toilet can even be installed in a plasterboard wall.

Regardless of the type, the process of installing a toilet installation is a messy business, so work must begin before finishing the walls in the bathroom or toilet. The frame installation for the toilet is generally installed at the stage of creating the partition or mounted in a prepared niche.

What to look for when choosing

Installations under the toilet are sold both complete with the bowl and separately. It’s easier, of course, to buy everything in a set. Then all sizes will exactly match. If you already have a bowl, you will need to look at the dimensions of the frame and the distance between the fasteners - it should coincide with the mounting holes in the toilet.

It is very useful if the frame has the ability to be adjusted in height - you can set the bowl to the level you need. Pay attention also to the type of painting. Best option- powder painting. It is reliable, creates a tough, durable film that adheres well to metal. All other types of paint hold up worse.

When choosing an installation for a toilet, you should pay attention to the equipment. Usually, fastening elements come along with the frame - for hanging the toilet, fittings for fixing sewer and water pipes. Some companies also include a tank and a drain button as standard. The drain, by the way, can be dual-mode. It is more economical, since when you press the large button, 6-9 liters are drained, and the small one - only 3-4 liters of water. It’s good if the drain is adjustable - the volume of flushed water can be adjusted to the specific shape of the toilet.

Which type is better?

Which type of installation for toilet and bidet is better? The frame structure is considered more reliable - it usually uses thicker metal, but it also costs more. In any case, when choosing a frame for a wall-hung toilet, pay attention to the strength of the structure - it should not wobble, its elements should not sag. Inspect welds and the quality of painting - there should not be even small flaws.

And a little about the manufacturers. The best toilet installations are those made in Germany and Italy. But their plumbing is expensive. The quality of equipment for bathrooms and toilets is made in the Czech Republic and Bulgaria, and the price range for their products is average. The cheapest installations and wall-hung toilets are Chinese, but dealing with them is risky - they can work fine, or they can quickly fail.

Toilet installation installation

Installation begins after the floor has been leveled. If a block type of installation is selected, then the walls must also be leveled. As already mentioned, installation of a block installation is only possible on a wall with good load-bearing capacity. Usually this load-bearing walls, since ordinary partitions can collapse.

First of all, you need to decide where to install the toilet. Depending on the type of installation, you will need to mount it to the floor or wall. It is necessary to connect sewer pipes and water to the proposed installation site. The pipes of these systems must be located in close proximity to the selected installation location.

We fix the frame to the floor

Then we put the frame in the place where it should be, check the verticality and horizontality. Then, with a pencil or marker, we make marks at the fastening points - there are holes in the frame.

Moving the frame along the marks, we drill holes to match the size of the fasteners. When installing in concrete, dowels with hex key heads are usually used. After the holes are made, the frame is put in place, the dowels are inserted and tightened.

We set the required installation height of the toilet bowl

Most toilet installation frames are height adjustable. When choosing, the height is calculated from the level of the finished floor - in fact, from the level of the laid flooring. If there is no coating yet, its thickness must be added to the required height.

To set the height, the frame legs are made adjustable. They are fixed with clamping bolts. To adjust, loosen these bolts (located at the bottom of the frame on the legs), set the desired height, check the horizontalness of the top bar, and then tighten the bolts again.

We attach it to the wall

For wall mounting, special adjustable bolts are included. At one end they are attached to upper corners frames, the second is fixed on the wall (with dowels of a suitable type).

After which the installation for the toilet is placed strictly vertically. A building level is applied to the side posts, rotating the nut on the fastener changes the position of the frame relative to the wall.

The procedure is important, but not complicated. We set everything with maximum accuracy, check it several times in all planes. Everything should be perfectly level. After adjustment, press the movable tongue on the fastener (in the photo it is under the finger). He clamps the screw, the frame is rigidly fixed.

The Groch company also has an additional clamp - a plastic bracket that clamps the thread. We install it near the flag (pictured).

Connection of sewerage and water

The next stage is connecting the pipe mounted on the frame to the sewer outlet. Some kits have factory elbows; if they are not there, you will have to look for a suitable one or install a corrugated plumbing pipe.

Another option is that there is a plastic clamp on the frame into which the sewer pipe is inserted (pictured above). In this case, the cross-section of the pipes is clearly specified.

Cold water is connected to the pipe on the tank. You can use any pipe, but it is important to make the connection reliable. Because use metal-plastic pipes It is not recommended with press fittings - they require periodic tightening, which in this case is problematic. That is, there are not many options left - polypropylene, copper pipe, polyethylene pipes connected by soldering.

We connect the adapter and the entrance to the tank flexible hose. Also choose it carefully, preferably in a good stainless steel braid. Ideally, buy a branded hose.

Finishing work

Since any installation for a toilet requires finishing, the entire installation process is divided into two parts - before finishing and after. The first one is finished, next comes finishing.

Usually the installed frame is covered with plasterboard. The instructions require installing two sheets. First, all the dimensions are transferred to the wall, a profile is mounted along the marked contour, and sheets of drywall are already attached to it.

Before starting work, you need to install the box for the button on the frame. For the period finishing works it will protect the inside from dirt. It is necessary to cut several holes on the sheets: for a button, a sewer outlet and water inlet from the tank, two pins for hanging the toilet bowl. To do this, place the sheet cut to size in place, then trace everything with a pencil. necessary elements. Holes are cut along the drawn contour. Having prepared two sheets, they are installed and attached to the previously mounted frame. After installing the gypsum board, the tiles are laid on the glue.

Installing the button and hanging the bowl

After finishing, the box for the button is cut - its edges should be flush with the tile. The cut off cover exposes two bolt holes. It is on them that the drain button will be held.

Before installation, a hose (if the drain is pneumatic) or a cable (if the drain is mechanical) is connected to the button. Then it is installed in place and tightened with two bolts (in the corners diagonally or as in the photo opposite each other).

Installing the bowl begins with installing the gasket. She is impaled on stiletto heels. We treat the holes for sewerage and water drainage in a circle with plumbing silicone.

For better sealing, the joint is coated with silicone. Having laid the strip, it is immediately leveled, and the excess is immediately erased. It is better to level with something smooth and rounded, for example, the handle of a teaspoon. That's all, you can check your work.
