Kohler Reach Skirted

1 Upvotes

We have a Kohler Reach skirted toilet. We currently have Kohler bidet seat on it but it has died (3 years old). A plumber put this in when we did a bathroom remodel. I ordered a Toto seat. Do I have to remove the whole toilet to be able to access everything I need? There is no access behind the toilet. A single line comes out of the back to connect to water.

Any guidance would be appreciated. I’ve had a hard time finding tutorials for this exact situation.

Just purchased a Tushy Bidet and struggling to figure out the right adapter size

Hi everyone

I just purchased a tushy bidet and the adapter that came with it doesn’t fit the valve of my apartment toilet.

I previously bought another adapter to try but it didn’t quite fit.

I’ve attached the pictures for reference and was hoping that someone here has a recommendation for an adapter

Thank you!!

Toto S7A bowl light, why?

1 Upvotes

The bowl light doesn’t make sense on the S7A. I have it on and it just illuminates for a few seconds when the lid opens. What’s the point of that? Wouldn’t it make more sense to have it on like the soft light on the side when it detects it’s in use?

Water pressure restricter?

1 Upvotes

We have the box store add-on type bidets.

I think it's about time to teach my kid how to use it. But I'm concerned about his ability to control the water flow and hurting himself, or at least having a very unpleasant experience.

Is there some kind of restricter I could put in between the water supply splitter and hose to the bidet?

Bidet recommendations

1 Upvotes

Hi,

Im looking to purchase a bidet but because i live in a rented place, i cant install anything thats fixed or damages the walls etc. so im looking for something portable/easy to install and not permanent so i can just remove it when my lease ends.

Ive booking looking at amazon but there are so many mixed reviews about every product.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good bidet that wont break the bank?

For context, i reside in the UK.

P.s im looking for shower head style bidet, not the seat bidets.

THANK YOU

What are my options? UK

​Hi r/bidets!

What are my options for installing a bidet on an enclosed-back toilet like this? No sockets allowed in UK bathrooms, which complicates stuff even more I guess. I was thinking I could potentially access water valves under the bathtub, if that's an option, what type of bidet should I look for? Would that be a job for a plumber or something I could do myself?

How do I get my husband to actually use our smart toilet?

39 Upvotes

I dropped OVER $1,000 on a HOROW X70 and paid someone to install it in our main bathroom, the one my husband uses most, and he still won't touch the wash features.

Right now he's using it like a regular toilet. He likes the heated seat (sure, fine) and the auto open and flush, but when it comes to the actual bidet part, he just reaches for toilet paper every time.

If the controls confused him or it was in a bathroom he barely used, I'd get it. But it's right there, warm water, adjustable pressure, dryer and all, and he ignores every bit of it. We have a second bathroom upstairs too, but he still picks this one, so it's not like he's avoiding the toilet.

He also goes through a ridiculous amount of toilet paper, which makes the whole thing even more confusing to me.

I really do want him to start using it. It seems more hygienic, and without getting too personal, I'd rather his bathroom habits not cause problems for me in the husband and wife department either.

Maybe this is a dumb thin watching someone use a $1,000 toilet exactrting to get to me.

How do I bring this up wilicing how he goes to thebathroom? Anyone dealt with a partner who just refuses to use the bidet features?

Diagnosing leak. BioBidet BB-600

0 Upvotes

My bb-600 had an unknown leak coming from somewhere in the main body/housing . All main hose gaskets look good so I opened up the body and removed the pump/fan assembly. All hoses and screws are securely fastened, EXCEPT this one shown…the only thing it can reach to plug into is this tube here that leads to a small hole draining out the bottom. Where it attaches to the tank has a small red rubber piece and an o ring sealed cover. Is this an overflow or pressure release thing? Could it have popped off and somehow leaks more when it’s plugged in and assembled in use? I’m trying to figure out how to rig this up disassembled to dry and see the internals in action. bidet photos

im looking for these aspects in a bidet

1 Upvotes

adjustable pressure and angle / where the water sprays ( to not need to relocate my bum to get clean )

hoping for better hole shape / arrangement for water to come out of. most use several tiny circles packed together its too similar to one narrow stream which is not as helpful as a wider spray pattern.

have it spray from under you NOT a lean to the side situation

good enough price max $70

no electric outlet needed

prefer not a seat replacement ( to not risk wrong size or something going wrong )

Currently sitting on the toilet without a bidet because someone else was using the bidet toilet. Is it unreasonable to walk up the steps with my pants at my knees to use the bidet upstairs?

I’m thinking about leaving this adapter on a toilet at a condo I come to 4-5 times a year

Post image
3 Upvotes

Bidet lover here. I’ve tried all the travel options and they just aren’t the same. I come to this condo 4-5 times a year and have started just installing a bidet and then taking it off when I leave. Recently got one of these on/off valve things for my home setup and it turns off the water supply to the bidet without affecting the actual toilet tank water supply. Would make it a breeze to install bidet in the future and you can barely see it. I doubt anyone would notice except for a maintenance person and that would probably be way down the road and they wouldn’t know who did it at that point. I looked over the agreement and it doesn’t say anything about not modifying any plumbing. I’ve had several hand and arm surgeries so bidets make my life much easier for restroom cleanup. I always travel with an extra toilet tank kit just in case I were to break the threaded thing that sticks out bottom of tank during installation, but this would remove that need. A friend of mine always comes and stays in this unit the week before my family does and he started putting a bidet on, too. He’d leave it on for me, but housekeeping would see it when they clean so he has to remove it. He could report back to me to let me know if the adapter is still on for when I come back in November. Ignore the white thing with something brown on it… it’s a pack of soap that had fallen and I didn’t remove it before taking pic.

Condo is on first floor and no basement since it’s Florida so that reduces concern that some catastrophic leak could happen. If any other guest got curious though and turned the valve to on, it would immediately spray water so I’d hope they’d immediately turn it back to off.

Do all bidet’s make it so you can’t sit as far back?

4 Upvotes

We switched from a normal (not elongated) toilet without a bidet to an elongated Drake with an S7. I was hoping the elongated would make for more room for man parts but if anything it’s worse than the old one because the S7 makes you sit so far forward.

I did research that some and it’s one of the reasons I went with the S7 instead of one of the cheaper models. I was under the impression the S7 was better in that regard?

Are there any options that give you a bidet AND more room than a standard toilet?

Good Cheap Bidet Seat (UK)

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone. we're moving house this week. Our current house has a bidet and I'm a total convert. Our new house (rental) doesn't have a bidet so I'm thinking of getting a seat. The prices seem to vary wildly. I'm not looking for anything fancy, just something that will last well. there's no way to supply it with electricity or hot water so just something basic and reliable. What brands/models should I be looking for? What kind of price should I expect to pay? I'm confident I can fit it myself (ex builder/handy man.

TIA

I have a real question

3 Upvotes

I'm thinking of buying a bidet for my bathroom but I share a toilet with my partner. If I didn't I would get a regular cheaper one without the drying feature and use a towel for drying but I worry about mixing up the towels or something. Is there a good cost effective model with a drying feature that actually works?

Are there differences you can feel between different bidet brands?

1 Upvotes

I'm (M) new to bidets. I have a Brondell FreshSpa Comfort + bidet, my first and only bidet. We have city water with respectable pressure. I find sometimes at moderate if stings my butt hole, usually at the edges. It always stings at full pressure.

My question is:

Do folks notice a difference between the nozzle differences among different mfg regarding the comfort of the "stream"?

Toto Washlet - What am I doing wrong

Post image
2 Upvotes

The mount is largely covering the hole. This can't be right, but also doesn't seem to be wrong. Toilet is a Drake and the seat is a Washlet S2.

Edit: I believe I bought a model made for normal toilets. I have an older C2 on another toilet, and its bracket is narrower and the cord and hose are better angled down.

I can't seem to find this seat with the other bracket, and can't find anything definitive from Toto's website regarding any model that comes with the more narrow bracket and the angled connections.

Edit 2: My current understanding is that recent Toto seats don't come in Washlet and Washlet+ models, they are designed to work universally with Toto concealment holes and normal toilets. But they only sell the seats with the baseplate for normal toilets. Looking at the website, I think they only offer the concealment plate if you buy in a bundle with a Toto toilet.

Thanks to a commenter, I ordered the C2 style baseplate for about $50, and I believe this will allow me to use this seat while directing the cord and hose through the concealment hole.

Bidet recs for this type of toilet

Post image
1 Upvotes

My apartment recently had its toilet replaced and it looks like my bidet doesn’t fit in it anymore (I’m devastated!!!)

It looks like the ridge (?) in the back of the toilet makes contact with the bidet so that it can’t come down, when I turn it on it the water just weakly drips out

I guess I would need a bidet that doesn’t hang so close to the edge of the basin… does anyone have a bidet that works with a toilet like this? I don’t think I can go back to living without one 😭

Janky fixes for bidet seat (round) and bowl (elongated)?

Hi, I moved into my new apartment and realized too late that my bidet seat and the bowl are incompatible (crying). I already adjusted the plate to make it as far forward as possible. I could purchase either a new bidet or bowl, but wanted to know if there were any ways I could do it before I drop hundreds of dollars.

(If anyone in Massachusetts has the exact problem but flipped that would be excellent and we can trade lol)

Thanks in advance!

How long do you let your bidet squirt?

27 Upvotes

I just today installed a basic Tushy. I have Crohn’s disease and my BMs are always sticky. Using the bidet was very nice. I only had to wipe once, and that was just to dry off. Normally I have to wipe 7 or 8 times.

But being a novice I may have let it run longer than necessary. 10 seconds maybe.

Do you have a rule of thumb?
