The best installations for the toilet, Rating 2021, which one to choose good

We reviewed the best installations sold on the Russian market. We selected the best and most reliable models from them, and compiled a rating for 2021 from them. The TOP was compiled according to the opinion of experts and customer reviews. The installation is a steel structure that fixes the wall-mounted toilet at a height from the floor. It is a strong frame capable of holding the water tank, bowl and the person sitting on it. When the renovation is completed, this gives the bathroom an aesthetic appearance. The flush tank and supply elements are hidden in the wall, leaving only the toilet visible to the eye. Which installation to choose to solve the problem of bathroom renovation? Products differ in type of installation and design.

What is better: an installation or a regular toilet?

The popularity of wall-hung toilets with installation is explained by their undoubted advantages over other types of this plumbing equipment:

with the installation of the installation, the pipeline system is hidden, the toilet room takes on a more attractive appearance;
there is an opportunity to implement various design projects that correspond to fashion trends;
visually expands the space;
the process of cleaning the premises and bathroom equipment is simplified;
it becomes possible to repair the flooring under the hanging device without any difficulty;
the installation design allows you to reduce water consumption when flushing without compromising the flushing efficiency;
Installing suspended equipment of correctly calculated dimensions allows you to save room space.

Selecting a location and order of installation steps

When choosing the best location for the toilet, pay attention to a number of features of the room. Firstly, on its geometric parameters. Naturally, installation should be carried out where the plumbing fixture will interfere less. A good solution is a corner installation; it allows you to economically use limited space, and also helps to implement unusual design solutions.

There are corner installations on sale, but, in principle, a regular frame installation can be installed in the corner of the room.

Secondly, the proximity of communications, especially sewer lines, is important. Lengthening engineering routes will require the allocation of additional space for them. In addition, you will have to take into account the installation slope of the sewer (1.5-3 cm per 1 m), which, in the case of significant removal of plumbing, will increase the height of its attachment. These factors should be paid attention to, which will also facilitate further operations to organize drainage and water supply points for other bathroom equipment.

The order of performing work on assembling a toilet installation with your own hands is based on following step-by-step instructions, which define the following main stages:

determining the location of a plumbing fixture with a frame or block system;
installation and fastening of all structural elements;
supply and connection of communications;
checking all systems.

Negative aspects of installing the installation

The desire to give the bathroom a presentable appearance pushes the disadvantages of hanging equipment into the background. The disadvantages include the following points:

The installation process is much more complicated than installing a conventional toilet with a compact tank. An accurate calculation of the equipment size is required. Mistakes can lead to complex and expensive repairs, including destruction of the bathroom walls.
Installation breakdowns are expensive and difficult to fix. Therefore, it is recommended to buy products from well-established brands in the market. Branded wall-hung sanitary equipment and its installation cost the consumer almost half as much as conventional standard toilets.
If it is necessary to repair a toilet with an installation, you almost always have to break the integrity of the wall and re-finish it.
If the wall-mounted toilet is broken, you will most likely have to resort to the services of a professional to repair it. This may take quite a long time. Whereas a conventional floor-standing device can often be repaired on its own by replacing the faulty part.
To correctly calculate the size and installation of mounted plumbing equipment, professional knowledge and work performance skills are required. Trying to do all this yourself can be very expensive.

To install a toilet with installation, it is better to invite experienced craftsmen who can guarantee high-quality work. The services of specialists cost some money, but eliminating errors due to inept actions can be much more expensive.

Final stage

After completion of the work, the entire structure is again checked for leaks. To do this, simply fill the tank with water until it is completely filled. Then the water is poured into the toilet, observing whether there is a leak and what the pressure is.

The most likely possible problems and how to fix them.

If leaks are found on the toilet bowl, the cause may be improper installation of the sealing gaskets. They are easy to adjust or change. You should turn off the water, unscrew the fasteners connecting the toilet to the supporting structure, and check the gaskets.
If the toilet is loose, tighten the bolts securing it to the installation. Care must be taken not to damage the threads or crush the ceramics.
If there is a weak discharge of water into the sewer, then you should make sure that the slopes of the pipes are sufficient, as well as the smoothness of their turns.

The best manufacturers of toilet installations

When choosing an installation, you need to decide on the manufacturer. Currently in the TOP market are:

Geberit (Switzerland) . There are several product lines. From budget lines to more premium ones. Flush plates with a simple design, compact and aesthetically pleasing. It is better to buy the installation and key as a set, taking into account their compatibility. One of the best installation manufacturers;

Grohe (Germany) Has high characteristics in the middle price segment.

Viega . The entire line is standard, but there is a model for installing corner toilets. The frames are made of durable thick-walled square pipe;

Tece . Premium segment. A large selection of universal keys for installation, suitable for any model of the brand. Adjusting the barrel relative to the frame. Its volume is 10 liters.

Ideal Standard is a well-established manufacturer of reliable plumbing products. Other brands specialize in producing installations.

Places in the ranking are distributed from the best of the best to simpler models.

Installation of the structure

To install a built-in toilet structure with your own hands, fasteners are used, both included in the product kit and purchased separately (for example, elongated studs for mounting a toilet bowl). They must be taken with a margin of safety, as they will experience significant mechanical loads.

Using a puncher, holes are made on the pre-marked marks for installing spacer dowels. Any installation model has fastenings in the vertical and horizontal planes.
Using the bolts and adjusting nuts included in the kit, the installation body is installed and fixed.

It should be given the correct spatial position with appropriate fasteners responsible for horizontal or vertical orientation. When exposing the body of a plumbing product, use a building level.

Adjustment of the horizontal part of the toilet installation is carried out by the legs of the supporting frame, which are fixed in a certain position at the required height.

The vertical adjustment of the body is carried out by adjusting the anchor, which should then be securely locked.

When installing the equipment frame, it is necessary to maintain special precision and ensure high-quality fixation. The normal operation of plumbing fixtures without swaying under load, which can result in damage to both the ceramics itself and the panel covering the installation, largely depends on how reliable it is.

Myths about hanging plumbing

Although primitive flushing blocks were used back in Soviet times, people are still afraid to install modern block plumbing structures in their apartments. Below are some misconceptions about installations and wall-hung toilets.

Myth No. 1 . A wall-hung toilet may fall under the weight of a person.

Installations are usually secured with 12 mm thick bolts. The frame structure itself and the support rods are designed for a weight of 400-450 kg. The only reason for a toilet to fall can be the collapse of the wall to which it is attached.

Myth No. 2 . It is necessary to dismantle the decorative box if the cistern breaks down.

The drain button frame is secured with latches and can be easily removed. Underneath there is a hole for connecting a water hose with a compact tap. Within this “installation” window on the front wall of the tank there is also a float mechanism, which can be unscrewed from the tank by hand and repaired without dismantling the box.

Myth No. 3 . A wall-hung toilet takes up minimal space.

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

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

The sizes of components are standardized by most manufacturers, because repairable models have priority when purchasing. In plumbing stores, picking up a broken part will not be difficult. In addition, you can repair the installation yourself.

Preparation for installation

Necessary tool

It begins with the acquisition of the necessary components, preparation of the workplace and tools. A hammer drill will be needed to make holes in concrete or brick, and a float level (convenient size 50-60 cm) to control the vertical and horizontal orientation of the product in space. You will also need: a set of wrenches, a hammer, drills or drills with carbide tips, possibly pliers, screwdrivers, a construction knife . To accurately determine the location where the toilet installation will be installed, you will also need a pencil and a tape measure . Having everything you need on hand will speed up the assembly process and save your nerves.

What to consider

At the preparation stage you need to consider:

the accuracy of the niche marking and its suitability for installing the purchased model of equipment;
It is better to purchase a toilet-installation product as a whole set in order to save yourself from selecting or adjusting equipment elements to match their sizes, from mismatching inlet and outlet holes;
When purchasing, carefully check the completeness of the parts (supporting frame, flush keys, flush cistern, presence of adapters, fixing elements);
the choice of fastening method for a block or frame structure, on which the successful implementation of installation work depends;
You can select a model with electronic control and a convenient location of buttons for draining. Such products provide special comfort in subsequent use.

Taking measurements and markings

The diagram of the marking stages for installing a toilet is presented in the following parts:

a center line is drawn on the wall, passing through the center of the future installation;
the clearance between the wall and the structure is measured (it must be at least 15 mm, more is allowed);
marks are drawn on the wall where the tank for draining the water will be located;
marks are left on the floor, as well as on the wall where the structure will be fastened.

Accuracy and attention to detail at the preparatory stage will greatly facilitate subsequent assembly activities.

Conclusions and useful video on the topic

In the video below you can hear advice on choosing an installation for a toilet directly from a specialist:

Wall-hung toilets and other hygienic appliances combine reliability, convenience and attractive appearance. With their help, you can transform the interior of any sanitary room, giving it airiness and elegance.

If you have anything to add, or have any questions about choosing an installation for the toilet, you can leave comments on the publication. The comment form is in the lower block.

Standard dimensions

The most significant parameter is the depth of the installation - it determines how comfortable it will be to use the toilet (there should be at least 60 cm of free space in front of it). The type of installation is decisive here:

Block ones have a depth of 10 to 15 cm.
Frame - from 15 to 30 cm.

Thus, in the presence of a permanent wall, block installation is most preferable. If it is used, the free space in front of the toilet is approximately 15 cm larger than when using a conventional floor-mounted compact toilet. That is, the toilet becomes more spacious not only visually - due to hiding communications - but also actually.

In addition, block installation also costs much less than frame installation.

The reader may have a question: how does a drain tank fit into a structure of such a small thickness? The thing is that tanks for wall-hung toilets are made flat, that is, they have a small thickness - about 90 cm, but have increased width and height. The width of the tank can reach 50 cm. Accordingly, the width of the installation is usually about the same - 50 - 60 cm.

height: for a frame installation it is 102 – 140 cm, for a block installation – 80 – 100 cm;
level above the floor of the sewer pipe to which the toilet is connected: 22 cm;
the level above the floor of the mounting holes for the studs on which the toilet is hung: usually 32 cm, but this height can be changed using adjustable legs;
distance between studs (center-to-center): 18 or 23 cm (standard for the vast majority of models).

At the specified height of the studs, the toilet rim is at a height of 40 cm above the floor, which is considered optimal for the average user.

The bowl itself, although it seems miniature, has quite ordinary dimensions:

length: for “mini” models - up to 54 cm, “standard” - from 55 to 60 cm, “maximum” - 70 cm;
width: 30 – 40 cm;
height: 30 – 40 cm.

What to look for when purchasing, how to decide on the installation location

The choice of box size for installing a toilet largely depends on the dimensions of the toilet room: if the room has a large area, you can consider installing not only a built-in toilet, but also a bidet. In this case, it is better to stop at buying a frame system. If the bathroom has a solid wall, a block design is suitable. For a bathroom with a non-standard configuration, or for a small space, experts recommend choosing corner models.

Based on this, we can conclude that the choice of box sizes for installing a toilet should be made not only depending on personal preferences, but also in accordance with basic installation standards. The size of the installation of the built-in toilet should be such that there is a distance of more than 60 cm from the edge of the bowl to the nearest wall or surface of other furniture. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to position your feet, because they will rest against the restriction.

Standard installation - suitable for installation in rooms with no size restrictions

For more comfortable use, the same distance should be left on the sides of the toilet. The bowl is fixed at a distance of 18-20 cm from the installation body. This indicator must be taken into account when calculating the size of the toilet with the installation in the plan, which is drawn up before purchasing the entire system.

Before making a purchase, you need to study the floor plan, choose the right installation location and, taking this into account, choose the type of structure:

If you plan a standard installation near a side or central wall, you can purchase both block and frame types of installation from any manufacturer.
To install the system under a window or in a room with a small height, for example, on the attic floor, you need to choose installation sizes of built-in toilets that are reduced in height - 82-85 cm.
If you need to install devices on both sides of the structure, purchase an installation with a double-sided fastening type, which allows you to fix two independent plumbing items.
In a bathroom in which the installation of several hanging products is planned, a linear type of installation with a width of 115 cm or more should be installed.

Before choosing an installation model, you must find out where it will be installed

The installation frame is mainly rectangular in shape, and you need to choose an option that corresponds to the parameters of the niche. If the dimensions of the box for installing the toilet are larger than the structure itself, the remaining space must be filled with some kind of building material that has soundproofing characteristics. A universal option is to choose a frame whose upper part is adjustable, which allows you to adjust the size of the installation to a box of any size.

To ensure that your purchase brings pleasure for a long time and does not require repairs, you should purchase products only from trusted manufacturers. In this case, you will have to overpay a little for the brand, but most often this decision is justified. Based on reviews from plumbers and users, we can highlight the following companies that have proven themselves best in the installation market:

Geberit company, which began producing unique seamless cisterns. The company has thought out such sizes of installations that allow installation despite any difficulties, for example, in the case of closely located pipes.
Grohe is a proven German manufacturer specializing in the production of sanitary ware items. All installation frames are made of high-quality metal and treated with an anti-corrosion coating.
Viega is another German company that mainly produces installation frames. As a rule, the kits produced by the company do not contain toilets.

For more comfortable use, you need to leave a distance on the sides of the toilet

In addition to these companies, there are a large number of other manufacturers that have a good reputation in the Russian market:

TECE;
Roca;
AM PM;
Cersanit.

PS

And one more piece of advice: often plumbers, without even asking clients, independently choose the installation to install based on their own interests. It’s good when a plumber installs high-quality installations. But very often the opposite happens.
