Installation of devices in the bathroom can deliver a lot of trouble. This is due to the water supply system to which the structure needs to be connected. Modern devices not only make the bathrooms more attractive, but also more comfortable. Siphon is one of the elements of the drain, without which the correct functioning of the equipment, including the bidet, is impossible.
Varieties
This device is found in several types:
- bottle;
- tubular.
Depending on the material, it can be:
- plastic;
- steel;
- brass;
- From a flexible corrugated hose, which consists of plastic.
A bottle view is characterized by the fact that it has a form of a simple bottle. These models are more efficient and cheap, which makes them more profitable in operation. In the bottom of these siphons there are objects that fell there randomly.
The tubular species is made in the form of the letter S. Its design is complex, which makes the installation more difficult.
The material may be selected at the discretion of the buyer. Most often, people choose plastic models, because it is longer and more functional.
Which to choose?
Make the selection based on the size you need. Siphons for the bidet differ from any other siphones by having large dimensions. For this reason, lay a bidet in a small bathroom will be problematic.
Pay attention to the bandwidth. It should be equal to the velocity of wastewater, which will merge.
To attach the siphon, usually use threads, but there are also such types of bidets that provide for other types of fastening.
To pick up an instance for yourself, do not forget about things like: option of installing a bidet (open or indoor), the size of the sewer, the type of drain and its diameter.
Some manufacturers (Viega, Kludi, Bandini, Begerit, Alcaplast) have a siphon in which not one, but several hydraulic assets. Such models to a minimum eliminate the sewer smell. They look like a snake. They are often used with indoor installation.
If the installation is carried out in an open form (when all internal parts can be seen), then metal options will look more attractive. They may have a chrome-plated type of coating.
Installation type should also be chosen at its discretion. Plastic siphons are less attractive, and people try to hide them with the help of a decorative case. Models with a chrome surface will give the bathroom elegance. Such can be safely installed when installed.
If you buy a siphon in the store, then Make sure the documentation is available. This technique should be high quality and serve you long so that you often do not change it.
At the moment there are quite a few models that differ in price.
