What should you pay attention to when choosing a toilet?

　　1. Toilets have two common pit spacings: 305mm and 400mm. These are the distance between the center of the toilet outlet and the wall behind you. Don't mistake this, as the toilet won't install correctly and will need to be rebuilt by removing tiles. In short, whether it's 305mm or 400mm, getting these two dimensions right will make the toilet easy to buy. You'll feel comfortable purchasing a toilet you like.

　　2. Does the toilet conserve water? There are two types of toilets: standard and water-saving, each with different water consumption requirements. Standard toilets consume ≤9 liters; water-saving toilets consume ≤6 liters.

　　3. Toilets on the market typically range in size from 30cm to 50cm. This is the standard width for toilets; height is less important. The standard is approximately 70cm in width and 70cm in length, with a minimum of 62cm. This is the industry standard size. These toilets are custom-made based on the size of the user's bathroom. Additionally, users should also measure the toilet's outlet diameter, which plays a crucial role in installation. Generally speaking, the sewage outlet diameter is between 30 cm and 40 cm, or 35 cm. These are all ways to measure toilet size specifications.

　　4. The toilet lid is made of ceramic, which includes a porcelain body and glaze. A good toilet has high porcelain properties, hardness, and density, which results in a heavier toilet. Therefore, for toilets of the same specifications, if weighed by hand, a heavier toilet will have a higher quality porcelain body.

　　5. The water component of the toilet tank is inconvenient to use. The water component is the key actuator and the heart of the tank. We can see it by opening the tank lid. Its main function is to automatically store water when not in use and to drain it smoothly under our control during flushing. It determines the lifespan and comfort of the tank and even the toilet.

　　6. Toilet flushing methods can be divided into direct flush and siphon flushing, and their principles differ significantly. Direct flush toilets have simple flushing pipes, short paths, thick pipe diameters, a quick flushing process, and good water conservation. Disadvantages include a loud flushing sound, a small water storage area, and the tendency for scale to form. They also have poor odor control and a small water cover. Siphonic toilets have a low flushing noise and easily flush away dirt adhering to the toilet bowl surface. They have good odor control and are available in a variety of options. Disadvantages include high water consumption and a narrow pipe diameter, which can easily clog.

　　7. The price range of a toilet is determined by brand. Branded toilets vary in price, with smart toilets being more expensive, ranging from three to five thousand yuan to tens of thousands.

　　8. Quietness is also a factor in choosing a toilet. While toilets may use a silent flushing mechanism, changing the flushing method is also a good strategy. Siphonic jet flushing not only reduces noise but also improves flushing effectiveness.
