How to install the wall-mounted toilet during construction

In this way, the design drawing will plan the location of the toilet, the route of the waterway, the design of the false wall, etc. Note that if you want to add a smart toilet seat later in , you need to reserve water and electricity outlets.
02 Installation process
① Determine the height of the water tank : After the water and electricity acceptance and before the masonry enters the site, determine the installation position of the water tank based on the installation requirements and height.
⚠️ knock key points : When installing the wall-mounted toilet, the floor has not been paved with tiles. Therefore, attention should be paid to determining the height of the finished surface to determine the final height of the toilet from the ground.
② Install the water tank bracket: After confirming the location of the water tank , install the water tank bracket,
⚠️Key point: When installing the bracket, attention must be paid to ensuring that it is horizontal and vertical to prevent later installation.
③ Install the water tank and water pipe : After the bracket is installed, install the water tank and water pipe, and connect them with angle valve .

⚠️Key points : Install the tie rod after building the wall. The center of the tie rod should be generally 32-33cm above the ground; the center of the sewage pipe should be generally 22-23cm above the ground. Please refer to the water tank installation instructions.
⑥Laying tiles: After checking that the installation conditions are OK, you can lay tiles. The standard requirements for friendly construction: the tiles on the low wall of the water tank should be neatly spaced; the tile holes for the toilet screw rods should be cut with neat edges without burrs.
Some questions frequently asked by owners
Q1: What is the appropriate height for a wall-mounted toilet?
Many people measure it by the distance from the fixed screw rod to the ground and the distance from the center point of the sewage outlet to the ground. Due to different brands, models and sizes, sometimes it is not very accurate.
After the toilet is installed, it is about the same height as your calf. The bottom of the toilet is 10 centimeters from the ground. Refer to these two data and then calculate the installation height of the water tank bracket based on your own ground treatment.
⚠️Key points: During the construction process, you must communicate with the foreman to confirm the dimensions to avoid forgetting.
Q2: Is the load-bearing capacity of a wall-mounted toilet acceptable? Will it fall off?
Brother Youzan tells you: Don’t be afraid, the load-bearing capacity of the wall-mounted toilet is about 300-400 pounds, so don’t worry.
The actual load-bearing structure of the wall-mounted toilet is hidden on the frame within the wall. There is a hanging screw made of high-density material on each side of the left and right sides, which can fully bear the weight of a person and can be used with confidence.
Q3: Does the wall-mounted toilet need to be installed on a load-bearing wall?
Wall-mounted toilets are generally safe if they are placed on a load-bearing wall. Load-bearing walls cannot dig holes. Generally, false walls are used to hide water tanks and drainage pipes. If there is no wall behind the toilet, or it is not a load-bearing wall, you have to choose a self-standing water tank.
Q4: Is it easy to maintain the wall-mounted toilet later?
In fact, no. Regular workers will usually leave access openings so that the accessories inside the water tank can be taken out directly. Replacement and repair are not troublesome.
However, if there is a problem with the water tank and pipes inside the wall, the wall may need to be demolished. Therefore, for hidden parts, Youzan Brothers recommends that you use high-quality products from big brands, and there will be after-sales protection if there is any problem. In addition, during installation, the master must repeatedly confirm that there is no problem with the water pipe connection.
