Wisa installation systems: features and benefits

Comfort and convenience are important in any room, in any room of the apartment and house, including in the bathroom. The installation Wisa, a construction for a suspended toilet from a well-known Dutch company, will help create this comfort.

Features, benefits and installation rules

Installation Wisa is a frame system, which is mounted hanging toilet with all the components.

Like all designs of this kind, it has a number of aesthetic and practical advantages:

  • saves space and is perfect for small bathrooms;
  • reliably hides all communications;
  • frees up the floor, simplifying the cleaning of the room and not interfering with the repair work (for example, when replacing the floor covering).

In addition, the Wisa toilet installation system also has its individual advantages:

  • Originality of design. Above the design projects works a professional team under the guidance of world-famous designers. When developing designs, not only current trends in this direction, but also the wishes of consumers are taken into account.
  • High quality. From the first days of work, the company has been paying particular attention to this aspect, so today it is one of the “business cards” of the brand.
  • Functionality and practicality. The manufacturer ensures that each system fully satisfies customer needs and is as user-friendly as possible.
  • Durability even in conditions of intensive use (in public toilets).
  • Reliability. Frame construction withstands loads up to 450 kg.
  • Low noise when filling a tank and discharge.

The manufacturer also took care of the ease of installation installation: the system can be installed in any place convenient for the user (in the center, in the corner or near the wall of the bathroom). At the same time installation does not require certain skills and additional elements.

Equipment

XS WC Front Basic, Excellent and other models of installations from Wisa is a complete installation kit, consisting of:

  • steel frame, painted by powder coating (durable material can withstand significant loads, and the paint applied on top reliably protects the metal from corrosion);
  • an insulated tank with a double drain system for 3 and 6 liters (there are options for 3 and 9 liters);
  • fasteners for the toilet;
  • valves;
  • sound insulation (an insulating gasket is placed between the wall and the toilet, which makes the sound of water almost indistinguishable).

Additionally, the system is completed (purchased separately) with a flush button. These elements can be single or double mode, round or rectangular.

In addition to installations, Wisa offers consumers toilets, tanks, fasteners and other plumbing equipment. In addition, the assortment is widely represented spare parts for the repair and maintenance of proprietary systems.

Installation

DIY installation of the installation begins with the installation of a steel frame. There are several options for mounting it: to the wall, to the wall and the floor, only to the floor. The choice of method depends on where it is planned to place the sanitary equipment.

Among the advantages of modern frame structures is the ability to adjust the height of the toilet bowl. It is enough to fix the legs of the frame in a comfortable position.

Before installing the frame, carry out the layout of the premises, taking into account the passage of water and sewer pipelines, the size of the installation.

Important: the distance from the intended edge of the system to the wall must be at least 13.5 mm.

The whole installation process consists of several sequential actions, adhering to which you can install the structure yourself:

  • frame installation and fastening;
  • placement, connection and adjustment of the drain tank: the inlet must be connected to the water pipe (experts recommend not to use flexible hoses, since their service life is very short);
  • connecting the device to the sewer;
  • temporary installation of a toilet bowl and testing the operation of the entire system (after testing the bowl is removed again);
  • "Masking" the frame, which is suitable for waterproof plasterboard thickness of 1 cm;
  • where a key is installed to control the discharge of water, install a cuff and cap - this will protect the hole from dust and dirt during the finishing work and will make the drain panel smooth and neat;
  • wall decoration;
  • installation of noise insulation in the place of contact of the toilet with the wall;
  • mount on the toilet bowl studs.

After the general installation work is completed, install the flush button. Experts recommend to give preference to double buttons, with which you can easily change the amount of water draining. A good option would be a panel with a “stop-flush” function, which makes it possible at any time to stop the descent of water.

Useful recommendations

For the most comfortable operation of the installation Wisa when installing, experts advise to consider some subtleties:

  • if the installation includes a technological hatch device, this will simplify the task when the internal device requires repair work or replacement;
  • in case of finishing the walls of the bathroom with tiles, a button or key for draining should be arranged between two tiles or in the center of one tile element;
  • between fasteners when installing the toilet, it is important to observe a distance of 18 or 23 cm.

In addition, throughout all installation work it is necessary to strictly follow the manufacturer's instructions and carefully monitor the installation and reliability of fasteners.

Maintenance and repair

For all branded installations, the manufacturer gives a guarantee of 10 years. In the event of a problem or for system maintenance, it is enough to contact the nearest official service center of the company.

In addition to the guarantee for the equipment, the company producing the Wisa installations guarantees that even after the termination of production of this type of systems, spare parts for them will be made for a quarter of a century.

As for the repairs themselves, it is easiest to invite a professional to carry them out, but if necessary, you can do them yourself.

To repair or replace parts inside the installation, first you need to remove the flush button, since there is a window behind it giving access to the system. To remove it, just press the bottom of the button, slightly move its top, and detach it from the mount.

Further repair instructions include:

  • detaching the frame buttons / keys;
  • disassembly of mounting brackets and partitions;
  • blocking water access;
  • carrying out the necessary work, replacement of worn or damaged items.

After the repair is completed, the button system is also consistently installed in its place.

Reviews

Netherlands-based manufacturer of plumbing equipment and installations Wisa has been working in this sector of the market since 1903 and at one time was one of the first to start making frame systems for toilet bowls. During this time, the company's products received numerous reviews, mostly positive.

Those who have already managed to install branded installations, note the convenience and simplicity of their operation. In addition, the practice has proved that even after a long time, the integrity of the structure is not broken, the components do not become loose, the surface material does not change color and is not scratched.

Another great advantage of Wisa installation systems is that buyers consider their affordable price, the possibility of self-installation without the involvement of craftsmen and the ease of repair work.

Of the minuses, customers note that the groove, located in the central drainage place, quickly turns yellow, and the gasket for the joint of the toilet bowl with the wall does not stand up very carefully. Some also complain about the toilet seat: its inner edges are cut off and not polished, which causes inconvenience when using it.

Another drawback that users pay attention to is the lack of detailed, competent installation instructions: a small brochure is included.
