Toilet without cistern: features and types of designs

It is not so easy to buy such a delicate sanitary ware as a toilet, because the main selection criteria are not only attractive appearance, convenience and ergonomics, it is important that the device does not take up much space in the restroom (especially for very small rooms).

The perfect solution is a toilet without a cistern: features and types of designs which allow you to choose the appropriate model for a particular case.

The phrase "toilets without cistern" for many people cause not very correct associations. It is a mistake to assume that this is a sanitary unit with an installation that provides for a cistern hidden behind a partition.That is, the system provides a reservoir for the accumulation of water, which is cleverly hidden from prying eyes behind the facing material.

In fact, the toilet bowlless has a significant difference from the traditional unit. It is a product, in which the water is flushed out without the participation of the tank, and all the cleaning operations are provided by a special device, the drukspuler.

This bezbachkovogo flush system has several advantages.

• Attractive appearance. The toilet looks stylish and modern.
• The design of compact size allows to save space in the room, the lack of a cistern visually expands the room, allows you to install in the toilet additional elements of the decor or the necessary devices, such as a sink for washing hands. This is especially true in apartment buildings with a small bathroom.
• The device does not take time to fill the tank, the water is continuously under a certain pressure is taken from the plumbing system, while ensuring uninterrupted washing of the bowl. Thanks to this property, squash-free systems are most prevalent in public bathrooms, where constant flushing of water is required.

If we talk about the disadvantages, there are even a little more than advantages.

• The need for constant availability of water in the water supply system, with a sudden shutdown will not be even the slightest amount of fluid.
• Drukshpyuler works only in the presence of a certain pressure of water in the existing plumbing system (from 1 to 5 atm), not all owners can boast of such pressure. Therefore, it will be necessary to consider the installation of special pumps.
• The operation of the flush system is somewhat louder than the operation of the built-in tank, although it belongs to class 1 noise.

The development of modern technologies in various fields of production has led to the improvement and modification of various devices, including the cistern. Buttless toilet bowls can be floor mounted, mounted directly on the floor close to the wall, so they are also called attachments. And there can also be pendant or wall variants, such devices are mounted directly to the wall. To flush out the waste, a special no-barred flush system is provided, which can be placed outside of the toilet or hidden inside the wall.The word "drukshpuler" is of German origin and is translated as "the descent of water by pressing on the mechanism."

Both systems: both external and internal, have a good visual perception. Variant of the hidden device drukshpulera externally represents a type of a usual suspended toilet bowl with system of installation. When installing the system by an external method, a small chrome pipe with a built-in water supply button appears to the gaze.

The device design of the drukspuler is quite simple.

Included in the device:

• pressure main valve;
• regulator;
• spring mechanism;
• additional button;
• cavities for pressure stabilization;
• drain pipe.

Such a device has two connection points:

• to the plumbing system;
• to the pipe through which the flush fluid enters the toilet.

These models of flush systems are in demand due to not only the appearance, compact size, but also ease of installation.

Surely, many thought about the principle of the drain system, how the water is drained without a tank. The structure of the drukspühler is not too abstruse, but rather simple.The management of such a drain system is carried out using a special cartridge consisting of two compartments. In the middle of the cartridge is placed a special membrane with a small hole, which contributes to the gradual stabilization of pressure in these two chambers.

At that moment, when the internal pressure of each of the compartments is stabilized, a spring mechanism is triggered, blocking the flow of water, which in the same turn causes the supply of flushing fluid to the toilet, carrying out an automatic flush. The volume of water flushed into the toilet is 3 or 6 liters, although models are currently being developed that can fix the required displacement.

To answer this question, you need to return to the appearance of the device. As mentioned earlier, this is a small piece of lightweight pipe. Naturally, if the pipe is plastic, then the weight of the system will be slightly lighter than that of chrome.From the wall, the pipe protrudes only 50-80 mm, this value is incomparable with the dimensions of any drain tank, not to mention the weight.

The developers of this system have provided for a small stable water flow, thanks to the design of the button, divided into two sectors, one of which is designed for economical erosion.

It is installed and connected to the sewage by an additional toilet with a no-slip drainage system, just like any other sanitary fixture of this kind. But its nuances and some features have a system connection to the water supply. This process is simple, it is quite possible to do it yourself, but it requires compliance with absolute accuracy and sequence of operations.

1. It is most expedient to carry out the installation in a previously existing place, to displace communications is very expensive.But if the installation of the toilet bowl is carried out with movement or simply in a new place, it is necessary, first of all, to bring cold water to the planned point. It is important that the connection point is located on the wall at a height of 90 cm from the floor surface and is centered relative to the toilet bowl.
2. Typically, the water supply is laid in the penalty, which is done on the wall, leaving only a hole for connection. Then the place of stoning is putty. Another important detail when applying water is the correct selection of the pipe diameter. As a result, a stub is installed on the finished pipe, as further manipulations will be carried out only after all the finishing works have been completed.
3. Upon completion of all finishing work in the toilet room can be taken for the installation of bezbachkovoy water supply system. In the next step, it is necessary to connect the drukshpuler with the tap of the water riser, removing the plug from the supplied pipe. The ends of the pipes are fastened with a cap nut, wound first by hand and then tightened with a wrench. The end of the nozzle of the drukshpuler with the nozzle of the toilet bowl is also connected with cap nuts, in this case it is also necessary to use a silicone gasket.

This is the entire installation process, at this stage you can open the water supply and check how the installed system works. In principle, the installation of a bowlless toilet bowl is much faster and easier than installing a conventional toilet bowl with a cistern. This is reflected in the practical approach of German developers. The equipment looks compact, in real life it does not cover a lot of space, it is located in close proximity to the toilet.

As mentioned earlier, special flushing devices are of two types: external or external, as well as internal or hidden in the wall.

Both of these systems are quite compact. The main difference is the different effects on the perception of the general appearance of the room. Of course, it would be logical to assume that, from the point of view of style and design, the option with a system hidden in the wall is better and more practical than an outdoor device, but this view is wrong. Some modern interior styles require the presence of outdoor piping. For example, a remote drukshpyuler perfectly fit into the interior in the style of hi-tech.

Due to the absence of a flush cistern, a drukshpuler is considered an ideal option for installation in small bathroomssmall units, also in the toilets of offices and other various rooms with limited space. In addition, regardless of the size and style of the premises, such systems are widely used in latrines in various public and administrative institutions.
