In order to maintain the cleanliness of the body in the toilet, they install hygienic shower. Exist different kinds this, at first glance, a common device. A shower built into the toilet is called a bidet, but this type of device is not suitable for everyone. It will be much more convenient to place a small soul separately, fixing it on the wall.
The advantage of a hygienic shower is the ease of its connection. You can connect the device to a water pipe, a sink faucet, and even a toilet.
The shower is very convenient. There are situations when such a device becomes indispensable. With the help of a hygienic shower, it is easy to care for elderly people, handicapped, small children. And for an adult healthy person, it will not be superfluous when caring for intimate areas.
Another advantage is that with the help of a watering can you can wash the toilet bowl and all kinds of dirty items, such as containers for seedlings, shoes, and a dust collector of a vacuum cleaner. Compared to a bidet, a shower is much cheaper, takes up little space, and benefits from it more.
What is included
In the case of buying a hygienic shower, you need to know what is included in the kit. The main elements of the plumbing device are:
- a watering can with a control key (button) on the back side;
- mixer;
- hose;
- watering can holder.
In addition, in comes with clamped gasket, clamping nut, there may be various pipes, adapters. It is necessary to study the accompanying documentation and check the contents of the kit.
The size and design of the watering can are chosen based on personal preferences, but the presence of a control key has great importance. Without it, using the shower will be very inconvenient. An additional advantage of the watering can is that you can control the parameters of the jet, making it dense or rainy with small drops.
The optimal hose length is 1.5–2 meters. This is enough to get from the wall to the toilet. If the room is very small, then a meter is enough. Usually they make rubber or polymer braided hoses. The cheapest plastic hose can break quickly.
The mixer can be two-valve, lever or with a built-in thermostat. Most cheap option- with two valves, adjusting the pressure and temperature with it is quite familiar, but not very convenient. Expensive Japanese premium appliances are always equipped with thermostats. The design can be selected in accordance with the interior of the sanitary room.
Versions
Hygienic showers differ in design, although it is quite simple. There are several options for mounting the device and connecting to pipes.
wall type
The most simple are wall-mounted shower models. The mixer is mounted on pipes passing through the bathroom. The holder is attached to the wall, a watering can is inserted into it, connected through a flexible hose to the mixer. To use such a shower, first open the mixer tap, and then at the right time press the button on the watering can, after which water begins to flow.
built-in type
In built-in models, the mixer is hidden, only the watering can and the control panel are visible. From an aesthetic point of view, this option is better, but it is not always possible to install it. There needs to be room for concealed installation device. Usually the location of the built-in shower is planned in advance at the initial stage of the repair.
Models with thermostat
A thermostat is a device that maintains a constant temperature. The thermostatic shower creates the most comfortable conditions for washing. The temperature is set in advance and then only the device is turned on. Hygienic showers with a thermostat are both hidden and built-in. The device that maintains the temperature is located in the mixer.
For connection to a sink
If the toilet is combined with a bathroom, then next to the toilet there is usually a sink. In this case, it is advisable to connect the shower to it. For the sink, you need to buy and install a special faucet with a tap for a hygienic shower hose. The mixer tap will direct the flow in the right direction. Otherwise, the operation of such a device is no different from the usual wall-mounted type. The advantage of installing it is that when you turn off the shower, the remaining drops of water will fall into the sink, and not on the floor.
What to consider when choosing
When buying a hygienic shower for the toilet, you need to consider it design features. Some models can only be connected to one pipe (hot or cold). In the case of a wall-mounted version, it must be borne in mind that water will constantly drip onto the floor. It must be wiped or an additional drain made in the floor, which is very labor-intensive.
The choice must be made taking into account the material of the mixer. It is best if it is made of brass with chrome surface or stainless steel and ceramic crane box. Bronze appliances are more expensive. Silumin products quickly fail. It is necessary to choose products for which a guarantee is given. The price range of hygienic showers is very wide. You can find models for 1000 rubles and 15 thousand.
Installation Features
After the choice is made and the shower is brought home, the question arises of its installation. The installation of a hygienic shower in the toilet depends on the features of the model. In some cases it is elementary, in others it requires considerable effort and time.
In the case of a wall-mounted open shower, the mixer is fixed to the wall, a hose is connected to it through a gasket, and the hose, in turn, is connected to a watering can. The holder is fixed to the wall last. For flush mounting in the wall, you will have to make a niche. In the general case, the sequence of do-it-yourself work will be as follows:
- wall markings;
- wall chasing;
- pipe laying;
- installation of adapters;
- new wall cladding;
- mixer connection;
- hose connection;
- fixing the watering can holder;
- thermostat temperature setting, if available.
It happens that the pipes are hidden behind plasterboard panels. In this case, slicing will not have to be done. You just need to connect everything correctly.
Note! The installation height of the hygienic shower holder is 60–80 cm from the floor. In this case, the 1.5 m long hose will fold in half, and there will still be a gap.
The height must be chosen so that the hose hangs completely, without touching the floor. At the same time, he should freely reach the toilet. If there are small children in the apartment, then it is better to choose a slightly higher height so that they do not reach the start key.
Advice! It is possible to do so. Sit on the toilet and stretch out your hand. To what point the hand can freely reach, there it is worth fixing the shower.
Pipe connection and wall mounting
If you plan to install a hygienic shower before the repair, then it is better to make it hidden. For wall chasing, a perforator with nozzles is used. A grinder will come in handy, with which you can quickly cut pipes of the desired length or cut grooves in concrete. Soldering iron may be required plastic pipes, if you need to change the direction of the eyeliner.
Shut off the water, connect through tees with pipe gaskets to the water supply. The eyeliner is done with a minimum number of turns and taking into account the vertical and horizontal arrangement (a water socket can be used to rigidly fasten the pipe outlets).
If a thermostat is installed in the mixer, then special attention must be paid to the water connection diagram (which side is cold and which side is hot). In foreign models hot water usually connected on the left, and cold on the right. In the place where the shower is located, pipes are installed for connecting the mixer. The distance between the nozzles must be the same as between the axes of the holes in the mixer and thermostat. If the shower device is different, then this must be taken into account when installing adapters.
After that, you can cover the wall with plaster and connect the mixer with a hose. The nuts are tightened carefully, but without pinching.
The next question is how to fix the holder. This can be done with anchor bolts. First, holes are drilled in the wall with a drill for dowels with a diameter of about 6 mm and a depth of 6 cm. Then the dowels are inserted and the holder is fixed with anchors. This is the most reliable way.
Note! The holder may not be separate, but located on the mixer. In this case, no further drilling is necessary.
When everything is installed, it remains to set up and check the operation of the hygienic shower. You need to turn on the water and see if there are any leaks. After that, you should adjust the water temperature and shut off its supply. When the shower is not in use, the faucet must be closed to relieve pressure on the control valve.
How to install on the sink
Installing a do-it-yourself device for intimate procedures on the sink is even easier. Instead of a conventional mixer, you need to choose and buy a special one, with an additional hole. The question of the installation height is removed here, but the length of the hose is given by the distance from the sink to the toilet. Hose with a watering can is connected to a new mixer - and you're done. Before carrying out work, it is important not to forget to turn off the water.
Cold water connection
If cool water does not scare you when washing, then you can connect the shower to the water supply pipe to the toilet. This is done through a tee to which the hose is connected. Everything is very simple, but wash cold water, especially in winter, to put it mildly, unpleasant. But such a shower can be used to rinse dirty shoes, wash the cat's litter box and other dirty items.
Terms of use
Using a hygienic shower is very simple. You just need to understand that you can press the key on the watering can at the moment when it is above the toilet or sink.
At first, you can try holding the watering can over the sink. Turn on the faucet and set the desired water temperature. Press the shower key, and water will flow not from the tap, but from the watering can.
Hygienic washing procedures are carried out while sitting on the toilet and directing the jet to the right place in the intimate area. When the procedures are completed, the key is released, and the water stops flowing from the watering can. It can be hung in place, and wet skin can be wiped off with specially designated linen, disposable paper towels or ordinary toilet paper folded in several layers.
A hygienic shower can wash the entire bathroom, from the toilet to the shelves for shampoos, toothpaste and other good things. It is especially convenient to do this if a floor drain is provided. If there is no drain, then you just need to wipe the floor with a rag, avoiding the accumulation of moisture. You can wash some items in the sink or over the toilet.
So, using a hygienic shower in the bathroom is a useful thing. It is not difficult to install it, at a cost it is always possible to find an acceptable model. And even a child can be taught to use such a device.

It's practical and convenient solution for personal hygiene, for which you do not need to allocate the area of \u200b\u200bthe bathroom. By installing such a shower on the toilet, you will create the conditions for maintaining intimate hygiene.
Features and purpose
Due to its compactness, the bidet shower can be installed even in a bathroom with a very modest area. That is why it is a frequent choice of clean people living in apartments with an oversized toilet when it is impossible to install a bidet. The design of a hygienic shower includes a watering can with a hose, a holder, and a mixer. There is a button on the watering can that prevents water from flowing out (for water to flow, the button must be pressed).
The main purpose of a hygienic shower is personal hygiene. Its installation is carried out instead of a bidet, since the shower is more advantageous both for its small dimensions and for the lower cost of the device. A hygienic shower simplifies the care of children or seriously ill people. It is convenient for washing in case of rectal diseases or gynecological problems. You can connect such a shower to the bath, and to the toilet, and to the sink, and to the riser.
The disadvantage of the device is the water dripping from the watering can after turning it off. Also, in some cases, the installation has to be repaired, and splashes that appear during use cause additional cleaning. After stopping the use of the shower, you need to wait a little for the remaining water to drain into the toilet.
Usually, after turning on the shower, the water is manually regulated, waiting for the desired temperature, but models are also offered in which the set water temperature is maintained due to the presence of a built-in thermostat. Such a mixer is more economical (no need to wait until the water flows to the desired degree of heating) and safe (there is no risk of getting burned when turned on).

0661750461v, Belarus: It seems that the thing, as it were, is not the most important thing in the bathroom or restroom. And why pay a fabulous price for it? But once I saved money and bought a cheap watering can for a hygienic shower, I could not even imagine how wrong I was. At one fine moment, the button that clamps the water supply loosened and I myself, without knowing it, flooded the neighbors from below and got into a lot of money. After that, I gladly parted with not at all small money and gave it for a watering can from the Groe company. It has been working for me for five years and has never let me down. The holes do not clog, the button works like new, the coating also shines like new. Satisfied. I advise everyone.
