WC Selection Guide and Recommendations

Things To Consider When Choosing a WC

One of the essential parts of toilets and bathrooms just like washbasins and bathroom sanitaryware, WCs come in many different sizes, styles, and colors. In the selection of these products equipped with smart functions to make life easier, many factors from design features to the width of the usage area, from the production materials to the preferred color should be considered. When it comes to WCs, finding the right material with a durable and long-lasting design is also important.
 

Modern User-friendly WCs

Users primarily pay attention to the design and functional features of a WC. While elegant and stylish designs give an aesthetic look to bathrooms, innovative features offer smart solutions. Classical oval designs or sharp designs reflecting a more modern style allow you to decorate the bathroom as desired. In addition to the white color option, these products also come in colors such as glossy or matte black, mink, gray, and red. Those who like simple and elegant designs can take a look at the WC models in the Equal collection of VitrA. WCs differ in terms of their functional features as well as their appearance. Rimmed and rimless WC models deliver the water from the flush tank to the WC in different ways. Rimless models, which are quite popular today, prevent the reproduction of microorganisms. This way, the WC stays hygienic and easy to clean. In addition to rimless WCs, ceramic products also offer hygienic solutions. New generation ceramic materials and coatings prevent the accumulation of water and dirt on the surface. Always offering a smooth surface, ceramic models are easy to clean.

What are the Different WC Types?

There are different WC models such as close-coupled and wall-hung. The traditional close-coupled WCs are mounted on the floor. Carrying capacity is not important for these products, the weight that the floor can carry can also be carried by the WC. Wall-hung WC models, also known as concealed cisterns, are preferred especially in bathrooms decorated in a modern style with new generation designs and stand out by taking up only a small space. These models do not touch the floor and are mounted on the wall. The bathrooms decorated with these cisterns can be cleaned more easily. Adding touch-free flush plates or mechanical control panels to wall-hung WC makes these products much more useful. In cases where the plumbing system of the bathroom is not suitable for wall-hung WC pans, traditional close-coupled models are preferred while concealed cisterns can be used to make the space look more spacious.
 

WC Sizes and Measurements

One of the important points in choosing a WC is the size. Both the width of the bathroom and the measurements of the product are important. Although WC measurements vary according to the design, the average width of a standard product is 35 cm, the length is 50-60 cm, and the height is 40 cm. However, these measurements may vary depending on whether it is a concealed cistern or not. The sizes of the products offered for the disabled and children might vary.

Those with a small bathroom may prefer wall-hung WC models (approximately 50 cm long) to save space. The Sento collection, on the other hand, may be suitable for small bathrooms by offering wall-hung WC models with concealed cisterns. The traditional close-coupled WCs, which are longer than the wall-hung models, have a length of 60 cm. In these products, the cistern is placed above the WC.
