If you’re looking to upgrade your bathroom experience with a Toto Washlet, you’re in for a treat. This innovative bidet seat provides an array of features, including water temperature control, adjustable spray settings, and heated seating – all designed to enhance personal hygiene. In this article, we’ll walk you through the installation process step-by-step to help you transform your bathroom into a space of luxury and comfort.
Tools and Materials Needed:
– Toto Washlet (bidet seat)
– Water supply hose
– T-Valve adapter
– Phillips-head screwdriver
– Wrench
– Measuring tape
– Flathead screwdriver
Step 1: Turn off the water supply
Before beginning the installation process, it is crucial to turn off the water supply to your toilet. Locate the shutoff valve on the wall behind your toilet and switch it off by turning it clockwise.
Step 2: Remove your old toilet seat
Using a flathead screwdriver, remove the bolts located at the rear of the toilet bowl that hold down your existing toilet seat. Gently lift off your old seat and set it aside.
Step 3: Install the Washlet mounting bracket
Measure out and center the provided Washlet mounting bracket on your toilet bowl using a measuring tape. Securely fasten it in place with the appropriate screws using a Phillips-head screwdriver.
Step 4: Attach the Toto Washlet to the mounting bracket
Slide the Toto Washlet carefully onto the mounting bracket until it locks into place. You should hear an audible click when properly engaged.
Step 5: Install the T-Valve adapter
Remove your existing water supply hose by disconnecting it from both your toilet tank and shutoff valve. Attach one end of the provided T-valve adapter onto your shutoff valve and connect your existing water supply hose to the other.
Step 6: Connect the Washlet water supply hose
Using a wrench, connect the supplied Washlet water supply hose to your T-Valve adapter’s open port. Ensure that it is tightened securely to prevent any leaks. Connect the loose end of this hose to the inlet on your Toto Washlet.
Step 7: Turn on the water supply and test
Slowly turn on the water supply to your toilet by turning the shutoff valve counterclockwise. Check for any leaks around connections and ensure that your Toto Washlet is working correctly by operating its various functions.
Step 8: Adjust settings for personal preferences
Refer to your Toto Washlet’s user manual to customize settings like spray pressure, water temperature, and seat temperature according to your personal preferences.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed your Toto Washlet. Enjoy a more comfortable and hygienic bathroom experience with this luxurious upgrade.
