Please note that premium models are several times more expensive than budget devices, but their service life is 7-10 years or more.

Design features of the equipment

We will examine in more detail which models of structures are suitable for specific types of objects of various sizes.

Metal structures are conventionally divided into the following types:

  • angular;
  • bilateral;
  • linear.

And also, depending on the parameters, the systems are distinguished standard sizes and low. The latter are intended for the arrangement of bathrooms, which have very modest dimensions.

In rooms where there are no restrictions on the installation depth and size, standard type equipment can be built into the wall.

Standard type installation equipment
As a rule, systems of standard dimensions have an installation height in the range of 1100-1300 mm, a depth of 120-350 mm, a width of 350-500 mm. Most often they are installed in combined bathrooms and spacious toilets, where the installation of compact devices is not essential

Corner systems - A practical solution for small toilets where there is a need to save space and set the toilet in a corner.

For this, special equipment with angular fastening is used, which is more securely fixed to the wall and floor in several places.

Low installation in the bathroom
If it is necessary to install equipment with a limited installation height in an apartment or house, preference should be given to low designs

The height of low equipment does not exceed 800-850 mm, which allows you to place suspended plumbing under a window or in another convenient place.

Modern devices are equipped with either mechanical drain or touch. The water is drained using the button in 2-3 modes - partial, full descent, or by the START / STOP method.

Touch control is considered more hygienic, since it does not require the touch of a hand on the mechanism. The contactless button has an elegant appearance, but the cost of such devices is much higher.

      From Russian except Melana. And European ones are quite affordable and of high quality. Look towards Cersanit Delfi Leon and Grohe Rapid SL. I think the price should suit you.

      China is also different: it is either famous brands with manufacturing facilities in the Middle Kingdom or local companies. Of course, there is no trust in the latter, since I have not seen good plumbing from the Chinese for export.

      There are many Russian manufacturers of toilet installations, but of the ones I have tested, I can single out the following: IDDIS, AlcaPlast, Aniplast (SantekhBryansk). I would recommend options from Aniplast as optimal in terms of price / quality ratio. You can consider Cersanit - a European brand that has production facilities in Russia. I can’t say anything about other manufacturers that are represented in the Russian Federation, since I had no experience working with them.
