How to choose the right bidet

The Bidet: is a sit-down wash basin that is usually made from vitreous china and designed to resemble the shape of the toilet. It is placed next to the toilet in the bathroom, in order to encourage personal hygiene. It is generally 15 – 15 ½ inches high. A combination toilet/bidet is available if a higher seat is re...quired. There are four basic types of bidets:Over the rim – this is fitted with a standard tap and the bowl is filled with water in the same way that you fill a sink. This is the cheapest and simplest type to install.
Heated rim (flushing rim) – this has hot and cold handles on top but the water enters the bowl beneath the rim of the basin.
Spray – the more popular types of bidets are equipped with a spray which provides a gentle shower. The spray may be vertical or horizontal. The vertical has a fountain jet in the centre of the bowl and the horizontal has a special over the rim spout that delivers a horizontal stream of water.
Combination – some models combine the heated rim and a vertical spray option in the one unit. Bidets come in a range of styles from the traditional to the contemporary. They are designed to complement the toilet. Be aware that a bidet with a wide, rounded ledge is generally the most comfortable. It should be installed so that there is plenty of room at the sides for your legs, and at the back for the knees. This may mean leaving a gap of at least four inches between the wall and the back of the bidet. The bidet allows the user to control the water temperature.
