Many
bathrooms do not have the space to incorporate a traditional
bidet, and spending $600 or more an electronic bidet toilet
seat is an expense beyond most people. Bring on the
hand held bidet, ultra hygiene at a fraction
of the cost.
Bidets have
been an integral part of the European culture for many years,
providing the improved cleanliness and hygiene that is close to
the hearts of many Europeans. Strangely, it is only in more
recent times that bidets, and add-on bidet toilet seats have
been embraced on the USA, and in Britain for that matter. In
continental Europe they
are a standard fitting in most
homes.

Installation Of A Hand Held
Bidet
Most
hand held bidet devices are fitted quickly and easily
without the need for a plumber or any special tools. Some
are not plumbed into the pressure fed supply to the toilet, but
pick up the water from the top of the toilet tank, and use a
battery operated pump to provide the water pressure for the
spray. (See Image Above To See Where It Is Fitted Into The
Tank). Others use a small 'T' piece to install your water
supply hose into the pressure fed supply. All that is generally
required is a spanner or two. Everything else should be
included in the kit.
