Step-by-step Instruction + Photos in the interior and Video

Traditional courtyard toilets are still found in rural areas. However, time takes its toll, and more and more often people try to arrange a modern toilet room even in a private wooden house.

Installing a toilet bowl in your own household significantly increases the comfort of living in it.

Direct installation of the toilet is not such a difficult task. But if in a private house neither the toilet itself nor the provision of communications for it was initially provided, then this is what has to be done in the first place.

Choosing a place for the toilet

A ready-made suitable room would be ideal. A small room like pantry is suitable for the device.

It is very good if it is located near the drain well. If a suitable area is available only on the other side of the house, then this already creates additional difficulties.

But even in such a case, the arrangement of a modern toilet is quite possible.

In technical terms, all problems are solvable, however, they may affect the complexity of the work and, accordingly, their cost.

You can equip a combined bathroom, which will accommodate a washing machine, toilet and sink.

The task becomes much more difficult if the premises you need are not available at all.

We'll have to puzzle over how to select a free corner. It's okay if he ends up in the kitchen.

The opening for the entrance is best done in an adjacent wall. Lining, plasterboard, chipboard can be used as the main building material.

Sewerage for installation of a toilet

For transportation of waste sewerage is required, which can be gravity and pressure.

In the first case, a natural discharge into the sewer pipes is used due to a specially provided slope.

In another case, the movement of sewage in the desired direction is provided by a fecal pump installed in the system.

For a private house, you can use any of these options, usually the owners are determined based on specific conditions.

Installing a floor-standing toilet

Most of their own homes have wooden floors. Installing a floor-standing toilet on such a surface may have its own characteristics, and it usually begins with its preparation.

The floor must be reinforced, well leveled and covered with practical material such as linoleum .

If the neck of the pipe is located above the outlet of the toilet, then it will be necessary to provide for its lifting.
As a podium, beams and wide boards are quite suitable. But if we have a concrete base, then this structure will require a different material - cement and brick.

All wood used must be treated with drying oil and painted. This will significantly increase its service life.

Usually, when creating a sewer system in a private house, it is connected directly. A simple collar with a sealing ring is inserted into the pipe, and the toilet outlet is mounted into it. If this does not work out, then a plastic eccentric for the toilet or a corrugated cuff is used.

The simplest is to connect to a local pump with the inlet at the required standard height. When the toilet is in place, it is important to check its connection to the sewer.

After applying the markings, it is removed, and the necessary holes are made in the floor.
Typically, fixtures are included with the fixtures. It includes dowels, decorative washers and self-tapping screws. Then, using a level, the toilet is installed, if necessary leveled, the gaps that appear are sealed with a cement compound. Then, using self-tapping screws, the plumbing is securely fixed and connected to the tank.
