Ever since human beings started organizing their dwelling places by putting a
well-planned system in place, the need for toilets must have been more
evident than most other things. With the first toilet being invented a long time
ago, we humans have since modernized its design and working, every step of
the way. Whether it’s the sitting position, or technologically superior seat
covers, or the comfort of the kids and the elderly, or some other classification
feature – today we have at least 12 major toilet types that we know are being
every single time you flush. The design of its toilet bowl, as well as the trap
way, help in flush down the waste using less water, with newer designs
making use of no more than 2 liters of water. By reducing the diameter of the
when water flows through it. This is primarily how the design incorporates its
unique water saving feature. This is just the kind of futuristic design being
people.
WC Health
The WC has a unique design that combines the comfort of the water closet
and the health benefits of squatting. As per the standards followed by the
floor standing toilets manufacturers in India, it should weigh around 40 kg,
standing around 22 to 25 cm tall from the ground up. This height is nearly
half of what you see in your average European water closet which happens to
stand 50 to 56 cm from the floor. This toilet also comes coated with an
antibacterial glaze.
design, with the cover used every single time you flush. There is a flush tank
that comes attached, as per the design of Western-style toilet, for one to flush
after every usage. This flush tank can either be plastic-made or be made in
ceramic. By the virtue of the water seal present, there is always a small
amount of water that gets trapped inside the toilet itself; usually, this water
seal height tends to be 50mm. Also, water closets are normally open rim
because the flushing tanks are kept high in position for the flushing to be
effective. These are quite common everywhere in the world, with many

One-piece toilet
These are the type of toilets that do not require a separate flush tank. The
flush tank comes attached with the body of water closet itself. The tank as
well as the body are both made from ceramic and are finally fused together.
This is also why the problem of leakage is minimal in this design. One-piece
toilet design usually comes only with a floor-mount type model. Due to the
fact that the weight of this kind of toilet is relatively more (roughly between
38 and 50 kg), therefore, one rarely ever sees a single-piece toilet made with
well as ‘P’ trap models. This type of toilet is only designed as a closed-rim
model, due to the requirement of maintaining the right water pressure during
flushing.
Two-piece Toilet
Then there are toilets which come in two-piece designs. The normal
European water closet is extended in order to fit a ceramic tank in the toilet
itself. This name comes from the design, as the toilet bowl, and the ceramic
tank, are both coupled by using bolts, giving it the design its name – a
two-piece toilet. A two-piece toilet also goes by the name of the coupled
closet, again owing to its design. Also, the weight of a two-piece toilet is
to ensure that water pressure is just right when it’s time to flush. These are
available in both ‘S’ and ‘P’ trap; floor-mount, as well as wall-hung toilets
Squatting Pan
This is your classic type of toilet, which combined with a corner wash basin,
being replaced by the water closets with modern design, this type is still
considered the healthier option amongst all. The squatting pan is aptly known
as the Indian pan, or Orissa pan, or even Asian pan toilet in a lot of countries
abroad. These squatting pans are made in several designs, with variations
seen from country to country, as you’ll find the Indian, Chinese, as well as
Japanese squatting pans vastly different in their designs from each other.
These kinds of toilets are also found to be comparatively cheaper than most
western water closet style toilets. You can either squat or else sit on this
toilet, howsoever you feel comfortable. These kinds of toilets also go by the
Rimless Toilet
Rimless Toilet is a new model of a toilet which allows an easy cleaning
process as the design completely eliminates the corners one would find in the
rim area of the toilet. This model has been introduced in water closets that are
in an oval or a round shape. There’s a small step included just below the rim
in order to make the flushing ore effective. In the near future, one may expect
to find this model as part of the One-piece toilet design and some other types
too.

Smart Toilet
Smart toilets are exactly how they sound – intelligent by nature. In a
bathroom space that has a chic console wash basin, or a sleek semi-recessed

offered by the seat cover. With a remote that helps set various functions as
well as parameters, a few of the many features that a smart toilet are seat
system – an option between eco flush and full flush, allowing one to set the
temperature and pressure of the water as well as the position of the water jet.
Tornado Toilet
Another one of the newer models among current water closets, the design of
water is supposed to circle in the water closet to make sure the toilet gets
flushed and cleaned easily, making this type of flushing possible only in
round-shaped toilets. You must have seen these in many of the newly-made
