What is the difference between a flush toilet and a siphon toilet? My family chose the wrong one, no wonder the toilet keeps getting clogged!


Nowadays, there is a toilet in every household. As for toilets, they are generally divided into two types: siphon and direct flush. Many people don't know what these two terms are for when they first hear them. But this is crucial for us. When decorating, it's best to first understand clearly, otherwise if the decoration is wrong, it will be very troublesome and seriously affect our lives. Now let me analyze the functions of siphon and flush toilets for you.

1、 The difference between direct flush toilets and siphon toilets

The siphon toilet has improved the problem of loud noise in the direct flush toilet and has strong drainage capacity, which has won the market very well. If it is an old house decoration, it is necessary to check whether there is a water trap in the drainage pipeline. If there is a water trap, it is necessary to choose the direct suction toilet. Nowadays, there is generally no problem with using the siphon toilet in new buildings.

2、 Which is better, a direct flush toilet or a siphon toilet?

In the current bathroom market, siphon style occupies an absolute mainstream position. The biggest advantage of a siphon type is its low flushing noise, also known as quietness. However, due to the use of the instantaneous strong kinetic energy of water flow, the sound of the impact on the pipe wall is not very pleasant. If people want the flushing process to be as short as possible after going to the toilet, direct flushing can have an immediate effect, while the suspension process during siphon flushing is also quite embarrassing. But the siphon type water seal is high, so it is not easy to smell.

No matter what flushing method of toilet is chosen, there will always be some worries and worries. From a water-saving perspective, the direct flushing type is definitely slightly better, but if there are elderly people in the home who are quiet, it should be considered. Although the combination of water conservation and flushing is not perfect in the siphon type, its development in the domestic market is already very mature, and it is quiet and odorless. So the final choice of style should also be based on lifestyle habits, choose the product features that you value the most, and then purchase based on other factors such as appearance.

3、 Precautions for purchasing toilets

1. In addition to choosing the flushing method, learn to distinguish the quality of the toilet when choosing, and choose a toilet that you are satisfied with

2. Touch the surface of the toilet with your hand to feel if there are any unevenness. The delicate and smooth glaze of the toilet indicates that the quality of the toilet is relatively good.

3. Toilets are fired at high temperatures to achieve the requirement of full porcelain. Some mid to low end toilets do not achieve full porcelain due to cost issues. At the same time, several types of toilets can be weighed, and the heavier the toilet, the higher the degree of full porcelain, the better.

4. Toilets, like tiles, have a water absorption rate. If you tap lightly with your hand, if the sound is dull and hoarse, the product will be inferior.

5. When selecting a toilet, you can reach your hand into the drain to check if the interior is smooth. If it is very rough, it indicates that the interior surface is not glazed, and this type of toilet is very prone to water leakage.

Based on the above introduction, I believe everyone should also know which type of toilet to choose in home decoration. Generally, more families will choose siphon toilets.
