Now on sale a large number of various models of toilets. Each of them, depending on the design, requires a certain placement of pipes in the bathroom and an appropriate size of installation space. Therefore, when choosing, you should pay attention to some plumbing details. For example, a toilet with floor installation Vista has a slanted drain and a single drain. This release option is very convenient to use and install. The advantages of the model can best be described by consumers who have installed such a unit at home, as well as photographs.
The Vista compact toilet is a universal floor model with a drain tank, which is attached to the shelf of the bowl. Compacts - classic version, which is always in trend. They are the simplest and most convenient to install, further maintain, and are the best in price. The main advantage of compacts is the ability to replace one part if it is damaged, rather than the entire toilet.
The package includes:
Cersanit Vista - floor standing toilet, that is, it is attached with special plumbing dowels directly to the floor. This model is very popular among consumers. It is easy to use and very reliable.
Toilet Cersanit Vista
The tank is attached to the bowl almost closely, which makes the device more compact. The flush in this toilet model is circular or reverse - this is ensured by directing water jets along a certain path through special channels. This type of flush guarantees very high-quality cleaning from impurities, because the water completely washes the entire bowl, and not a specific area, as happens in the case of a direct direction.
Advice. When choosing a toilet, you must pay attention to the drain, the hose, and the design as a whole. This will help you save a lot of money and make your design dreams come true.
The flush in the Cersanit Vista toilet is controlled using a push-button mechanism. This model has one button, that is, a single drain. It is pressed inward, which is considered a more reliable mechanism than a push-button mechanism. Each flush takes about 6 liters of water.
Insignificant noise when filling the tank with water is ensured by the lower supply - when it enters, the water flows like a fountain, rather than pouring from above.
The inside of the Vista model has a visor bowl, sloping towards the outlet. In such a bowl, sewage does not linger, but immediately goes into the drain and the possibility of splashing water during flushing is eliminated.
The release design is considered the most important parameter when deciding on the choice of toilet. An outlet is a drain hole that connects to the sewer system. The release option in the Vista model is oblique - the pipe is located at an angle of inclination. Thanks to this, the toilet is less likely to clog and is connected to any type of drain. The design of Cersanit Vista toilets is quite simple.
Advice. When installing compact toilets, it is better to first place the tank on the bowl and then connect it to the riser.
In the manufacture of toilets at Cersanit production, two types of ceramics are used:
Toilet bowl
Finished plumbing products are additionally coated in layers with a special glaze, which protects them from damage. The mechanism in the tank, through which the drain occurs, is made of high-quality plastic.

Good day, dear readers!
In my case, I had to do the installation of the toilet myself, a second time, because it was necessary to lay tiles on the bathroom floor.
Therefore, first it was necessary to dismantle the toilet.
Everything turned out very simply: the corrugated sewer pipe was disconnected, as well as the flexible hose supplying water.
An important point, since the house is far from new, and the sewer system is actively used, it is extremely important to close the sewer hole to prevent air with carbon dioxide and other poisonous gases from entering the room.
For this purpose, a plastic bag was securely placed on the corrugated pipe.
The next stage is marking the installation site. For this purpose, the second tile from the wall was chosen on the floor.
This distance allows you to freely dismantle and install the water meter on the left side, and also allows you to operate the toilet in close proximity to the bathtub on the right side and connect communications from behind (connecting a corrugated sewer pipe).
Since the color of the floor tiles is not conducive to marking with a pencil or marker,
then red electrical tape was chosen for this purpose. It adheres well to ceramic tiles and stands out perfectly on the surface.
The toilet was pre-installed in the intended installation location, with insulating tape applied along the bottom of the body.
White spots were applied to the tape (you can use glue) to indicate the places corresponding to the location of the holes on the toilet body.
In the presented case, the attachment to the floor of the toilet body is internal, not external.
Toilet installation Cersanit was carried out using a mounting kit for ceramic products included with the toilet.
Here is a diagram of the installation procedure.
The next step is drilling holes for mounting to the floor.
To this end, first ceramic tile was drilled using a screwdriver and a ceramic drill (diameter 10 mm), and then the hole was deepened into concrete base floor using a hammer drill and a concrete drill (diameter – 10 mm).
The holes in the floor were made so that they were opposite the side holes on the bottom of the toilet body, and also to provide the required distance, calculated for the total thickness of the wall of the lower part of the body and the plastic fastener.
Plastic dowels from the kit were placed in the finished holes and then attached to the floor plastic corners using self-tapping screws and an open-end wrench.
Now you can install the toilet on top and secure its body with two self-tapping screws using a Phillips screwdriver.
Nuance: The toilet must be installed with sealant. That is, between the tiles and the toilet, along the entire perimeter of the contact between the toilet and the floor tiles, it is necessary to apply sealant using a gun. Thanks to the sealant, water will not flow under the toilet and the toilet will “sit” tightly in its seat.
Thus, the work came to an end. It should be noted that toilet installation do it yourself requires some experience with ceramic materials so as not to damage the tile.
The final stage is the installation of a flexible hose for water supply and corrugated pipe. Before installing the corrugated pipe on the toilet drain hole, you must first lubricate the joints with plumbing glue-sealant.
The installation of the toilet on your own was successfully completed.
Materials and tools used during installation:
Hammer;
Cersanit kit for fixing the toilet to the floor;
Drill for glass and ceramics (d = 10 mm);
Drill for concrete (d = 10 mm);
Screwdriver;
Crosshead screwdriver;
Open-end wrench;
Latex gloves;
Sealant gun;
Silicone adhesive sealant.
Most people are sure that assembling a toilet is a very complex process, and only professional plumbers should do this work. This is wrong. All these manipulations can be done independently at home, following some tips and recommendations.
As a rule, the toilet is installed on a solid concrete or tile base. Fasten using dowels, special screws, bolts or glue. Often, a rubber or silicone gasket is placed between the base and the compact itself. More precise fastening methods and a diagram for assembling the toilet are described in the manufacturer's instructions, which come with the compact.

A bathroom is a room with high humidity and increased requirements for cleanliness. Therefore, it is very often decorated with tiles. Installation on a tiled floor is carried out quickly and without the use of special tools. Let's figure out what methods are used for fastening and how to do everything correctly.
Important point. If the brackets are plastic, and this is most often the case, when installed on uneven surface they become deformed over time. will begin to move to the side or wobble. Therefore, even before installation begins, it is necessary to trace the horizontal line and, if necessary, place leveling plates or something similar.
The only option for fixing sanitary ware where drilling is impossible. Only equipment with a large volume sole is suitable for this. Pay attention to this when purchasing.
Sometimes it is glued to cement. This is an outdated, rather labor-intensive method that does not always give the desired result. Let's look at how to properly install a toilet on a tiled floor using glue.
You cannot use the equipment for at least a day, during which time it will completely harden. The exact information can be found by reading the manufacturer's instructions.
Sometimes inexperienced craftsmen make mistakes that spoil all the work done. Let's look at the most common ones.
