What You Need To Know About A Wall-Mounted Toilet

   A wall mounted toilet is a toilet that is hung from the wall and strategically hides the tank behind the drywall inside the framing. This toilet creates a more open and free flowing space as it sits above the floor and is about 12 inches closer to the wall than a standard toilet would be. This allows for customization as it has the option of adjustable height. Thus, becoming beneficial to any potential buyer as it offers options for those who may suffer from disabilities. This toilet also adds a modern and elegant style to the bathroom while keeping it easy to clean and potentially increases the resale value due to its charming and desired qualities.

   In order to install a wall mounted toilet it does require a type of commitment that some may be unfamiliar with having purchased standards toilets in the past. A wall mounted toilet requires the knocking out of a wall and removing the pipes from where they had previously been located in the floor. The pipe required for this style toilet must be able to run up the wall from the basement which can be very tricky or even impossible in small home remodels and is generally only considered in large remodels or new construction.

   Lastly, a toilet such as this one does not come without a price tag. The cost ranges to about 1,000 dollars without the cost of installation and plumbing which could be double that. Home owners that chose this style tend to know exactly what they want and how they want it. They have a plan and a desire to make it happen. Make sure to be committed and plan your remodel out thoroughly before beginning.


Happy remodeling!
