Most of those "converter" types have this in their instruction sheet-
• Plug the bidet into a grounded outlet and you are now ready to use the Bidet Toilet Seat.
How often do you see a recepticle next to/behind a toilet? So, either you're plumbing for hot water or wiring for power- take your pick!
Wouldn't it just be a lot easier to wipe your !!! better?
True on the wiring. I got around that with some surface mount wiremold from a nearby outlet. On the other subject, there are health conditions that can make wiping "better" a poor choice. I'll not go into that in an effort at keeping from grossing people out.
It is also an environmental issues to some as well. The less toilet paper used the better our environment. And anybody on a septic system knows how much it costs if your septic tanks needs to be emptied or your drain field backs up.
We have a really nice and large master bathroom but the toilet is in a separate room with no room for a bidet. I have always wanted a bidet after living where they are part of every civilized bathroom.
So I've been looking at the portable bidets on line. Then DH reminded me it would be COLD water. No Thank You. He says it would be extremely expensive to run plumbing to this area for hot water. So I'm wondering....isn't there some type of little water heater which could be used to hook up to a bidet? Like maybe just enough water for one individual use. We have an instant hot water heater under the kitchen sink which basically a tiny little water heater. Does something like this exist for a portable bidet?
If you are going to invest the money in adding a bidet (more of a personal preference than anything), why not do it right. I would do a half a$$ job.. Go all the way..
