Bidet Installation

Plumb the drain lines to the manufacturers specifications. If you do not have experience installing a bidet, call a professional like Brixton Plumbers for this job. Apply some plumbers type putty onto the base of the bidet tap, and then place the tap body into the mounting holes. Thread the washers and locknut onto the tap body shank and tighten by hand. Place a roll of plumbers putty under the drain flange. Insert the flange in the drain hole, fit the gasket and washer, and then thread the nut onto the flange. Do not fully tighten. Fit the pop-up drain apparatus following the manufacturers diagram. Place the bidet in its final position. Check alignment. Mark the locations of the two side-mounting holes through the drilled holes on the stool and onto the floor. Remove the bidet and drill 3?16″ pilot holes through the marks on the floor. Push the floor bolts (included with the bidet basin) into the holes. Position the bidet so the floor bolts fit into the bolt holes in the base. Connect the water supply back up to the tap on the bidet using compression unions. Make sure to fit the hot/cold supplies to the correct ports on the bidet. Connect the drain line by attaching the P-trap to the drain tailpiece. The trap is then attached to a branch drain line coming out of the wall or floor in the same manner as a sink drain. Of course you may need a professional like a Brixton Plumber to ensure the job is done to the current regulations.Take out the aerator so any objects in the supply line will clear and then switch on the supply. Check for leaks in all the lines. Assemble the bolt caps and thread them onto the floor bolts. Note: Do not dispose of any objects in the bidet.
