The main thing is to ensure that the type of toilet outlet (determining the direction of water drainage) matches the location of your sewage pipe.
For example, if you have already purchased a toilet and there is a mismatch, return the product to the store, advises plumber Sergey NEZHENETS. If your drain pipe exits the wall at an angle, the optimal option is a toilet with an angled outlet. This type of outlet system is more commonly found in buildings from the Soviet era.
Modern high-rise buildings typically use toilets with a horizontal outlet, corresponding to the horizontal direction of the drain pipes. In contrast, models with a vertical outlet are mainly relevant in the private sector, where water enters the sewage system from above through a pipe that goes into the floor.
To make a decision on the choice of toilet, be sure to think through the connection scheme and consider the dimensions of the room. Fact: the fewer adapters used when connecting the toilet, the lower the risk of leaks.
