What does the water absorption rate of the toilet mean?

Water absorption rate, that is, the toilet bowl has a certain ability to adsorb and penetrate water, if the water is sucked into the ceramic, it will swell, and it is easy to make the glaze on the surface of the ceramic crack due to expansion.

For flush toilets, if the water absorption rate is high, it is easy to suck the dirt and odor in the water into the ceramic, and after a long time, it will produce odors that cannot be removed, and there is no way to remove them.

Tips for choosing a toilet.

1) According to the type, it is divided into conjoined type & split type.

The choice of toilet is mainly based on the size of the bathroom space. The split toilet is more traditional, and the production is to connect the base and the second layer of the water tank with screws and sealing rings in the later stage, which occupies a large space, and the connecting joints are easy to hide dirt;

The one-piece toilet is more modern and high-end, with a beautiful body shape, rich choices, and integrated molding. But the price is a bit more expensive.

2) According to the direction of discharge, it is divided into rear type & lower type.

The rear row type is also called the wall row type or the horizontal row type, and the direction of its sewage discharge can be known according to the literal meaning. When purchasing a rear toilet, the height of the center of the sewage outlet from the ground should be considered, which is generally 180mm;

The lower type is also called the floor type or vertical type, as the name suggests, it refers to the toilet with the sewage outlet on the ground. The purchase of lower-row toilets should pay attention to the distance between the center point of the sewage outlet and the wall, and the distance between the sewage outlet and the wall is divided into three types: 400mm, 305mm, and 200mm. Among them, the northern market has a large demand for 400mm pit spacing products.

The southern market has a large demand for 305mm pit spacing products.

3) The water pressing method is divided into flush type & siphon type.

The purchase of a toilet depends on the direction of the drainage. If it is a rear flush type, you should choose a flush toilet, which uses the flush of water to directly discharge the dirt. The flush-down type sewage outlet is larger and deeper, and the dirt is directly discharged with the help of the flushing water, which has the disadvantage of large flushing sound.

If it is a lower discharge type, you should buy a siphon toilet. There are two types of siphon subdivisions, including jet siphon and vortex siphon. The principle of the siphon toilet is to form a siphon effect in the sewage pipe by flushing water to discharge the dirt, and its sewage outlet is smaller, less noisy and quieter to use.

The disadvantage is that the water consumption is large, and the storage capacity of 6 liters is generally used up at one time.

Single-point, the higher the water absorption rate of ceramics, the worse its density, the worse the density, of course, the price is also very low, the main reason is that the impurities of clay and other materials are larger, the raw materials are cheap, and there is a great relationship between the firing process and the firing time, heat, temperature, etc.

Good ceramics have low water absorption, about 3%-5%, their density is extremely high, the cost is relatively high, and there are extremely strict requirements for raw materials and heat.

If you want to test the water absorption rate in the factory, the staff will measure the weight of a piece of dried ceramic with a precision measuring instrument, then put it in boiling water and boil it for N hours, take it out, weigh it again, and then measure the water absorption rate.

Therefore, if you want to choose sanitary ware, it is recommended to choose high-quality, big brands.

Such as: foreign brands include American Standard, Kohler, TOTO, etc. The relative price is higher.

There are a lot of domestic brands, Hengjie, Jiumu, Faenza, Wrigley, etc., all of which are relatively popular and relatively low in price, and good in quality.

Not ...... thoughIf you choose sanitary ware, you can lift the lid of the water tank and see how its density compares, the brand and the price. The heavier the weight, the higher the material and density. I used to make American Standard, and the average American Standard one-piece toilet can reach more than 45 kilograms.

You can see how it is made.

Similar to the fact that dry clothes will absorb water when soaked in water, the toilet also has a certain water absorption rate, and the lower the water absorption rate, the more helpful it will be to improve the other properties of the toilet. Arrow sanitary ware is completely vitrified stone, the water absorption rate is very low, and the strength and density of the toilet are improved.

Agree with the upstairs, compared to the Wrigley toilet almost has the lowest water absorption rate.

It seems that the smell of the toilet bowl is also related to the water absorption rate.

With high water absorption, ceramics will swell and burst easily.

The lower the water absorption rate of the toilet, the better.
