Installing your bidet seat is quite easy and simple, since
it does not require skills or prior experience. It does not require many tools.
In addition to that, most manufacturers include a detailed instruction manual
that they can follow. Some of them even have online tutorial videos on how to
install their units. The assembly of the individual bidet is more difficult and
the plumbing experience should help. If you do not know anything about
plumbing, you'd better call a professional. We will explain how to install both
models.
Bidet toilet seat:

seats are designed to be installed by you, not by a plumber. It is easy to
do and should not take more than 20 to 30 minutes. No additional plumbing is
required because the bidet hits directly into the water supply behind the
toilet. Nor is a separate drain needed because all the water drains to the
toilet. However, bidet seats require electricity to work, so be sure to have an
outlet near the toilet seat.
The first thing you should do is remove your existing toilet
seat. To do that, you need to close the seat and the lid. After that, you will
notice that there are two mounting caps behind the seat. These mounting caps
cover the screws and mounting holes. There are multiple bolt versions in the
market. Some of them require a flathead screwdriver to remove them, while
others can be removed only with your fingers. After removing the bolts, lift
the entire seat. You can see the mounting holes just behind the bowl.
The next step is to mount the bidet seat. After mounting it
and screwing it into place, you must connect it to the water supply. If you
look behind the toilet, you will see a hose at the bottom of the water tank.
You will also notice a valve. The valve must be turned so that the water supply
disconnects. After that, unscrew the supply hose connected to the valve.
Connect the seat hose to the valve and reconnect the supply hose to the
remaining connection. Check all connections and make sure they are tight. Turn
the valve so that the water supply is switched on again. Make sure there are no
leaks. If there is none, your work is done. Simply plug the power cord into the
power outlet so you have warm water and start using the bidet seat.
Individual bidet:
the individual bidet is more difficult to install because it will also need new
connections to the water supply and a new drain. If you do not have experience
in plumbing, call a professional. If you have experience, you can probably
manage the installation in less than 30 minutes.
