What is the design of the attached toilet bowl

Types of drains of a lavatory toilet bowl
The main functional quality of the attached toilet bowl is the quality removal of the contents of the bowl. The parameter for removing the bowl depends on the distribution of the water flows created by the draining system. There are the following types of sinks:
• shower room

Built-in (concealed) tank for an additional toilet bowl
The concealed tank for the attached toilet bowl does not have a frame structure. At the same time, you do not need to confuse built-in downcomers and installation systems. Unlike the installation frame, which holds the weight of the owner and the toilet itself, the tank is mounted and simply embedded in the wall. This connection is typical only for floor-mounted wall toilet. In places where there is no possibility of installing the frame structure of the installation, the concealed cistern will perfectly fit into the wall space.
The concealed cistern for such systems is made of strong high-quality materials, therefore weight loads of the toilet bowl are not tested in comparison with the suspension structure. The water connection for the concealed tank can be carried out on the left, right, rear or top. Water connection is provided with a built-in shut-off valve.
The adjoining toilet bowl with a concealed cistern according to the technologies of modern manufacturers, allows to build the tanks in walls or niches. The advantages of a concealed tank without a frame are insignificant installation depth. To mount the tank into the wall it will be sufficient to have 8-10 cm of installation depth. The concealed tank has a double drain and noiseless high-speed filling valves.
The built in pneumatic flush valve has the main drain modes: two volumetric, continuous and start / stop.
When installing by yourself, the design of the concealed cistern remains invisible.
