The toilet is one of the essential sanitary equipment in human daily life.

With the improvement of people’s living standards and the enhancement of hygiene awareness,

more and more people begin to pay attention to the comfort and functionality of the toilet.

This requires a scientific Reasonable toilet standard size and height design specifications guide the design and production of toilets.

1. The purpose of formulating design specifications

The “Toilet Standard Size and Height Design Specifications” are formulated to ensure the openness,

beauty, hygiene, safety and comfort of the toilet, while also taking into account the requirements of popularization, industrialization, standardization and economic practicality.

In order to achieve these goals, we need to formulate a series of design specifications to ensure risk control and orderly advancement of quality in toilet height design.

2. Optimization and health regulations of standard toilet size and height

1） The height of the standard toilet should be between 400mm and 425mm, and the optimized toilet height should be between 440mm and 460mm.

Due to differences in people’s heights, the standard value of toilet height should be increased appropriately.

2) The height of the toilet cannot be too low, otherwise the user will bend down to use the toilet,

which will put unnecessary pressure on the spine and cause other health problems.

In addition, it is unreasonable if the height of the toilet is too high, because such a toilet is not comfortable enough to use.

3) Common toilet heights on the market range from 400mm to 420mm.

In order to improve the comfort of the toilet and the user experience,

some manufacturers have gradually extended the height of the toilet to make it more ergonomic.

3. Consideration of toilet safety

1) The bottom of the toilet needs to be stable to ensure that the toilet does not slide or shake when in use.

During the toilet production process, the bottom needs to be properly designed and processed.

Normally, the bottom will be in a stable state unless other factors interfere with its adsorption.

2) The surface of the toilet should be smooth and free of depressions and ridges to facilitate cleaning.

Once there are defects on the surface of the toilet, it is easy for bacteria to breed and stains to accumulate, thus affecting cleanliness and hygiene.

3) The installation of the toilet should not be too high or too low.

The optimal height should not exceed 500mm to ensure that users will not fall or be injured when sitting or standing.

4) The toilet should have good wear resistance, as well as a certain degree of strength and hardness to ensure that

it can stably bear the person’s weight and constant wear and tear during use for a long time.

4. Consideration of toilet hygiene

1) The toilet should be made of good quality materials, beautiful appearance, smooth surface, easy to clean and maintain,

and not easy to produce dirt and bacterial residues to ensure the quality of daily cleaning and hygiene.

2) The trench and drain outlet of the toilet need to be kept clean and unobstructed when designing to prevent clogging with human feces,

and can be cleaned at any time to ensure the hygiene of the toilet.

3) The toilet cover needs to have good sealing performance to prevent germs and bacteria from entering the interior of the toilet,

and at the same time facilitate cleaning and maintenance operations.

5. Consideration of toilet comfort

1) The toilet seat is reasonably designed and features soft, thick, and high quality to ensure

comfort during use while taking into account the convenience of toilet cleaning.

2) The inclination of the toilet should be relatively large to make the user more comfortable and meet ergonomic requirements.

At the same time, the inclination of the toilet should be within the bearing range of the knee, so that the person’s calves can relax.

3) The front edge of the toilet has an appropriate inclination, making it easy for users to adjust their sitting posture and reducing pressure on the buttocks.

This is very important for plus-size or pregnant women.

6. Conclusion

The review and maintenance of the standard size and height of toilets is a necessary condition to improve the quality of toilets.

The implementation and execution of this specification can meet the requirements of daily use,

reduce unnecessary damage and accidents, thereby reducing use costs and ensuring human health and safety.

Therefore, toilet suppliers, designers and developers should all follow these specifications and basic principles and continuously improve and improve the technology and quality standards of standardized design.
