Caroma Urbane II Cleanflush Wall Faced Back Inlet Pan

Caroma Toilets

Vitrous China

• Use a mild household detergent or warm soapy water and clean with a soft cloth.

Vitreous Enamel

• Routine cleaning with soap, mild detergent or ammonia solutions in warm water, followed by a freshwater rinse is usually adequate for normal soiling.
• Repeated applications and the occasional use of nylon scouring pad will often remove heavier soiling.
• Do not use an abrasive cleaner to remove surface grime.

Toilet Seats

• The best method of maintaining the finish while ensuring the cleanliness of toilet seats is simply to wipe them over with a soft cloth such as Selleys “Wonder Cloth” or similar with warm soapy water.
• This is all that is required.
• It is important that no abrasive cleaners are used, as these will remove the surface gloss of the product.
• At regular intervals the tightness of the hinge bolts might be checked, as continual use may cause loosening over time.

General Cleaning (Plastics)

• Where your product normally remains dry in use, a soft duster can be used to remove surface dust.
• Alternatively, wipe over with a clean, soft cloth dampened with a mild household detergent and water solution.
• Use of a wax-based furniture cream should be avoided as this can result in a build up of deposits that will detract from the appearance.
• Use of abrasive-based compounds should be avoided as these will scratch the surface.

Scratches (Plastics)

• Avoid contact with hard, sharp objects.
• Should scratches occur on plastic products fine marks can be removed using a cutting compound normally used for car re-treatment, followed by buffing with a car polish and a clean soft cloth.

Chemical Attack (Plastics)

• Plastic accessories and seats are resistant to most household products, but are not absolutely stain proof.
• Spills of some products such as after shave lotion, hair lacquer, nail polish and remover, mineral turpentine, white spirit, kerosene, aerosol propellants and insecticides should be removed immediately by washing.
• To restore toilet seat surface if marked, treat as for scratches.
• Parts should not be immersed in any household antiseptic solutions. 

Discolouration (Plastics)

• Iodine, Mercurochrome solution, boot polish, hair dye, bleaches and the like will discolour the surface if not removed immediately.
• Provided the discolouration is not severe, restore the surface as described for scratches.

Burns (Plastics)

• Avoid placing hot objects, such as curling tongs, or lighted cigarettes on any plastic surface as these will certainly cause discolouration and marking.
• However should slight accidental damage occur, it may be possible to remove marks as for scratches.

Here are some important things to know when choosing a toilet for your bathroom or powder room. Two of the most important considerations are:

1. where is the water going to come into the toilet (water inlet)?
2. where is the waste going to go (waste trap)?

The diagram below shows possible water inlets and waste traps to help you decide what will work best for you. If you want to avoid changing the existing plumbing, you will need to make sure your new toilet inlet and outlet fits the old pipework.

Water Inlet

Water can come into the cistern from one of two places. Rear entry is where the tap is inside the cistern and bottom inlet or entry is where the tap is in the wall beside the toilet.

Waste Trap

For the waste leaving the toilet, P-trap refers to a sewerage pipe through the wall (think p for plaster). S-trap is where the sewerage goes through the floor (think s for sewerage).

Setout

A commonly used measurement to help align your new toilet is the setout. This refers to the distance to the centre of the waste outlet.

S-trap setout = the distance from the finished wall to the centre of the waste pipe in the floor.

P-trap setout = the distance between the finished floor to the centre of the waste pipe in the wall.

Make sure you know which trap will fit your existing plumbing and the setout distance before purchasing a toilet.

Other Factors

With hundreds of toilet suites on the market, it can be quite confusing and difficult to make a decision. Once you have the technical requirements down, the most important thing is that you choose a toilet that makes you feel comfortable. 

You may like to consider the type of toilet, its efficiency, the size, or just the one that looks best to you.
