Aussie Bidets clean up Downunder

Monday, July 13th, 2009

Recently The Lone Drainer and Pronto were called to repair a leaking toilet cistern in Bondi Junction, I was surprised to see this toilet not only had a flush button but came with a remote control as well. The client informed me that this toilet actually contained a bidet built into the toilet seat, complete with retracting heated water spout, air dryer, and instant seat heater, all of which are adjustable to suit individuals comforts and anatomy. Whilst the bidet is a very popular plumbing fixture in Europe, by comparison, I have come across few during my many years of plumbing in Australia.

The bidet toilet seat is a compromise.

Whilst this can be deemed as a “luxury” item for most, our client revealed that a relative of theirs who has suffered a stroke also had a bidet toilet seat installed. This has proved to be of great assistance to them and their family when using the bathroom, with loss of mobility in extremities after the stroke.  What a great idea, a bidet toilet seat could be of great assistance for the elderly, disabled, infirmed or even people with sports injuries
