Colored toilets appeared on the market in the last century. Every year the assortment of this product is expanding and the buyer is on each item. Even in Soviet times in stores it was possible to see not only white toilets, but also gently blue and green. Such a plumbing was practically not in demand, because in standard bathrooms, the high-rise buildings did not look, but the imperceptible white toilet just fit. And now most people try not to pay attention to non-ferrous toilets and buy white plumbing in the old manner. And in vain, because non-ferrous toilets have a number of advantages.
Pay attention to the color plumbing
So, you went to the plumbing shop and consider colored toilets with interest - they are bright and very attractive. Why should you stop your choice on such products? First, let's take a little from the generally accepted concepts if the toilet is colored, then it must be bright: red, bright green or blue. It is not true, manufacturers can please buyers very unusual products. So, instead of the expected red toilet, you will see a product of a gentle shade, monophonic or with a pattern. It can be said that unobtrusive shades do not repel at all.
You can also find real designer masterpieces on sale - these are multicolor toilets or plumbing with drawing. Such a toilet (sink or bath) looks well in a spacious room with a monophonic tile.
There is almost nothing to say about the lack of color toilet bowls, except that they need a more thorough care: on brown, dark blue, green and black toilet, water droplets are clearly visible. And also, better colored toilets do not install in small bathrooms, because they visually narrow the space.
What are the benefits of colored toilets:
- expressiveness. If you want to make a bathroom special, just color plumbing is the best solution;
- ability to apply any drawing on the product (under the order or select from the assortment presented in the store). When ordering an individual figure, pay attention to the quality of the product itself. Thus, the toilets made from poor-quality enamel with the addition of the dye, eventually begin to crack, and such a product no longer looks presentable. If it is high-quality ceramics or faience, then you should not worry. The drawing is applied to the finished surface or dye mixed with the raw material in the manufacture and the beautiful pattern is obtained;
- color will create a separate toilet cozy island in the room. Even if your bathroom is combined, then use the color of sanitary ware and decorative materials you can make a separate functional area;
- colored bowls cheer up - if properly placed accents and matched colors. Here, it is desirable to agree in advance the product tone with all family members, so that each one liked this color. Otherwise, even the color of the toilet can affect a person's mood. If relatives do not share your desire to buy a bowl of crimson color, then it is necessary to limit pastels.
As you can see, the advantages in color plumbers enough, but if you also want the unusual toilet, but do not plan to make repairs in the bathroom, then you can make a bowl of white color. The usual technique of painting plumbing or decoupage technique - it is a great idea.

On the types of sanitary ware
Because our goal - to buy a quality product, we need to learn how to choose the right color in the toilet bowl and what to look out at the store when purchasing.
Types of toilets:
- Each product (color) is divided into several types (according to manufacturing techniques or coating pigment). Those toilet bowls, which are colored during the manufacturing process (in raw pigment added) no different luminance colors. These toilets are pale, not bright. The only exception - black toilet bowl and other dark shades.
- Toilet glazed - bright and beautiful. After producing product coated with a thin layer of colored enamel, to obtain the desired hue. If you want a contrasting bright toilet, then you need to pay attention to the toilets, covered with colored glaze. Such a product, by the way, long-lasting. Toilet will always be bright and eye-catching, if properly care for them. Glazed toilets do not like hot water and boiling water. If you do not pour boiling water into the bowl, then it did not happen and it will last for years to come.

And it's not the only thing you should pay attention when choosing the color of the toilet, let us briefly consider the classification of plumbing, pay attention to the various forms of toilets:
- Toilet bowls are outdoor (standard and familiar option) and suspended. Colored pendant toilets are no exception, they look more advantageous and concise, because everything is superfluous - this is a tank, sewage, tap pipes and other communications are hidden from prying eyes in the wall.
- Unitaze connection is also different. Colored toilet bowls with direct release are presented, as well as lower and oblique. Toilet bowls are still relevant, because in most high-rise buildings and frequent residential buildings, sewer pipes are laid at an angle.
- When buying, it is still worth paying attention to the method of assembling a colored toilet: you can choose a standard compact, product without a cumulative tank - equipped with such toilets with a friend (drain without a tank) or products with a monoblock. The latter has a significant drawback - the built-in tank for water can burst and have to buy a new toilet.

When choosing a colored toilet compact, it is also worth paying attention to the form of the receiving bowl. Many buyers are very responsible for the choice of toilet bowl, paying attention to his form. So, some like the horizontal descent or playground, and many love to be the descent to be gentle.
Also, when buying a colored toilet, pay attention to its dimensions, because the toileties can be different: large and high, medium, low and small. The choice remains yours and will depend on the size of your bathroom.

How to choose a colored toilet
Buy colored toilet is not even easier than the standard white, the rules for choosing plumbing are the same.
What is worth paying attention to when choosing non-ferrous toilet and shells:
- you immediately saw in the store toilet the right color in the store, do not rush to buy it right away: look at the product from all sides to make sure that there are no cracks, chips and other defects. It is also necessary to carefully examine the color of the product, it should be homogeneous, without divorce. If you notice that the color is not homogeneous, it is possible that the product is not high-quality;
- before you go to the store, you must decide in advance not only with the color of the toilet bowl, but also with the form, and also know which type of connection you need. If you are used to using the toilet with a horizontal platform inside and do not know anything else, just think about what your old toilet, equipped with a platform, detained life waste. You may want to buy another model of toilet bowl with a straight bowl. Just be prepared for the fact that when operating, splashes are possible (during the detergent). There is a third option - the most acceptable, it is a toilet with an inclined platform;
- before buying a toilet, you should learn from the consultant information about the manufacturer and explore the quality certificate;
- it is not necessary to be shy and flew to the toilet - the value of color plumbing is an order of magnitude higher than standard white color, so do not be lazy and carefully examine each centimeter of the product;
- and some information about the release system or the place of connecting the toilet to the sewer tube: you must need to know which release system in your bathroom, because to connect the toilet with another system, it is impossible. Universal and frequently found is Montga on oblique (in high-rise buildings). In the houses of "Stalinki" and "Khrushchev" connection vertical, lower;
- the tank is connected in 2 ways: or from below, or water comes on the side, but then you need a little more space for connecting the plumbing hose;
- since you buy the toilet for many years, it is worth looking into the tank itself: if the inner part and the connecting elements are made of high-quality materials, it is not worth worrying. Cheaper products will require replacements in a few months. Tacks are often broken, so choose a design equipped with a button, it is more enduring. It is advantageous to buy a tank with a double button to have the opportunity to save water. Information on the filling speed is looking for in the instructions;
- we draw attention to the seating of the toilet, it should be included. Cheap option made of plastic. It will last for a short time, it is better to replace it right away to better. An excellent option is a microlift seat, which covers closes independently;
- colored toilet material: Faience or porcelain. The first option is cheaper, but also quickly loses the initial look: color divorces appear on the surface, places fauins turn yellow and cracks. Porcelain is rushing, the term of the color toilet bowl from the porcelain - dozens of years.
Choose the toilet not hurry, because it will have to use several dozen years. Good luck in choosing!
