Why is there always a step around the raised squat toilet? I only found out after asking the installer

People say that the living standards of the people are gradually moving toward moderate prosperity now, and whether it is clothing, food, housing, or transportation, or the standard of living, everything is slowly on the rise. Huahua found that, as our living standards improve, every household has done some renovation, big or small, but every household has installed a toilet.

It is hard to say when it started, but installing a toilet has become a must for bathroom renovations at home. Even so, some families are still unwilling to install a toilet at home and use a squat toilet instead.

Huahua found that most squat toilets are not parallel to the floor; generally speaking, they are raised a bit above the floor. This made Huahua curious about why the squat toilet is raised a bit! It was not until a few days ago, when the renovation installer came to my home, that I finally asked and understood.

The installer said that, in rural areas, this kind of squat toilet is generally parallel to the floor, but in the city it is usually raised a bit. This is because installing this kind of squat toilet generally requires sunken construction, and in rural areas this sunken construction can just be dug downward, and the squat toilet can be installed after digging it out.

But in the city, many people basically live in apartment buildings and cannot easily dig downward, as it would damage the structure of the building, so they can only build a small step on the floor! Although some friends find it inconvenient at first, they get used to it over time!

In addition, raising the squat toilet is also meant to make the drainage effect better. Reserving space for the squat toilet can speed up the discharge of waste.

Many home bathrooms are dual-use as both bath and toilet. When taking a shower, it is easy to accidentally "flood" the toilet, so when we use the toilet we have to be very careful, afraid of slipping. If a small step is built at home, do you think it would be much more convenient? And you would no longer have to worry about slipping!

In addition, cleaning is usually more convenient too. Building a small step is almost like dividing the bathroom into a small area; when cleaning, the lower part is the lower part and the upper part is the upper part, and it is cleaned up quickly!

So, everyone knows the purpose of building an extra layer for this squat toilet, right! So that is how it is. Now Huahua finally understands. I wonder if everyone else understands too?

Although the squat toilet and the toilet serve the same purpose, because what we people need differs and our habits differ too, everyone can choose according to their own preferences. There is no need to be like others and insist on installing a toilet; if it is uncomfortable for you to use, in the end it is you who is uncomfortable!

Huahua has told everyone everything the installer explained. Do you understand now? If you have any other little life tips, everyone can share them in the comments!
