In case you experience weak water pressure: There are chances;

1. For a new built, newly renovated home, or home using the private well system, it is often found that construction debris, corrosion debris, or sands from the well might have blocked the screen inside the inlet water connector of the bidet unit.

=> In these cases, disconnect the hose from the bidet, clean the hose as well as the screen, and reconnect it back.

2. All the connections of the bidet use rubber rings for water-tightness. Thus, when you apply too much power to tighten the connections, the rubber ring might be distorted and partly block the hole resulting in weak water pressure, or even might be torn resulting in leakage.

=> We recommend not to use too much power or use heavy tools when fastening to prevent the issue.

As mentioned in our previous article, an average American spend about $183 each year which is approximately $11,198 on toilet paper over the course of their life while contributing into destroying the environment (JK but not really). Looking at how other countries such as France, Spain, Korea, Japan, China, India, Morocco, and many more that primarily use water to clean up after themselves.

While bidets are the standard fixture in any Japanese or Italian bathroom, most Americans have never experienced using a bidet throughout their whole life. One of the main reasons why Americans are not familiar with bidet is due to the lack of availability throughout the whole country. It has not been widely available for purchase when comparing to countries in Asia or Europe. It is incredibly uncommon in the United States to the point that some people may have never seen one before in their lives.

But what really is a bidet? Looking back in 17^th century when the bidet was first invented in France, the original bidet that most people may have seen looks similar to a sink that located right next to the toilet where people can easily move of the toilet into the bidet to clean up. Many of the European households are still using the similar-looking bidet until today as it has become a standard piece in their bathrooms.

There are a few different types of bidets that are used throughout the world. The most common bidet type that are used in South East Asia is the bidet shower which is a hand-held triggered nozzle that locates next to the toilet where it can be easily reached without having to get up from the toilet like the European type. This type of bidet is simple and affordable since the function is generally limited, they are mostly considered as an attachment rather than a separate fixture.

In 1980, the first smart bidet toilet was invented in Japan, this has been a game-changer when it comes to going to the bathroom as the toilet is now not only for flushing away the waste, but also operate as a build-in bidet that comes with many amazing functions such as the adjustable water temperature, build-in air dryer, water pressure control, automatic open/close, and many more. This type of bidet toilet is the most accessible considering that the majority of functions are hand-free operated otherwise, can be easily controlled by simply pressing buttons on the remote control.

Bidet has become much more accessible in the United States as people can simply order one online from almost any appliance store. Americans have become more exposed to the concept of bidets especially when the pandemic hits the United States with a toilet paper shortage. People started to look for an alternative to replace the toilet paper. Shortly after the massive shortage, toilet paper has become commonly available again. However, many American had shifted from using toilet paper into regularly using bidets in their households for many reasons such as reducing their monthly spend on toilet paper, better hygiene from a more efficient cleaning method, or the luxury experience that comes with the additional bidet functions such as a heated seat or auto deodorizer.

There are many benefits of using a bidet considering from the environmental standpoint to the long-term health and hygiene. With VOVO STYLEMENT advanced technology, we offer you a new luxurious bathroom experience that will save you from ever buying toilet paper again. Check out our Bidet Seat and Smart Integrated Toilet, you will never go back to using toilet paper again.

What are bidet toilets? And how are they different from the conventional toilets that we use in our everyday lives? In some countries such as Japan, bidets are commonly found in almost every single household and even in some public restrooms. Meanwhile in the United States, due to the lack of familiarity with bidets, only typical conventional toilets and toilet paper rolls can be found in most American households. These types of toilets and cleaning methods are good but not great, while they are practical, but still lack hygiene.

Conventional toilets, require a massive amount of toilet paper to wipe up clean. Clearly, that does not work nearly as well as gently rinsing your butt with some nice warm water when using a bidet. Bidets are proven to be a far more effective, gentle, and the most hygienic cleaning method that would also save money in the long run.

But are bidets really hygienic for multiple users? The answer is, yes! There are many types of bidets out there that function very well for multiple users and can even recognize each users’ behavior patterns when using the bidet. VOVO STYLEMENT Bidet Seats and Bidet Toilets went as far as having an automatic nozzle cleaning that will guarantee that your bidet nozzle will always be sparklingly clean at all times.

Aside from saving toilet paper and having better hygiene, there are many amazing features that come with VOVO STYLEMENT. Experience a complete hand-free operation with auto open/close lid, auto flushing system, auto deodorization and many more.

Let’s get straight to the point. The Short Answer is, absolutely! Bidets are excellent for hemorrhoid treatment. Here’s why.

There are many different circumstances that may trigger hemorrhoids such as sitting for long period of times, having chronic constipation or diarrhea, being obese or pregnant, consuming a low fiber diet, or even regular heavy lifting. Hemorrhoids are found as swollen veins in your lower rectum which causes both external and internal discomforts including irritation, pain, swelling, and bleeding.¹

There are ways that you may begin to follow in order to prevent hemorrhoids such as consuming more high-fiber diets, staying hydrated, exercising regularly, avoiding sitting for a long period of time, and avoiding straining.

If you find yourself having hemorrhoid symptoms, we advise you have a visit with your doctor to make sure that you do not have any other concerning symptoms that may lead to other types of diseases. Hemorrhoids are often treatable and do not usually cause serious health issues other than some minor pain and discomforts.

So how exactly do bidets help relieve hemorrhoid symptoms? Hemorrhoids usually shrink away on its own if treated correctly. To treat hemorrhoids, it is important to avoid irritation around the skin. Using warm gentle water to rinse off your butt rather than rubbing your already irritated skin with toilet paper can make a big difference in recovery and long-term symptom maintenance. The water from bidets will gently soothe your skin follows by a warm air dryer to dry you off without having to make any skin contact with harsh toilet papers. Not to mention, our bidets have a Turbo Wash function that helps relieve constipation which is one of the main symptoms that causes hemorrhoids. Check out our collections and get yourself a bidet that will improve your health and lifestyle forever!

Finding a bidet seat that fits your toilet can be tricky but do not worry, we are here to help! First, you would need to find out what type of toilet do you own before deciding which type of bidet seat you need. Take a look at our VOVO toilet fit check guide below.

The most common toilet seat shapes are round shapes and elongated shapes. Round shapes toilets are more common in older design toilets while elongated shapes are most commonly found in a more recent design.

To measure the toilet for VOVO bidet seat, make sure you have enough space between the tank and the bowl holes. In some cases when a toilet tank is curved too far forward, you may not be able to push the bidet all the way in and it may not fit your toilet. To avoid this issue, make sure the distance between the tank and the bowl holes are at least 2 inches or 30 millimeters apart. Otherwise, the seat may not cover the bowl entirely or you may not be able to complete the installation.

Our VOVO bidet seats offer both round and elongated shapes. For the round toilet, make sure the distance between the bowl holes to the edge of the bowl is 16.9 inches or 430 millimeters. For elongated, the distance between the bowl holes and the edge of the bowl would have to be 18.5 inches or 470 millimeters.

Installing a toilet can be intimidating especially when you do not have the plumbing experience. At VOVO, we care about our customers’ experience with our products. Therefore, we have developed easy installation products that our customers can follow through even with little to no experience at all.

All our products also come with a full installation kit; you are not required to purchase any additional part for the installation. The installation kit for our bidet toilet includes a wax ring, conversion nut, water hose, AA batteries, screws, anchors, strainer, water shutoff valve, water pipe, ring plate, and a wall-mount for the remote control. The installation accessories are varied, depending on the product specification of the bidet toilet you had purchased.

Once you prepare all the installation accessories that we have provided, we can move on to the installation guide. To install our bidet toilet, first, you need to close the water gauge and make sure you remove dust and sand in the water inlet when installing the shutoff valve. Wind Teflon tape around the water pipe, then connect the pipe with the shutoff valve and connect the strainer. Next, attach the provided water hose to your water shutoff valve. With this process, you may need to use the provided conversion nut to fit your water shutoff valve. In this case, simply screw the conversion nut into the ½” side of the hose before connecting it to your water shutoff valve. Once the water hose us connected the to shutoff valve, connect the other side of the hose to the bidet upper part. Make sure to fix the hose to the flushing adapter first, then turn the nut clockwise to connect the hose.

To install the ceramic bowl, first, mount the flange to the floor and press the wax ring firmly onto the bottom part of the ceramic bowl and place mount the ceramic onto the floor. Make sure the flange and the wax ring are aligned. Please make sure to apply the weight evenly and do not move the ceramic bowl after the placement as the watertight seal may break.

Once the ceramic bowl is installed, you may assemble the ceramic bowl with the bidet top by connecting the jet spray outlet and bowl washing unit. Insert the hose into the filter, then insert the bidet fixing hooks onto the toilet fixing hooks until it clicks. Once everything is done, turn on the shutoff valve and you may connect the power to the bidet toilet by simply plugging the power cord into a nearby outlet.
