Introduction To Rimless Toilet Bowls

Many past toilet bowl installations involved rimmed toilet bowls. Due to this, the flushing nozzles would be concealed. When the toilet was flushed, water would flow through these nozzles downwards. Since the inner part of the rim was concealed, dirt and debris would often accumulate in the rim, which was unhygienic. 

To overcome this problem, most toilet bowl companies are manufacturing one or more rimless toilet bowl models. Property owners who are planning to install a rimless toilet bowl would like to get more information about a rimless toilet, and how it is better than a conventional toilet so that they can make a decision.

 

What Are Rimless Toilets? 

A Rimless toilet is becoming one of the most popular types of toilets among the best-selling toilet brands in Singapore. It is a toilet bowl that does not have a rim for concealing nozzles for flushing. This ensures that the entire surface of the toilet bowl is easily accessible, making it very easy to clean.

Rimless bowls are a comparatively new design for toilets and the design was patented only a decade ago. Since there is no rim, the dirt will not accumulate in the hidden crevices, and the toilet is easier to clean. In the last decade, this rimless design has become very popular, and most one-piece toilets are having a rimless design. 

 

How Do Rimless Toilets Work? 

Having nozzles with downward flowing water is one of the many common toilet bowl problems you should avoid. A rimless toilet is designed with valves that will allow the water to circulate around the inner surface of the toilet like a tornado when flushed. This way, the water will move over most of the inner surface of the toilet before exiting. 

This rimless design ensures that the toilet is cleaned better compared to conventional older toilets as most of the dirt is removed. Hence the family will know how to clean and maintain the toilet bowl better — this is a major advantage. Additionally, since the water is circulating in the toilet for a longer time, less water is required for flushing the toilet, removing the same amount of dirt. In addition to being more hygienic, the water consumption of a rimless toilet is also lower – one of the features to look out for when buying the best toilet for your bathroom.
