Overview
A toilet seat is a hinged element that consists of a circular or oval open seat and generally a lid and is bolted onto the bowl of a toilet when used in a sitting posture (as opposed to a squat toilet). The seat can be used with either a flush or a dry toilet.
A toilet seat consists of the seat itself, which may be curved for the user to sit on, and the lid, which covers the toilet when it is not in use – in certain circumstances, notably in public restrooms, the lid may be removed.
Usage Of Toilet Seats
Toilet seats frequently have a cover. This lid is often left open. When a toilet is not in use, the combined toilet seat and lid can be kept closed, requiring the lid to be raised prior to use.
It can be closed to keep tiny items from falling in, to eliminate odors, to improve aesthetics, or to give a chair in the toilet area. According to certain research, closing the lid prevents the spread of aerosols while flushing (“toilet plume”), which could be a cause of disease transmission.
The seat itself can be left up or down depending on the gender of the user and the type of use (urination or feces).
The question of whether the toilet seat and lid should be closed after use is a perennial source of debate and light humour (typically across gender lines), with many arguing that leaving the toilet seat up is more efficient for men, while putting it down is more polite for women.
The “correct answer” appears to be determined by elements such as the location of the toilet (public or private), the demographics of the users (e.g., a sorority house vs. a frat house), and/or personal or family beliefs, opinions, preferences, agreements, or hygiene habits.
Toilet seats are frequently supported not by the porcelain or metal body of the toilet, but by hinges and a few tabs/spacers. Similarly, the lids do not lie directly in uniform touch with the seat, but are lifted above it by hinges and tabs/spacers attached in a few places. When the gate is closed, effluent aerosols may be released.
Types Of Toilet Seats
Toilet seats are available in a variety of forms and colors, and they can be outfitted to match the decor of the toilet itself. They are often designed to fit the shape of the toilet bowl, with the elongated bowl and normal bowl being two examples. Slow-closing hinges are used on some toilet seats to lessen noise by keeping them from crashing against the bowl.
Some seats are made of different types of wood, such as oak or walnut, while others are created soft for enhanced comfort. Seats with multi-colored printed designs, such as floral or newspaper, have been popular at times.
Other designs are constructed of clear plastic and encase little decorative things like seashells or coins. Toilet seats are sold at a wide range of prices.
Open front toilet seats
According to Section 409.2.2 of the International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials’ Uniform Plumbing Code, “all water closet seats, excluding those within residential units or for private use, shall be of the open front type.”
Toilets equipped with an automatic toilet-seat cover dispenser are exempt. Because most public authorities adhere to the rule, many public restrooms have exposed front toilet seats (also called “split seats”).
The goal of this seat design is to keep genitals from coming into touch with the seat. It also eliminates touch for simpler wiping by omitting a region of the seat that could be soiled with urine.
Slow-close
Many amenities, such as a heated seat, a bidet, and a blow drier, can be found in high-tech toilet seats. High-tech seats are particularly widespread in Japan, where a seat with built-in bidets is informally known as a Washlet, after a leading manufacturer.
Since the 1970s, electrically heated toilet seats have been popular in Japan. Because Japanese restrooms are frequently cold, the toilet seat is occasionally used as a space heater. Integrated bidets first appeared about 1980 and have since grown in popularity in Japan, as well as in most other affluent countries.
Seatless toilet
There is no toilet seat on a seatless toilet. Although it is significantly cleaner and easier to clean than toilet seats, the structurally sound and hard rim of a porcelain toilet bowl still allows for sitting. Users who are unaware of the option to sit on this type of toilet may hover over.
