You are so welcome!

[@mr7oclock346]

This is probably the only video I have seen that explains how to use a hot and cold connection. Thanks :)

[@ReviewedByPhil]

You're welcome!

[@VolcanoEarth]

I'm glad I found this. I too was curious about hot-water bidets, but my bathroom sink is on the opposite wall from the toilet so this particular configuration is no-can-do for me. Maybe one day I'll just get a plumber in and do it up right.

[@DonaldAJr]

@@VolcanoEarth I was thinking something similar but for me to get hot water at my toilet, I'd have to run 10 gallons of water just to get it done.

[@peierple]

Awesome video. Thanks for not having a 10 minute intro and 5 seconds of explaining! Straight to the point! I will be getting mine off of Amazon in couple minutes! Lol i just needed ro see how the hot water works wirh out electricity and batteries!

[@EricCosner]

You just made me realize that I should run a hot water line to the toilet on a new install. Brilliant. Thank you.

Finally! Someone who makes common sense out of how to attach the bidet. Kudos Phil!!

[@taintedangelx2488]

Anyone else watching this because of the current toilet paper shortage? Couldn't believe it when I went to the store today, not a single roll available & I have a child sick w the stomach virus. People can hoard the TP, I'll just invest in a bidet

[@SitesThatSuck]

Hurry becoz bidet's are selling out fast too everywhere and a lot of price gouging from sellers

[@leaannsavage2231]

My thoughts exactly. I bought a hand held bidet on Amazon and if I like that will invest in a permanent solution with hot and cold water.

[@peierple]

No

[@fastjeff6]

Yep.

[@TheSouthernSiren]

I just ordered the zen hose bidet. And switched to cloth squares which I've hemmed the outer edges with a second fabric to block shredding that happens with towels and to give it more of a personal homestyle touch. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqjRgaKGhdlkf68 Hoping its worth the investment. Because I'm done with toilet paper totally in my life after this national insanity.

[@geegee5437]

I agree with Daniel Johnson's comments. I have been researching for the best bidet attachment to get. It has taken me hours of browsing to discover this level of detailed installation video and explanation, especially about the hot water option, Thank you!

Where can I get this? I have a concealed water tank . Can I configure this to a wall mounted cammode ?

[@brenda1braun]

Wondering if sink is right across from toilet can I drill a hole into floor from sink and another up to toilet for hot water

[@snake1625b]

So there's two nozzles, one for regular use and one that sprays the main one to clean it?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Yes

[@tinavolpe1103]

I have a heated toilet seat. Can I still use this? Thanks a bunch for this great video

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Yes, the bidet unit installs underneath the seat, between the seat and the bowl.

[@Deebles62]

The amazon link states currently not available - but the same item is listed as an alternative. That means your affiliate link is broken. GREAT video. Best one I've seen about the hot and cold water usage.

[@deilabou6719]

Thank you for your video. We had the bidet hooked up, yet couldn't figure out how to turn it on. Your video provided the info.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

You're welcome!

[@sunnymango2101]

How do you dry? I want to purchase

[@katiekristine1221]

This may be a dumb question, my toilet is far from the sink, but the bathtub is next to the toilet. Can you connect the hot water to the bathtub plumbing?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Typically, bathtub plumbing is not accessible externally and the pipe diameter is generally larger than a sink inlet's so while it's theoretically possible, you'd likely have to open up the wall to access the lines and purchase an alternate T-adapter to fit the tub line. There's also no guarantee that there's a shutoff to connect to, so you may even need to end up cutting and welding pipe connections.

[@hendrxx_]

Is there a backdraw to only hooking up the hot water? I don’t have access to the tank supply and the manual says don’t hook up the T valve directly from the shutoff. Not sure why but I’d rather just hook it up to the sink

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Well, it would depend on the temperature of the hot water coming out of your line. Some hot water tanks are set to a max temperature of 160°F and without cold water to mix with it is a scald risk... not ideal for washing up your sensitive areas! The T-valve that comes with the bundle in this video is sized for the water inlet pipe on a standard toilet with a tank (7/8"). This pipe diameter size is usually larger than a sink pipe diameter (3/8"), so the T-adapter won't fit on a sink hookup. However, this simply means you just need to buy the correct a T-adapter that's the right size for your sink's cold water link and proceed with the installation from there.

[@hendrxx_]

@@ReviewedByPhil I went ahead and did it anyway because I never really put it together that it mixes with cold water to get the desired temp lol. Pretty stupid on my part but it works, and it takes forever to heat up anyway so there's no real risk of getting burnt. Works good, I just have to grab some smaller hoses like you mentioned for the cold

[@HitmanEF]

What if your hot water line is copper tubing?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

That should be fine. The adapter goes on the fitting at the shutoff, so the actual composition of the piping doesn't make a difference.

[@Gavriel-og6jv]

So good to be close enough to the sink faucet while sitting; my water always takes a long time to warm since it is from a well, and it takes 5 or 8 times longer in the winter. My question is how do you make sure a child that will use the bathroom, especially from visits, is not going to mess with it and spray water all over the bathroom. Does it come with a tight plastic cover for the whole control knob arm? Edit: I don't see any model that comes with a whole embracing cover for the control knobs, so I will just put a black plastic bag tied up in the back before visits with children come over.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Unfortunately, it doesn't come with a cover for the controls or a way to "lock" them. Yes a bag cover should probably work, or, simply turn off the water at the T-valve shutoff control after each use. That's what I do anyway to help prolong the life of the hose by eliminating constant water pressure. It's less likely children will reach down under the tank to turn on the t-valve.

[@proQuran]

Would you recommend this type of bidet for those of us who live in apartments?

[@babyganga8786]

How does it power? Does it need a electrical power?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

No, the water pressure in the line is enough to initiate the mechanical movements in the bidet. It does not need any electrical power.

[@TheRealDorran]

thought he meant it separately

[@FinesseFootball97]

Hey my hot water line doesn't look like it has a valve I'm kinda confused

[@ReviewedByPhil]

At some point along your hot water line there is typically a valve to shut off the flow of water to your sink. It's possible, of course, that your pipes have a different configuration.

[@FinesseFootball97]

@@ReviewedByPhil awesome thank youu

[@anag9698]

Hi, thanks so much for this video. Small problem: They didn’t include a flexible hose for me. Can I attach it with the adapter alone?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

No, you'll really need the hose line to connect the adapter to the water inlet. I would reach out to the vendor/manufacturer for assistance. They may send you the missing part free of charge.

[@stevewollam6514]

The problem I would have is that this hot water connection line can only be used in my guest bath because the master bath toilet is isolated and further away from the sinks. Plus, I have a hot water tank that heats the water, therefore, one has to run the water for awhile (in the guest bath) before it turns hot. However, since I have a heated basement the temp is around 64°F in the Winter and this makes the cold water line temp to the bidets at a comfortable 64°F. However, this is a good idea and I can see how it could benefit some people.

[@afredpost1293]

What if you don't have a tank? Can you install both hoses under the sink?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

The product, as it comes, doesn't have the right adapters to hook up both cold and hot water lines under a sink (the thread size on a toilet tank is different than most US sink hookups). That said, you could probably get that setup to work using one or two adapters to step down the cold water T-valve to the 3/8" thread of the sink's cold water line.

[@MAR-gd8zb]

Thank you for the video.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

You bet!

[@jazzskunk91]

What brand toilet seat is that? My seat is curved while the frame for the bidet is flat, making it so I cant fasten the seat without it tilted at an angle.

[@naturally_bossy]

How did you get the hot water house through the wall?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

I drilled a 1/4" hole in the side of my cabinet and fed the tubing through it.

[@adcinco]

Does it possible to change the control panel side?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

No, unfortunately the controls can only be installed on the right hand side of the seat.

[@mbandrade5262]

Right to the point and clear instructions 👍🏾

[@ReviewedByPhil]

I appreciate that!

[@patadamik2218]

Can the hot line be hooked directly to the hwt line instead of sink?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

The included adapter is sized for an undersink standard pipe diameter, so you may need a different size adapter? I don't know exactly what alternative "hot line" you're referring to. I'm just curious, where else do you have a hot water line accessible in your bathroom that you can attach the bidet to?

[@chongpooka2769]

Don’t you still need paper to dry your hole area though?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

That, or a towel, which is usually what they have next to bidets in hotels in Europe.

[@motzkeksalarm]

My toilet tank is not accessible to me, because it is hidden within the wall. Would it be possible to connect both the hot and cold water tubes to the sink for the bidet to work, as you did with the hot water tube? Or is the toilet tank connection absolutely necessary?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Theoretically, you can do this, but you would require different sized adapters than what is included with the kit. The cold water line under the sink is typically not the same pipe/thread size as the cold water line leading into the toilet tank. So you would need to purchase a second t-valve and perhaps additional rubber tubing, similar to the hookups for the hot water.

[@motzkeksalarm]

ReviewedByPhil Thank you very much for your help :)

[@slippyg]

I was thinking running it on cleaning mode to get the hot water to the device the change to bidet spray mode. Wouldn't that be better ?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Yes, if you want to warm up the water, running it in cleaning mode works too. It would also flush any cold water already in the line to the bidet.

[@jesuscastro6038]

Does it use battery or power?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

No, it doesn't require any batteries or electricity. The only thing it needs to function is the water pressure from your water lines.

[@katekiddo1714]

I don’t understand. Do I absolutely have to connect it to the sink? If it’s electric, shouldn’t it heat the water without a hot water line? I mean, hot water doesn’t come out of my sink right away.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

So, the bidet in this video is not electric. You'll notice that at no point do I have to "plug" anything into an outlet, nor does it have batteries. All of the movements of the device are due to water pressure only. For that reason, it cannot heat up water and must be connected to a hot water line for hot water, typically only found under the sink in most bathrooms.

[@katekiddo1714]

⁠​⁠​⁠@@ReviewedByPhilright, of course. I guess I didn’t explain that all the “how to” videos I’ve found so far were all connecting to the sink, regardless of electric outlet. So that’s where I’m confused

[@ReviewedByPhil]

@@katekiddo1714 If you're installing an electric bidet, with instant or "unlimited" warm water as a feature, then these typically do not need to be connected to the hot water line under your sink. The heating element powered by the electrical socket should be sufficient to warm up cold water at the point of use so would generally be fed from a splitter off the cold water line that fills the toilet tank.

[@katekiddo1714]

@@ReviewedByPhil thank you so much!

[@venkateshiyer6055]

Amazing video!

[@laurabishop917]

I can’t get the hot water to work at all any suggestions? I installed it the exact same way, but when I turn the temp to hot the water pressure turns off and it doesn’t work.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Hm, does the T-valve you have connected to your hot water line have a diverter? This would look like a small shutoff handle that controls how much how water is passed to the sink versus the bidet. If it does have one, it sounds like it is turned off and you'll need to turn the handle to the 'on' position. If you T-valve is like mine (1:56), and doesn't have a diverter, then it sounds like hot/cold water control on the bidet itself may be blocked. Make sure there isn't a plug in the hot water line side of the bidet before you attach the hot water line (see 1:31 and 2:11).

[@kaisykaisy]

Thank you very much. Good help for me

[@kards17]

What do you recommend for if there is a leak? Followed it to the tee and still there’s a leak

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Hm, at which connection are you experiencing a leak? You can try use a couple wraps of plumber's Teflon tape on the threads of the connection that is giving you a problem before attaching the hose. Just be sure to wrap the threads in a clockwise direction.

[@vivianmuse4809]

Use plumber's tape

[@AlAl-im5ff]

[@DonaldAJr]

Thank you for explaining this as well as you did. I know I researched this not long ago but wasn't smart enough to look for videos.

[@genkatqltr737]

How much weight can the bidet support, like 250 lbs or over? Is it likely to crack or break soon?

[@brenda1braun]

[@frieswdatshake]

Hi, I installed a very similar bidet with the help of your video. Unfortunately, there are leaks where the cold water hose from the wall connects to the T adapter and where the hot water hose connects to the T adapter under the sink. I used the rubber washers as instructed. Is there anything I can do to stop the leaks? Also when I shut the water valves off the water still leaked as I was assembling even though they were turned as far as they could go. Any advice for these issues? I'd greatly appreciate it! Thank you.

[@ReviewedByPhil]

Hm, if the valves continued to leak after the water was shut off as tight as it could go, this usually indicates that the valve seals are degraded due to buildup or corrosion and the valves themselves should be replaced. If the leak is small, like a slow drip, most folks simply skip doing this as it's easy to work around the issue, as it's a bigger headache to have to do the valve replacement. I usually try and replace any full-turn shut off valves (the kind you have to rotate several times to shut off fully) with 1/4-turn valves like these: geni.us/QmN0cP [Amazon Affiliate Product Link], since I feel these tend to have fewer issues down the line. The leaks at the bidet connection to the t-valve can usually be solved by tightening that connection with an adjustable wrench (make sure the water is off before adjusting the tightness of the connectors). The rule of thumb here is to detach the hose, drain the line of any residual water, then reconnect the hose ensuring it's as tight as you can get it on by hand, followed by tightening the connection using a wrench another 1/4 - 1/2 revolution. This should be sufficient to create a water tight connection, provided the rubber washer is intact (no tears or defects). If you still see water leaking after making the connections in this manner, it's possible that the connector or the t-valve has a defect in which the threads don't line up or seal properly, and if the case, sometimes this can be remedied using a small amount of plumber's Teflon tape (2-3 wraps max around the threads at the leaking connection) or that component would need to the swapped out with a functioning one.

[@frieswdatshake]

Thank you so much for your reply. It was the threads not lining up. Because of the position of the pipes under my sink the added length of the T adapter threw things off ever so slightly. The teflon tape did the trick! The leak from the shut off valve wasn't too much of an impediment. Thanks again!

[@MsCocoaCyril]

When you hook up the cold water line to the bottom of the tank. Does water flow from the tank to the buttocks or directly from the water line ? Silly question please answer if you can. Could the t connector be connected closer to the on off valve?

[@ReviewedByPhil]

The water to the bidet diverts directly from the cold water line and does not pass through the tank first. Because the T-valve attached directly to the toilet tank, it is not possible to change its location.

[@MsCocoaCyril]

ReviewedByPhil Thank you.
