Smart Toilet Install - Step by Step!

[@johnsmiths9682]

I love the way you say you ”just” do this and you ”only” have to do that lol. The whole system is complicated and beyond the reach of your standard DIYer, but great video and shows that a decent plumber / advanced DIYer could do this job.

[@gregp1707]

I’ve been looking forward to this video ever since you did the live stream of you fitting the radiator pipes in that downstairs toilet. I was not disappointed! Other than I have just renovated my own downstairs toilet with a wall hung pan and now I wish I’d installed this beast instead 😢😢😢

[@boatlover8856]

Great video!!! I never knew of such a toilet! Thanks

[@janstafford1490]

Was impressed with Gebrit and that was 20 years back so similar but do like the springs ‘pushed tight’ a few steps forward nice one. Respect for your endurance on blaaaaack effin grout. Don’t you just love it when companies think and don’t just buskit. You besties VitrA

[@albertbusscher4270]

I was only made aware of these a few days ago as someone had seen then in the Melbourne casino and looked it up on the web. Plumbing has surely changed since my time. I don't think I would have been able to keep up with it all. I go back to lead, cast iron etc. Greetings from Australia

[@MadDog_Rules]

Late to this video. Can i ask you, did you connect the smart toilet to the RCD consumer unit and also, what is the transformer for?

[@waxonflaxon]

Probably step down to the voltage of the electrical system the bidet uses

[@johnwarner4513]

Brilliant, common sense video, as ever, and a top tradesman.👍

[@oninbridders]

Nice to see this chap again

[@chrispratt93]

Videos are always awesome, helpful always

[@cottagekeeper]

Very cool - what do you do if your waste is set in concrete on your previous commode? Also, what happens if you lose power? How do you repair, do you have to tear out all that tile?

[@alanmurray2353]

Great video, have been considering fitting this design of toilet, you have swayed my decision in affirmative direction. Have you any tips on changing concealed mixer to bar mixer with drencher plus flexible outlet for simplifying cleaning.

@@VitrABathrooms1 as another viewer has also asked, where can we get this particular frame from as all stockists only seem to stock the frames without the conduits?

[@chrishodgins38]

@@VitrABathrooms1 how much are these toilets please ? Really interested in fitting one in my bathroom which I’m soon refurbing. Cheers.

[@oxharp]

Hi, Could you please let me know if you could come and fit this toilet for me or recommend a reliable plumber in the Oxfordshire area. D.o you now if the floor standing one has a frame? thanks great video

[@mobilefiscus]

Just been reading about the fancy toilet seats and how they need an airgap, not a double check valve. How does the Vitra and your install deal with that? Ta

[@VitrABathrooms1]

Great question! Our V-Care Prime has a new flex-hose that has a non-return valve inside to prevent back filling 🚽

[@johnberesford9301]

Fantastic work

[@anthonysalisbury6945]

Followed your last vitra install.....purchased vitra...and have to agree was brilliant to install! Thanks for the help

I know I’m getting old when I’m jealous of a toilet 😩

[@zxmtzxmt]

What model is that cistern? Thanks!

[@mitraderis2340]

our electronic toile works beautifully but we can not get enough water coming through the washer nozzle, despite having a water pump in the house. what is the problem please?

[@sheilaearl9479]

Hi , I have just had a smart toilet installed with the a Vitra Automatic flush plate. Plumber has left it without flushing! The shop got the automatic flush working. The plumber had to come back to correct things. Now the automatic flush is not working. Is it a case of just powering off toilet , waiting for 15 mins ad putting back on or is there something different I must do. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you

[@hawkins7331]

Wow! That's how I imagine the toilet would be on the starship enterprise....

[@nickcollins7568]

Looks like a fantastic install and toilet. Just a little too complicated for my liking. What could possibly go wrong a year or 2 later🤔 Then it would probably be a nightmare to fix if one had to remove tiles

[@Sparks1Plumbers0]

Nah.... don't sweat it. If something were to go wrong, James would just ask the supplier for another [free to him] unit. 🤫 Plus as a bonus... it'd give him the opportunity to get rid of them hideous tiles with that equally hideous black grout. 😉 🤣🤣🤣

[@jeffsmith2144]

Don't know at what quality Turkish enamel is, if its made there. Can't beat V&B or Grohe TBH.

[@voltev435]

Where can you buy the frame from in UK??

[@sergiofernandez3725]

Designed with the installer in mind. Don't get that very often

[@musicmadnessash]

How would you gain access to assess a leak?

[@malcb1864]

Can you use this with a macerator?

[@darrenmackenzie1892]

Hi James. Been watching you since you started out on you tube. I'm curious if your still relying heavily on your self employment as a plumber or r u now making enough through you tube to work on the tools part time ? Cheers

[@plumberparts]

Hi Darren. Like a lot of things you have to make a call to balance time between the two. Therefore I now work very locally for my current friends and customers and now don’t go looking for new work in the world of plumbing. Strangely, doing PP means I do far more wide ranging plumbing jobs! Regardless I’m thankful you still watch the channel, and hope you enjoy my other ventures @lifeindeep and @timeswithjames

Where to buy the frame? It appears on Vitra UK website but no one sells them?

[@raulgil8459]

[@offbeatwarble]

What's the purpose / advantage of using wedi board?

[@JamesKooper]

Main benefit is that it's completely waterproof unlike MRP which will eventually disintigrate if there's a leak behind it or in a shower where the grout has failed.

[@Sparks1Plumbers0]

Advantages are... water resistant properties... partially insulated ... rigid flat surface less prone to flexing/breaking like basic plasterboard products and offers a textured surface to aid tiling. 🤔

[@stevenb007]

​@@Sparks1Plumbers0is there a risk of compression due to the foam core? Surely the weight of the toilet, plus user, will squash the boards and crack the tiles?

[@mixer1014]

Geberit has already done a lot of this before.

[@darrenmackenzie1892]

Full cost of this type of toilet please?

[@VitrABathrooms1]

Our V-Care Prime costs £3,248. We do have other models in the V-Care range and the prices start from £2,145 🚽
