Good afternoon, dear guests and subscribers of the "Build for Myself" channel!
At the project stage, looking at the dimensions of the drawing, we believe that everything is rational and practical, but upon the arrangement of the bathroom turns out that usable area we do not have enough - on the way to the toilet we touch the sink sideways, and while sitting on the toilet - knees rest.
And in this article I will talk aboutminimumcomfortable indents (distances from the toilet bowl to adjacent fences and objects), which will allow without problems move around the toilet room, because we use this room every day and spend a sufficient number of time!
The main mistake is that when a person estimates the size of the toilet bowl, he sits on it and measures his comfortable centimeters with a tape measure in each direction. But, we must not forget that men are still standing near the toilet :-))) That is why, a convenient indent to the edge of the toilet bowl from the front wall (to the door or other sanitary appliance) is 65 cm. (according to the norms, the minimum is taken as 53 cm.)
Thus, the length of the toilet room should be 1.4 m, since the toilet itself with the cistern is, on average, 700 mm long. and a small gap between the cistern and the back wall (0.75 + 0.65 = 1.4).
For installations, the dimensions of the tank can be neglected.
Toilet room width
People have different configurations and physiques, therefore, for the most obese person to use the toilet with comfort in different positions, 80 cm is enough for him. But, you cannot make such a bathroom!
The whole question comes down to the front wall, on which the door is most often installed. The minimum size of the door leaf is 60 cm, while the box and platbands will steal another 15-17 cm, thus with a room width of 80 cm. we will get a door, standing right next to the walls, which you must admit is not very beautiful. Therefore, the width of the toilet room starts from 90 cm.
The comfortable width, so that the space does not constrain and you can place your elbows and not bang against the walls, is 1 m.
Toilet not centered
If the decision is made to place the toilet not in the center of the toilet room, then there is no problem. The comfortable distance so as not to touch the wall with your knee is 20 cm. from the side of the toilet to the wall. If a paper holder hangs on this wall at knee level, then you should step back a little more.
Important!
If there is a hygienic shower next to the toilet, then a mini-sink must be hung in the bathroom. is from 150 to 250 mm., respectively, so that it does not stick out behind the doorway, the width of the bathroom unit should be increased by 10 cm.
Thank you for your attention and good luck with the repair!
