Eco-friendly & Luxurious: The Benefits of a Bidet Toilet

The Top Reasons You Should Upgrade to a Bidet Toilet

There’s no real way to improve a toilet, right? Absolutely wrong! The modern toilet has come a long way to include many added features. Even the smallest bathrooms can benefit by upgrading to a shower toilet. A bidet toilet, also known as a shower toilet, Japanese toilet or washlet, combines a regular toilet's functions with a bidet's cleaning abilities and an air drier in a single device that is operated by a wall panel, smartphone, or remote. The bathroom professionals at Eqwep have put together this helpful guide to provide you all the information you need to know about these cutting-edge bathroom fixtures in case you've been thinking about switching or are simply curious.

Save money and positively impact the environment with an eco-friendly bidet toilet

Did you know that manufacturing a single roll of toilet paper requires 37 gallons of water, 1.5 pounds of wood and 1.3 KWh of electricity? The inbuilt bidet system of a shower toilet comfortably sprays your underwear while you use it, eliminating the need for toilet paper and leaving you feeling clean and fresh. A bidet toilet often results in a 75% reduction in toilet paper usage.

Dramatically reduce water consumption with a bidet toilet

Not only does a shower toilet reduce toilet paper consumption, and the water needed to produce a single roll of toilet paper, but it also greatly reduces your water consumption. Older toilets can use between 5-7 gallons of water per flush, while newer toilets are designed to use 1.5-2 gallons per flush.

Philippe Starck is the designer of the self-cleaning, automatic Duravit SensoWash® Starck Plus compact bidet toilet. The toilet has a modern, sleek appearance that is typical of Starck's designs.  SensoWash® Starck Plus is a highly practical and hygienic bathroom solution thanks to its many functions. After each use, the self-cleaning feature cleans the bowl using a solution of water, detergent, and UV light. Additionally, it contains an air filtration system that eliminates odors and an automatic flushing system. 

The Duravit SensoWash® Starck Plus has a glossy white surface and measures 57.5 cm in depth and 37.8 cm in breadth. For those seeking a compact toilet with cutting-edge features, a contemporary, and stylish style, it is the ideal choice.

Create more space with concealed fittings

One of the more common reasons for upgrading to a bidet toilet is to create more space. Most bidet toilets are wall-hung with concealed fittings, which provides a little extra space in your washroom. This additional space can be used for storage, decorations, or simply reducing the cluttered feeling in your current wc toilet. Best of all, they typically can be installed easily in place of your existing toilet.

Experience a deeper level of clean with a bidet toilet

Water is an essential part of the cleaning process, so why should it be different with the toilet? One of the defining features of an integrated shower toilet is its bidet. Unlike older toilet models, which require a separate bidet, shower toilets come fully equipped with an internal buddy system. Think of it as a two-in-one system with integrated electronic bidet that requires little to no effort to operate. For those of you who don’t already know, a bidet is a nozzle that sends water to the user’s nether regions with the purpose of rinsing and cleansing. 

The VitrA V-care smart toilet comes with integrated multifunctional hygiene features, adjustable seat temperatures, dryer with adjustable air temperatures, automatic lid, and air purification features. The automatic lid allows you to use the toilet without having to touch the lid and risk getting your hands dirty. The drying features also help to increase hygiene and provide a more pleasant experience than drying with toilet paper. 

Experience a comfortable bathroom trip with customizable, high-tech features

Motion sensors to open the toilet lid automatically, light features to see in the dark, and heated seats are just some of many customizable high-tech features you can include in your shower toilet. Aside from the many innovative features, bidet toilets are designed with a sleek, stylish, and modern aesthetic to enhance the look of your bathroom. Some of the common features included in your shower toilet include:  

 Bidet spray wash (front and/or back wash)
 Air drying
 Automatic stop
 Air deodorizer
 Automatic lid and seat
 Timer
 Self-cleaning and nozzle sterilization
 Night lights
 Heated seats
 Sound machine
 Adjustable water temperature
 Energy saving standby feature


Effortless cleaning and maintenance with a bidet toilet


Do all those fancy features make it challenging to clean a bidet toilet? Absolutely not! Most bidet toilets have built-in self-cleaning options. When you upgrade to a shower toilet, you’ll spend less time cleaning it compared to a standard toilet model. Many models, such as the Duravit Starck, include a self-cleaning spray wand with concealed connections and descaling function. Thanks to the shower toilet can spend your time on something you enjoy, rather than cleaning the bowl!
