Jika offers several types of toilet bowls, which allows users to choose the best one depending on their personal preferences. Let's consider each variety in more detail.

This group of toilet bowls is the most demanded and popular. Their peculiarity lies in the fact that they are fixed to the floor and also have a large cistern. Typically, floor-standing straight options are made from materials such as sanitary porcelain, ceramics and sanitary ware. If we consider exclusive models, then artificial stone and copper are worth noting. Floor standing toilets are characterized by practicality, stylish design and optimal dimensions.

Installation of floor plumbing does not take much time, because it is carried out with the help of anchors. If you need to dismantle the product, then the process is also quite simple. The company offers several lines of floor-standing toilets - Lyra, Vega, Era, Tigo and Olymp. They have a different design and volume. They are often used for location in small spaces. Floor standing models can support up to 400 kg.

This group of toilets saves space, therefore it is often purchased for small spaces. They attract attention with their luxurious appearance. Wall-mounted toilets also have the following advantages:

• the floor covering under the toilet does not receive any impact and does not deteriorate;
• it is quite easy to clean under mounted models;
• if desired, floor insulation can be made;
• the maximum weight of a person sitting on them can be up to 400 kg.

The company offers separate compact models for exceptionally small spaces. Usually, such toilets are complemented by a false design and they are called bidets.

Many people are attracted by Jika's compact toilets. This is an intermediate option between mounted and classic models. Their main advantage lies in their compact size. Usually, it is not only the bowl that attracts compactness - the drain tank also has small dimensions. Quite often, compact toilets are placed in a corner, and some models are just corner ones. The bowl can be of different heights.

Toilet bowls are presented in the assortment of the Jika company attached and rimless, with oblique outlet, double drain and so on.

When choosing the optimal model, it is worth starting from the dimensions of the room where it will be mounted. For a large toilet, you can use any option.
