Toilet lid with microlift Slim, thermoplastic Sanpreis

The microlift is a function in the toilet lid itself, which ensures a very smooth lowering of the lid. You can compare such a system with an automatic door closer on doors or furniture.

A microlift is a mechanism that consists of a spring with a rod and hinges. These mechanisms are selected taking into account the weight of the toilet lid itself. Lowering the toilet lid is carried out by means of a spring, and the stem holds it in the upper or lower position.

By purchasing a toilet lid with a microlift, you get silence and comfort in use, as well as prolong the service life of both the lid and the toilet itself.  

In order not to make a mistake in choosing a seat, you need to measure the bowl of the toilet bowl. Take a piece of paper and write down three sizes:

• the distance between the centers of the mounting holesdistance from the center of the mounting hole to the edge of the toilet bowl
• the width of the toilet bowl from the left to the right edge
• Based on these parameters, then you need to determine the shape of your toilet bowl.

Further, according to the available data, you can pick up a seat.

To select a seat, use an online calculator.

Toilet seats are made of plastic, which has several varieties: thermoplastics and duroplast, as well as wood and metal. 

• Duroplast – looks more like ceramics, which makes it look expensive and high-quality. Duroplast toilet seats are distinguished by their special strength, resistance to aggressive chemicals. 
• Thermoplastics are the advantage of such seats: easy maintenance and low cost. Thermoplastic toilet covers are easily scratched, due to their low strength and rigidity, and have a shorter service life. 
• Metal seats are installed in public places, trains, train stations, their price is much higher than that of plastic, so metal toilet covers are made to order
• Wooden toilet seats are handmade, they are very delicate in maintenance, wood is afraid of water, so when choosing a seat made of wood, you need to think carefully before buying.

All models are different, both in functionality and material, and in price. By functionality, the most popular seats with a microlift. If you choose by material, then most of the buyers prefer models made of duroplast. Also, the "2b1" models with a child's cover-pad gained great popularity. This seat is suitable for the whole family, and will teach children to the toilet.

• We insert plastic sealing bushings into the mounting holes of the toilet bowl
• We install sealing rubber pads in the microlifts
• We put microlifts on top of the mounting holes of the toilet
• We put washers on the mounting bolts and insert them into the holes in the microlifts (while adjusting the mounting distance for the seat installation)
• After adjusting the distance, we fix the position of our attachment by tightening the bolts with a screwdriver
• We put protective "cups" on top of the mount
• We install the seat studs in the mounting holes of the toilet.

Done.

In order to remove an ordinary toilet seat without the quick removal function, it is necessary:

• Lift the toilet lid, while the seat remains in the lowered state.
• From the bottom left and right under the back porcelain edge of the toilet bowl, unscrew the mounting nuts (plastic nuts can usually be easily unscrewed by hand).
• Remove the toilet seat together with the lid from the toilet.

Polypropylene and duroplast are varieties of modern plastic alloy. It's just that polypropylene is a lighter material, roughly speaking, ordinary plastic. While the duroplast is more expensive and stronger, which serves a fairly long period of time.
