FAQs
What plumbing modifications are required to install a smart bidet seat on my existing toilet?
In most cases only minor changes are needed. We shut off the water, remove the old toilet seat, mount the bidet seat’s bracket, and add a T-valve at the existing ⅜-inch supply line so the tank and bidet share the same cold-water source. No new drain lines are required because the bidet seat uses the toilet’s bowl. If your shut-off valve is corroded or the supply line is older than 10 years, we recommend replacing them during the visit to avoid leaks.
Do I need a dedicated electrical outlet for a smart bidet seat, and can you install one?
Yes. Every smart bidet seat needs a grounded 120-volt GFCI outlet within 3–4 feet of the toilet. If your bathroom doesn’t already have one, our licensed electricians can install a tamper-resistant GFCI receptacle that meets the 2020 NEC and the City of Elizabethton’s inspection requirements. We run wiring through the wall or crawl space to keep it hidden and can usually add the outlet the same day as the plumbing work.
Can a smart bidet seat fit any toilet model, or will I need to replace the entire toilet?
Most elongated two-piece toilets accept today’s bidet seats without issue. Round-front bowls and one-piece ‘French curve’ designs sometimes interfere with the seat’s water supply inlet or mounting plate. During our on-site assessment we measure the bowl length, bolt-spread, and tank height. If your current fixture is incompatible, we’ll recommend an ADA-height, WaterSense-certified replacement that pairs perfectly with the bidet seat you choose.
How long does a typical smart bidet seat installation or full toilet replacement take in Elizabethton?
A straightforward bidet seat retrofit takes 60–90 minutes, including leak testing and user training. A complete toilet removal and replacement with a new smart seat averages 2–3 hours, depending on flooring, flange condition, and whether we’re adding an electrical outlet. We schedule in two-hour arrival windows, so most customers have a fully functioning, freshly caulked toilet by lunchtime.
Are permits required for toilet replacements or plumbing changes in Elizabethton, and will you handle them?
A simple swap of a like-for-like toilet generally does not require a city plumbing permit, but adding a new electrical circuit, relocating supply lines, or replacing the closet flange may. We check the scope of work against Carter County and City of Elizabethton codes, pull any necessary permits, and coordinate the final inspection so you stay fully compliant without lifting a finger.
What maintenance and warranty services do you offer after installing a smart bidet seat or new toilet?
All installations include a one-year labor warranty backed by our licensed and insured plumbing team. Bidet seats come with the manufacturer’s 1-to-3-year parts warranty; we register the product for you and handle any claims. At the six-month mark we offer a complimentary check-up to clean the inlet filter, test the GFCI, and inspect the supply hose. Annual descaling and filter replacement packages are also available to combat Elizabethton’s moderately hard water and keep your bidet operating like new.
