Three top reasons to convert to a bidet toilet seat

Published

on

Bidets are widely used in many countries, but they’re almost impossible to find in North America. That may be changing now that Japanese-style bidet toilet seats are gaining in popularity.

Here are three reasons to install a bidet toilet seat in your bathroom:

1. They’re environmentally friendly. A bidet toilet seat with an air-drying feature eliminates any need for toilet paper, which can save millions of trees.

2. They’re more hygienic. Cleaning yourself with water is more effective than wiping with toilet paper and can help stop the spread of bacteria.

3. They reduce plumbing issues. Using less toilet paper means there’s a decreased chance of clogging the toilet.

If you’re interested in having a bidet toilet seat in your home, there are many options available to you, from inexpensive nozzles that attach to a normal seat to high-end, heated seats with controls for the temperature and flow of water and even a dryer.

One thing’s for sure, once you’ve used one a few times, you’ll never want to go back to a regular toilet.
