1. First Things: Will a Smart Toilet Fit Your Bathroom?

Before choosing a smart toilet, the most important step is confirming whether your bathroom is suitable for installation. Unlike traditional toilets, smart toilets may require both plumbing compatibility and access to a nearby power outlet.

• If you're replacing an existing toilet with a full smart toilet suite or buy a new smart toilet for new house, there are two key factors to confirm before purchasing:

1. Plumbing Compatibility (Set Out Size)

The most important measurement is the set out size — the distance between the finished wall and the centre of the waste outlet.

Selecting the correct set out is essential to ensure the smart toilet can be installed properly without requiring major plumbing alterations.

2. Electrical Requirements

Unlike traditional toilets, most smart toilets require access to a nearby standard power outlet to operate functions.

An electrician may be required to install one prior to installation, if there is no existing power point near the toilet area.

If you're upgrading with a smart toilet seat only, compatibility with your existing toilet pan should also be checked carefully, including:

(A) Measure from cistern front to bowl front

(B) Measure the distance between the seat bolt holes

(C) Measure inside the bowl (front to back)

(D) Measure from bolt hole centre to bowl front

Check: water tap behind toilet & access to seat bolts

Write your measurements:
(A): ___ cm   |   (B): ___ cm   |   (C): ___ cm   |   (D): ___ cm

3. Which Smart Toilet Features Actually Matter?

Many smart toilets come with long feature lists, but not every function improves daily life in a meaningful way.

The best smart toilet is not necessarily the one with the most features — it's the one that improves your everyday experience without overcomplicating things.

4. Why Smart Toilets Are More Affordable Than Ever

One of the biggest reasons behind the rise of smart toilets is simple: prices have become far more accessible.

A few years ago, smart toilets were viewed as luxury products reserved for premium homes and hotels. Today, improved manufacturing and increased competition have dramatically lowered the entry barrier.

5. Are Smart Toilets Expensive to Run?

This is one of the most common customer concerns — but modern smart toilets are designed with efficiency in mind.

• Low-power heating systems
• Eco standby modes
• Water-saving flush technology
• Optimised energy consumption

In most households, the running cost remains relatively low and does not significantly increase utility bills.

💡 Over the 10+ year lifespan of the toilet, these savings add up to over $1,100 — effectively offsetting the small upfront premium of a smart toilet.

What was once considered a luxury upgrade is now becoming part of mainstream bathroom design.
