The Entire Process of Mobile Toilet Translation

The translation of a mobile toilet (toilet bowl) requires selecting an appropriate method based on the translation distance, building structure, and requirements. Common solutions and steps are as follows:

I. Using a Toilet Offset Connector (Short-distance translation, within 100-350mm)

1. Purchase a finished toilet offset connector: Choose an offset connector with an oval flat pipe for the horizontal pipe and a height of approximately 60mm to ensure compatibility with the original sewage pipe interface.
2. Chisel out the floor slab: Before waterproofing, chisel out 20-40mm of the floor slab to provide space for embedding the offset connector.
3. Embed the offset connector: Connect one end to the original toilet sewage pipe and extend the other end to the target position. If the translation distance exceeds 300mm, set a slope of more than 3% at the embedding point to prevent blockages caused by poor drainage.
4. Pour the floor and waterproofing: Pour the floor and apply waterproofing to a height of approximately 20mm, ensuring the waterproof layer covers the connection point of the offset connector.
5. Lay tiles: Lay tiles normally to a height of approximately 30mm to restore floor flatness.
6. Install the toilet: Complete the final installation and test the drainage effect.

II. Same-floor Drainage - Floor Slab Lowering (Suitable for bathrooms with lowered floor slabs)

1. Confirm the lowered floor slab structure: If the bathroom floor slab is already recessed by 250-350mm, the toilet and drain opening positions can be directly arranged without additional raising or chiseling of the floor.
2. Plan the pipes: Use a sloped tee to connect the sewage pipe, avoiding the problem of easy blockage with a straight tee, to ensure smooth drainage.
3. Backfill material: Use lightweight bricks or blocks for backfilling to reduce the load on the floor slab and facilitate subsequent maintenance.
   Advantages: Free translation without position restrictions; Disadvantages: Only suitable for buildings with lowered floor slabs.

III. Same-floor Drainage - Floor Slab Raising (Suitable for individuals without mobility issues)

1. Arrange the horizontal sewage pipe: Use a pipe with a diameter of approximately 110mm to ensure drainage capacity.
2. Build the base platform: Use lightweight blocks to build a base platform with a height of 180-200mm and embed the sewage pipe to provide a foundation for toilet installation.
3. Floor construction: Normally perform floor leveling, waterproofing, and tile laying to restore floor functionality.
   Advantages: Long translation distance and flexible layout; Disadvantages: Raising the floor affects use by the elderly and involves a large amount of work.

IV. Hidden Cistern (Wall-mounted, suitable for long-distance translation)

1. Purchase accessories: Choose hidden cisterns and accessories from professional brands (such as Geberit) to ensure reliable quality.
2. Install the vertical pipe tee: Connect the horizontal sewage pipe to the target position to optimize the drainage path.
3. Install the cistern: Fix the cistern and connect it to the sewage pipe to ensure tightness.
4. Build a low wall: Enclose the cistern and pipes with a wall thickness of 180-220mm and a height of 900-1200mm, balancing aesthetics and practicality.
5. Install the toilet: Choose between a wall-mounted or floor-mounted toilet based on space requirements.
   Advantages: Large translation distance, aesthetically pleasing, and easy to clean; Disadvantages: Cannot be translated to the diagonal wall of the sewage vertical pipe or positions with other vertical pipes on the outside.

V. Inter-floor Drainage - Modifying Drainage at the Neighbor's House (Requires neighborhood consultation)

1. Negotiate the modification: Communicate with the downstairs neighbor to modify the sewage pipe at the top of their bathroom, signing a written agreement to clarify responsibilities.
2. Waterproofing and trap: Ensure proper waterproofing and install a trap to prevent odors during the modification, avoiding leakage or odor problems.
   Advantages: Unlimited translation distance; Disadvantages: Dependent on neighborhood relations, complex construction, and may involve property management approval.

Summary: For short distances, prioritize using a toilet offset connector; for buildings with lowered floor slabs, choose same-floor drainage with floor slab lowering; for long distances or aesthetic requirements, choose a hidden cistern; for special cases, negotiate inter-floor drainage modifications. Before construction, confirm the building structure and property management requirements to ensure compliance and safety.
