Find the perfect toilet for your bathroom from the selection of toilets and toilet tank accessories at Ace. Whether you're building a new bathroom, renovating an old one or simply replacing a toilet, we provide a look at standard bathroom toilet features to help you choose the right fixture for your space.
Is a Toilet the Same as a Commode?
The main difference to note between a toilet and a commode is that a bathroom commode benefits those who may need assistance in using the bathroom, whether as a result of injury, illness or any number of other ailments. They may be attached to an assisted walking unit, which may or may not use wheels.
However, despite the differences between toilets and commodes, people have come to use both words to refer to the same thing: the standard toilet.
Tips for Choosing the Right Bathroom Toilet
When you're shopping for a new bathroom toilet, there are a few key features to explore before you settle on a design. Consider these useful tips for help in finding the right toilet for your space.
- Measure your toilet bowl and tank: If you're replacing a toilet, take note of the size and design to help you find a similar fit. Check the height, length and shape of your toilet tanks and bowls to be sure any new fixture will fit comfortably in your bathroom.
- Choose the toilet bowl height: Although your space may not allow for it, a high toilet bowl is popular with taller individuals and those who are seeking increased comfort.
- Pick a toilet bowl shape: A standard toilet round bowl is slightly smaller and ideal for more compact spaces, while elongated toilet bowl designs offer a comfortable alternative with more space to sit.
- Select your toilet seat: Whether elongated or round, find toilet seats in a variety of colors, finishes and materials, including molded wood and plastic. Additionally, you can filter through soft seats for both adults and children to find your preferred comfort seating.
- Browse flush strengths: Commercial toilets with a high volume of traffic typically require a stronger flush power, while home bathrooms can work comfortably with a wider range of flush strengths depending on household size.
- Bidet toilet addition: Easily attaching to your toilet water supply, bidet support additions are a great alternative to more expensive full bidet option.
Ace offers a range of innovative brands to help you save water and money. Shop standard toilet models as well as low-flow flush options and dual-flush designs to maximize your water efficiency.
