Setup Instructions
Installation of the TOTO CT708U wall-mounted toilet bowl requires professional plumbing expertise. It is crucial to follow all local plumbing codes and regulations. The following steps provide a general overview; always refer to the detailed installation guide provided with your flushometer valve and wall carrier system.
- Prepare Wall Carrier: Ensure a compatible wall-mounted toilet carrier system (not included) is securely installed within the wall according to its manufacturer's instructions. This carrier provides the necessary support and plumbing connections.
- Connect Flushometer Valve: Install the 1.0 GPF flushometer valve (not included) to the top spud connection of the toilet bowl. Ensure all connections are watertight and secure.
- Mount Toilet Bowl: Carefully lift and align the toilet bowl with the mounting bolts extending from the wall carrier. Secure the bowl using the provided nuts and washers, ensuring it is level and stable. Do not overtighten.
- Seal Connections: Apply a silicone sealant around the perimeter of the toilet bowl where it meets the finished wall surface to prevent moisture intrusion and provide a clean finish.
- Install Toilet Seat: Attach a compatible elongated toilet seat (not included) to the bowl according to the seat manufacturer's instructions.
- Test Operation: Once installation is complete, slowly turn on the water supply to the flushometer valve and check for any leaks. Perform several test flushes to ensure proper operation and water flow.
Operating Instructions
The TOTO CT708U toilet bowl is designed for use with a 1.0 GPF flushometer valve, which typically operates with a sensor or a manual push-button mechanism. Ensure the flushometer valve is properly installed and connected to the water supply.
- Automatic Flushing (Sensor-Activated): If your flushometer valve is sensor-activated, the toilet will flush automatically after use. Simply move away from the sensor's detection range to initiate the flush cycle.
- Manual Flushing (Push-Button): For manual flushometer valves, press the flush button located on the valve to activate the flush. A single press is usually sufficient for a full flush.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your TOTO CT708U toilet bowl.
- Cleaning the Bowl: Use a mild, non-abrasive toilet bowl cleaner and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or wire brushes, as these can damage the ceramic surface.
- Exterior Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces of the toilet bowl with a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner.
- Flushometer Maintenance: Refer to the maintenance instructions provided with your specific flushometer valve for cleaning and servicing.
- Inspect for Leaks: Periodically check all connections for any signs of leaks. Address any leaks promptly to prevent water damage.
