Should You Add a Bidet to Your Bathroom Renovation?

While Bidets are not common in the USA, they are very popular in other parts of the world and it may be time for you to consider one. You can get a Toto bidet toilet seat, a bidet attachment or a handheld bidet or an electronic bidet toilet seat or just a bidet. In this Complete Home Remodeling Guide we will introduce you to the bidet.

So what is a bidet?

A bidet or bid-day is a small low basin that is used for washing yourself after using the toilet. It is normally located right next to a toilet and is used instead of toilet paper. The bidet is used throughout Europe, East Asia, the Middle East, Latin America and China and can be a little intimidating at first use.

To many the bidet is considered much more sanitary than merely using toilet paper after using the toilet. Bidet is a French word for a device that propels a gentle stream of water toward your genitals and anal for cleaning purposes. Bidets are dedicated solely to helping people better clean themselves and requires paying close attention to and touching one’s genitalia after urination or bowel movements.

Many feel that using the bidet is better than using toilet paper and leaves you fresher and cleaner. The bidet is also clearly helpful for people with hemorrhoids, diarrhea or rashes which toilet paper can aggravate. Some new homes in the States are now coming equipped with bidets due to increased travel, immigration, and availability of information about the genital hygiene that the Bidet promotes.
