If you are still comparing the different options, read our complete guide to bidets in Australia before choosing.

Which Type of Bidet Is Right for Your Bathroom?

Bidets are available in several different configurations. Understanding how each type works will help you choose a product that suits your bathroom layout, renovation stage and budget.

Smart Bidet Toilet Suites

A smart bidet toilet suite combines the toilet and personal washing functions in one integrated product. Depending on the model, available features may include adjustable water temperature, different wash settings, heated seating, air drying, deodorising functions, remote controls and user presets.

Integrated smart toilets are particularly suitable for new bathrooms and major renovations where the required plumbing and electrical connections can be planned before installation. Always check the individual product specifications because features, power requirements and installation arrangements vary between models.

Electronic and Non-Electric Bidet Seats

A bidet seat replaces the existing seat on a compatible toilet pan. It can be a practical option when you want bidet functionality without replacing the complete toilet suite.

Electronic models may provide heated water, adjustable spray settings, seat heating and drying functions. Non-electric models generally offer simpler washing functions without requiring a nearby power outlet. Before ordering, check the toilet pan shape, seat dimensions, fixing-hole spacing, water connection and any electrical requirements.

You can also explore our dedicated bidet seats collection for additional options.

Wall-Hung and Wall-Faced Bidets

A standalone ceramic bidet is installed as a separate fixture beside the toilet. Wall-hung bidets create a clean, elevated appearance and can make the floor easier to clean, while wall-faced models provide a streamlined look with the fixture positioned against the wall.

This option is generally best considered during a new build or full bathroom renovation because it requires dedicated space and appropriate plumbing. Check the technical drawing for the selected model before finalising plumbing positions or cabinetry.

What to Check Before Buying a Bidet

Toilet Compatibility and Measurements

Not every bidet seat fits every toilet. Measure the toilet pan carefully and compare its length, width, shape and fixing-hole spacing with the product specification. Also check whether the cistern, wall or toilet design may restrict the seat or water connection.

Plumbing and Water Connection

Review the product installation instructions and WaterMark information before purchase. The required plumbing and backflow protection will depend on the product design and installation. Do not assume that every bidet seat or spray can simply be connected to the nearest water supply.

Electrical Requirements

Electronic bidet seats and smart toilets may require a compliant power outlet positioned within the location specified by the manufacturer. This should be planned before installation, particularly in a new bathroom or renovation. Any required electrical work must be completed by an appropriately licensed professional.

Available Bathroom Space

A bidet seat normally uses the footprint of the existing toilet, while a standalone bidet requires additional floor or wall space. Check the overall dimensions, door clearance and comfortable movement space before choosing a separate fixture.

Functions You Will Use

Compare features such as water temperature control, spray position, pressure adjustment, heated seating, drying, remote controls and cleaning functions. A simpler model may be suitable if you only require essential washing functions, while a smart toilet may be better when comfort and adjustability are priorities.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Look for accessible surfaces, removable components and cleaning instructions that suit your routine. Always follow the manufacturer's guidance and avoid abrasive products that could damage ceramic, plastic components or electronic parts.

Bidet Installation and Backflow Protection in Australia

Bidet products connected to the drinking-water supply must be installed in accordance with applicable Australian plumbing requirements. Backflow protection is particularly important because it prevents contaminated water from entering the potable water supply.

NSW Government plumbing guidance states that bidet toilet seats and bidet douche trigger sprays may require individual high-hazard backflow protection unless suitable protection is built into the product and identified in its WaterMark documentation. Requirements can vary according to the product, installation and location, so a licensed plumber should confirm what is required before installation. You can review the NSW Government plumbing guidance for further information.

If you are considering a handheld alternative, browse our bidet sprays separately and confirm the installation requirements with your plumber.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a bidet and a bidet seat?

A standalone bidet is a separate ceramic bathroom fixture installed beside the toilet. A bidet seat replaces the seat on a compatible toilet, while a smart bidet toilet combines the toilet and washing functions in one integrated unit.

Can a bidet seat be fitted to any toilet?

No. Compatibility depends on the toilet pan shape, dimensions, fixing-hole spacing, available water connection and clearance around the cistern or wall. Compare the bidet seat specification with your toilet measurements before purchasing.

Does a bidet seat need electricity?

Electronic bidet seats generally require electricity for functions such as water heating, seat heating, drying and remote operation. Non-electric bidet seats use water pressure and may not require a power outlet. Always check the individual product requirements.

Do bidets need to be installed by a licensed plumber?

Products connected to the water supply must comply with applicable plumbing and backflow-prevention requirements. A licensed plumber should assess the product and installation, confirm the required protection and complete any regulated plumbing work.

What should I consider when choosing a smart bidet toilet?

Compare the overall dimensions, plumbing configuration, electrical requirements, wash settings, comfort functions, controls, cleaning features, warranty and after-sales support. Also confirm that the product suits the planned bathroom layout before installation begins.
