Tools you may need

Steps

  1. Shut the toilet supply valve and flush to empty the tank.
  2. Disconnect the supply line; thread the T-adapter on with fresh tape.
  3. Reconnect supply to the adapter, then the bidet hose to the T.
  4. Seat the attachment under the existing seat bolts and reconnect.
  5. Open the valve slowly and leak-check every joint before first use.

Maintenance

Clean nozzles monthly (most have self-rinse); winterize cold-water lines if you leave for winter. (Suggested interval: every 3 months.)
