Let It Go

The pandemic continues in the world and of course our concerns continue. Every moment we are in society requires us to be more cautious every minute. While in the community, you may postpone eating, which is one of our basic needs, but it should not be possible to postpone your toilet needs. Apart from the hygienic conditions, of course, the paranoia within us does not leave us comfortable in our toilet needs.

The sensor door we see at the entrance of the toilet makes us feel a bit comfortable. We take a deep breath when we see the hygienic toilet seat system and press the button when we enter your toilet cabin and see that the nylon in the toilet has changed. Now it's time to send the outputs, which are the last point of digestion, on an endless journey ... So how much do we know about the siphon, which is the simplest but most important part of the system that provides us with convenience? Maybe just one node for most of us… What if that node doesn't work and you have to take care of yourself?

Siphon is the name given to an inverted U shaped tube that can deliver fluid without the need for any force. The upward movement of the liquid in the tube is provided by atmospheric pressure. Alafranga is the basic component of toilets. Siphon is an inclined fixture that can have a single pipe or an entire pipe system. Due to the bending, the device prevents unpleasant stench odors from entering the room. This is achieved by creating a water plug, since the bending of the siphon creates a sump in which a certain amount of water accumulates. In the modern world, the manufacture of such devices has been carried out from a variety of materials, each of which has its own positive and negative sides.

Plastic siphons are more popular today. This popularity is achieved due to the low cost of the products and their good performance. Meanwhile, plastic siphons are very strong, they are of high strength. It is important that such siphons are chemically cleaned as they are immune to chemical effects. Another advantage is the ease of installation of such a product, regardless of the installation location. Among other things, the plastic resists scale formation.

Over time, the design of all sanitary ware changes, the same applies to the siphon. However, the principle of the siphon remains unchanged regardless of the design it acquires. The simplest scheme can be represented as:

- through the sink, water goes into the bottle;

- passes through several pipes;

- Some water remains in the snow;

- the rest of the water enters the sewer, passes through the outlet;

- The water placed in the sump creates a blockage in the sewage system causing an unpleasant odor remaining.

Of course, flushing does not only represent toilets or bathtubs, it has different uses in many areas and different meanings in many areas, for example the flushing method comes to mind first in brewing coffee.
