Choosing the right toilet is not just a matter of design or price: your bathroom measurements are key to avoiding costly mistakes. At Merkimarket, specialists in home equipment, they recommend carefully analyzing the available space before making a purchase, especially in small bathrooms or renovations.
Why is it important to measure before buying?
One of the most common mistakes when purchasing a toilet is not taking into account the actual dimensions of the space. This can lead to problems such as:
- Lack of space for installation
- Difficulty opening doors or moving comfortably
- Incompatibility with the drain outlet
Therefore, before choosing from the different models available at Merkimarket, it is essential to take precise measurements.
Key measurements you should take
1. Distance from the wall to the drain
This is one of the most important points. You must measure from the wall to the center of the drain outlet:
- Horizontal outlet (to wall)
- Vertical outlet (to floor)
This will determine what type of toilet you can install.
2. Total available space
Measure the width and length of the area where the toilet will go. As a reference:
- It is recommended to leave at least 20 cm on each side
- And a minimum of 60 cm of front space for comfort
3. Height and ergonomics
Although often overlooked, the height of the toilet influences comfort. There are standard models and others that are higher, ideal for elderly people or those with reduced mobility.
Types of toilets according to space
At Merkimarket you can find different solutions depending on the size of your bathroom:
- Compact toilets: perfect for small bathrooms
- Wall-hung toilets: provide a sense of spaciousness and facilitate cleaning

Choosing the correct type of toilet will depend directly on the measurements you have taken previously.
