If the toilet is used outdoors in winter, can it freeze and break?

Yes.

It is recommended that the toilet be installed indoors as much as possible, because indoors are basically heated in winter. Therefore, the temperature will not be too low, or even low enough to freeze. As for those installed outdoors, it is only recommended to install squat toilets, not toilets.

Because odor-proof toilets basically come with a bent pipe, once the water in the bent pipe freezes, the thermal expansion and contraction may cause the toilet to burst. Once frozen, only warm water can be used to flush the toilet. Warm water should be kept at around 50 degrees, and boiling water should not be used.

Notes:

1. When the toilet is dirty, clean it as soon as possible and clean it regularly with disinfectant. After scrubbing the toilet, clean the cleaning brush with clean water. Try to shake off the water on the brush in the toilet and then spray it with disinfectant. The toilet brush should be replaced with a new one in time after being used for a period of time.

2. The oil in the leftover food and garbage is not easy to clean on the toilet wall. If it accumulates for a long time, it will easily cause the toilet to not flush smoothly or block the waterway, which will also affect the appearance and service life of the toilet. At the same time, rinsing the leftover food waste will easily cause water waste. It is better to pour the leftover food into a garbage bag and throw it away.

3. The toilet is easily stained with urine stains, feces and other dirt. If there are still residues after flushing, be sure to clean them with a toilet brush in time, otherwise yellow spots will easily form and mold and mildew will breed. bacteria. In addition to the pipe mouth, the outlet on the inner edge of the toilet and the outside of the base are places where dirt and evil gather in. When cleaning, lift the toilet seat first.
