A handheld bidet is one of the more common types of bidets, but it can be challenging for those unfamiliar with bidet seats or how to use handheld bidet attachment.

Although you might be acquainted with bidet seats or attachments, you may not know how to use a bidet sprayer properly. 

Think of it like a shower bidet: like a handheld shower head, there is a tall tube with a nozzle on the end. You turn on the water, aim through the nozzle, and enjoy the soothing feeling.

What are Hand-Held Bidet Sprayers?

A non-electric bidet has two components: the shutoff t-valve and the bidet faucet hose. It will most likely be installed under the toilet tank or on the wall next to the toilet. A handheld bidet sprayer is a good option for bathrooms that do not feature electrical outlets close by the toilet. They’re also extremely easy to use.

Alternative Uses:

Handheld bidets have many other uses, too, which is why it’s a bit like having a miniature garden hose in your bathroom. It’s good to use a handheld bidet sprayer to wash down the shower walls or clean large objects (and even pets!) in the tub, thanks to its long hose and water pressure control. New mothers love to use a handheld bidet sprayer. Not only does this gentle soap their skin after childbirth, they can use it to clean their very delicate, postpartum skin.

Using a Hand Held Bidet Sprayer

You may want to practice cleaning yourself from the bidet using a hand-held wand before you produce bodily fluid in the toilet or bathtub. Hand bidets have really strong water force at their highest settings, enabling you to direct the pressure to learn to control the drinking water nozzle effectively.

Turn On the T-Valve

A T-valve stops water pressure from rising in the bidet hose when your sprayer is not on. You can see the plastic or metal T-valve attached to your toilet’s fill valve, underneath your tank. Twist the T-valve’s handle to the ON position.

 Do NOT worry about the bidet won’t spray until you also turn on the sprayer. To increase the bidet’s spray intensity, you may lower the temperature.

Position the Bidet Sprayer Head

Be sure to hold the nozzle securely to control the flow of water effectively. Sitting on the toilet, put the bidet sprayer into the toilet bowl in front of you between your legs, or behind your back. Spraying from the front or back is a basic option; you are able to decide which feels more comfortable.

Handheld bidets, such as the CleanSpa Advanced, are usually more responsive and ergonomic to use for personal cleansing. The curved body and carefully designed nozzle design of the CleanSpa Advanced makes it easier for new users to hold and aim.

Wash Yourself

When necessary, gently squeeze or push the pressure-adjustment aspect of the bidet to prime the spray. Maintain control of your pressure as you are cleaning. Should the water spray not precisely suit your needs, adjust the position of the lever or handle. The bidet water that your exhausted self has to clean yourself with always originates from your home’s compressed water pipe like your sink or shower.

Do I Really Need to Turn Off the Bidet T-Valve Every Time?

The short answer is, Yes, unless you enjoy bathmaker-floods. Pressure of water wears down the bidet parts when your T-valve is left open for an extended period. If you have a leaky Bidet sprayer, you should replace the parts that are damaged. Replacement Bidet hoses and heads are available.
