hot air, big p, hot air. (to dry with I mean) |
|
|
[po] beat me to it. Once the "wash" cycle is done, dry by forcing (heated?) air through the same or separate set of nozzles in the retractable spindle. You would have to provide a means of escape, in the watertight bonnet, for the air pressure/water vapor. |
|
|
Some significant safety interlocks would be advisable in order to avoid accidental (surprise!) operation. |
|
|
Right. Seat and lid must be down. Maybe we need something in the bonnet as well to indicate it's on. |
|
|
Don't install this in Schroedinger's Toilet, or it will constantly be washing and not washing the seat. |
|
|
hey I really love the little Miss Muffet bonnet touch. all pink and frilly with ribbons and crochet and lace and a little peaky bit. with matching spare loo roll cover. |
|
|
I was just wondering about time scale (not lime scale) on
this - I would love one, but would you have to wait 30
mins for it to heat up and clean? We have a very hecic loo
system in our house - would it be instant? |
|

Quis lavat lavatorem?
(Who cleans the toilet cleaner?) |
|
|
One problem would be anything on the outside of the bowl. Obviously the cleaning method wouldn't be able to get past the rim, and sometimes, we all fall a little short. |
|
|
The drying could also be done through a high power vacuum sucking in air past the rim. This would then suck in any excess moisture and dry the surface at the same time. |
|
|
Don't forget the little Jet Dry cup. |
|
|
([pheonix] surely the Irish/Scottish pronouncition is needed: pish washer?) |
|
|
[Underdrunk], I'm not certain I'd want to place my backside on anything capable of 'high-powered suction.' If I were to hit the wrong button... Although, sometimes, some _ass_istance might be nice. |
|
|
[see obligatory Snopes link] |
|
|
The spindle itself would get awfully messy and may prevent the 'stuff' from flushing down the drain properly. |
|
|
Um, why not just flush the toilet?? |
|
|
It's not a flush replacement. It's a once-a-week (or whatever) cleaning cycle for the toilet. |
|
|
I've got it! The toilet-spider! When nobody's sitting on the toilet, a small toilet-brush brush covered mechanical critter crawls in there and washes and scrubs the toilet then gets back out after it's done! |
|
|
I'd love to see the look on someone's face as this thing crawls out of the toilet and back into its box >:) |
