The purchase typically comes with user-friendly step-by-step instructions and if followed very carefully, the project can will wrapped up that way it is expected. For people installing bubble-type raised seats, here is a quick advice.

First is to lift the seat and the cover of the toilet. This has to be done in order for the lid and the seat to be positioned upright and to be out the way. It will be impossible to work efficiently without having it done for the bowl will be required to be opened later.

The seat will be positioned at the tall end by the inner ring and rear of the bowl found at the opening. To have the bowl installed, elevated seat much be pushed down till it is ascertained having been put securely in place. But since this is never intended for a permanent use, one must check the physician every now and then for this may compromise user safety going beyond suggested date of use.

Raised toilet seats that have adjustable knobs will be harder to install. But then again, there is no need to pay for an installer for this to be done right. The same thing will be done during the process, though. The lid and seat must be lifted for the same reason.

Adjustments must only be made the moment the cover is already raised. Once done, adjustment knobs must be turned in a leftward direction in order to loosen the adjustment bracket. Doing this gets the seat to be easier to fit into the bowl.

This has to be done continuously without an increase of force of course until it fits perfectly. After, the toilet is to be placed in the bowl rim while hooking its rear flanges located under the edge. The elevated unit must sit flat on the rim. Also, the knob must be ensured fixed at the front end.

Having securely positioned on the rim, the new set has to be pushed hard for it to be perfectly placed in the center. The adjustment knob this time will be turned in a clockwise direction to tighten. Turning in the opposite direction has to continue until resistance is felt.

And if the top end of the raised toilet seats hit the lid, these should be removed for proper fit. Specific instructions for installation and adjustments are identified by the American Red Cross to ensure safety. If having trouble installing, it is best to call for professional help.
