Bariatric chairs

Geberit offers tailored bariatric solutions designed to maximise safety, comfort, and dignity. Unlike other toileting products, Geberit considers key bariatric factors such as aperture size, seat height, and most importantly, dynamic impact weight. The latter refers to the increased force created when sitting down without full control, which significantly increases pressure on any toilet structure and, consequently, real safety risks.

To enhance stability and long-term safety, Geberit recommends pairing AquaClean Mera Care with supportive equipment like the Osprey Healthcare Java bench. When placed over the shower toilet it provides a strong, stable base and reduces downward forces more effectively during transfers and use.

What is a wash and dry toilet?

A wash and dry toilet, also known as a shower toilet, smart toilet, automatic shower toilet, bidet toilet, Japanese toilet or electronic bidet is a toilet that washes and dries the bottom with water and therefore reduces or completely eliminates the need for toilet paper. A shower toilet can be used by people of all genders, young or old. Wash and dry toilets are not just for people with disabilities and can be used by all family members.

Shower toilets have become a popular, more hygienic option for toileting in Europe and Asian countries in the last few decades. The Swiss company Geberit started to make shower toilets in 1978 and is the undisputed European market leader. With its outstanding quality and innovative technologies, it is constantly setting new standards in the bathroom.

Discover the benefits and functions of a shower toilet

Is Geberit AquaClean Mera Care easy to use?

Yes. Geberit AquaClean Mera Care has been designed with the client in mind. It offers a variety of control options that allow you to choose whichever functions are most convenient. Even hands-free operation is included without compromising on individuality.

Is Geberit AquaClean Mera Care a suitable toilet for people with specific needs or reduced mobility?

Yes. Geberit AquaClean Mera Care is an accessible toilet, designed for people of all ages with disabilities and special needs. It has been proven to work effectively not only with the elderly but also with children and young adults. It is also ideal for wheelchair users thanks to its barrier-free design, ergonomic seat height, and intuitive remote control, which allow for comfortable and independent use without assistance.

Geberit AquaClean Mera Care is compatible with leading brands of pediatric chairs and commode chairs.

Additionally, it is perfect for people who suffer from skin irritations in sensitive areas, as the water spray cleans gently and thoroughly with fresh water.

Who can install Geberit AquaClean Mera Care?

We were keen to develop a smart accessible toilet that is innovative and easy to install. Any qualified installer of your choice will be able to carry out the job.

Do you sell a yearly service plan?

No, we do not sell an annual service plan for Geberit AquaClean Mera Care because modern shower toilets do not demand a yearly service. It is far more hygienic and user-friendly to clean and maintain your wash and dry toilet as and when you feel it is needed – weekly, monthly, or whenever necessary.

Having the ability to maintain your own shower toilet helps to maintain confidence in the product and minimise ongoing running costs and can save up to £3,000 over a 10-year period.

Do you sell extended warranty for Geberit AquaClean Mera Care?

Geberit already provides you with a free 5-year warranty as long as you register your product with us.

Can Geberit AquaClean Mera Care be used in case of a power cut?

Yes, it can. There is a mechanical flush button included, so you can continue using the Geberit AquaClean Mera Care as a standard toilet, should you experience a power cut.

Where can I purchase optional extras such as grab rails or a lid?

Grab rails and a lid are available and must be purchased separately. Contact Geberit on freephone 01926 516 800.

Will the air dryer burn my bottom?

No. The drying function of the Geberit AquaClean Mera Care is gentle. The air is warm, but not nearly as hot as a hair dryer.

Do I still need toilet paper with Geberit AquaClean Mera Care?

You can use toilet paper, but you don't have to. After your wash and dry toilet has been adjusted to your preferences and needs, you will not need paper anymore to clean yourself.

Why the need to adjust the power of the wash?

Every individual is unique – from body shape to sensitivity levels and personal preferences. This is especially important for people living with disabilities, where comfort and confidence are paramount.

While wash and dry toilets are non-invasive, they need to accommodate a wide range of needs, from the most delicate skin to larger body types. The ability to adjust the wash power ensures a gentle yet effective clean. It also helps users feel reassured, maintain hygiene, and continue using the toilet independently and with dignity.

What temperature is the water when washing?

The water temperature is factory-set at 37°C, so close to body temperature, to ensure comfort and effectiveness. However, it can be easily adjusted to suit individual preferences, ranging from 34°C to 40°C. For users with heightened sensitivity to heat, the wash can be set to ambient temperature. Users with open wounds or skin conditions may even prefer a cold water wash for its soothing and potentially healing properties.

How do I know if I’m sitting in the right position to get cleaned?

Thanks to the adjustable wash arm (often called a douche arm), users don’t need to worry about precise positioning. Once seated, the wash arm can be adjusted to suit individual anatomy, ensuring the water reaches the right spot.

This position can be saved for future use. Additionally, our unique oscillating wash feature moves the shower arm forward and backward past its set point, cleaning a wider area. As a result, our shower toilets effectively “wipe“ with water rather than paper for a more hygienic and comfortable experience.

How beneficial is the lady wash function?

Female hygiene is also an important consideration, especially when supporting users with personal care needs. The lady wash function can be activated via the remote control, side buttons, or the Geberit Home app. It’s particularly helpful during menstruation, offering improved cleanliness and comfort. For users who may struggle with wiping or feel self-conscious about body odour, the lady wash can help build confidence and maintain dignity.

While not clinically proven, it is widely accepted that regular use of a dedicated lady wash function may help reduce the risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs), making it a valuable addition to personal care routines.
