Alpha JX Bidet Toilet Seat

Yes the Alpha JX is one of the few bidet seats with a sittable lid up to 300lbs

The Alpha JX does not control your toilet's flushing mechanism. All bidet functions need to be manually activated, nothing happens automatically. 

We don't have any official way of changing the color of the light.  It's just a simple LED on the bottom of the unit, so perhaps some colored tape would do the trick.

1) Aluminum and stanless steel nozzles don't have much a difference.  2) Yes extension cords can be used 3)tankless heating seats like the Alpha JX do not have an internal reservoir - they are more energy efficient

It's about 11.5" long and 8" wide.  This is standard for elongated sized bidet seats.

Yes, the Alpha JX and all of our bidet seats have slow close lid and seat

Yes, the Alpha JX will fit on the Kohler Rialto. Here is a link to more information on this matter: https://bidetking.com/blog/what-bidet-toilet-seats-will-fit-my-kohler-rialto-toilet/. You're right that the bidet seat will hang off the front of the bowl about 1-2 inches.

Only a few units have the electrical cord on the left when facing the toilet, these seats include: Brondell Swash 1400 and TOTO s550e/500e.

Yes, this bidet toilet seat will fit on the Kohler San Souchi. 

The ion filter would help the most. However, to truly remove calcium and hard water minerals, you need a whole home water softening solution . Inline filters can only do so much.

The Alpha JX can slide off of its mounting bracket for easy removal and cleaning.  Following the instructions here: https://bidetking.com/media/images/alpha-jx-removal.jpg

The toilet appears to be a 2 piece elongated toilet with plenty of space for any bidet seat. However, the toilet has unusual squared off shape of the bowl that no bidet seat will match.

The dryer function on any bidet seat feels like a hair dryer on a very low setting.  For sanitary/hygiene reason, the fans are not powerful.  They can fully dry you, but it will take 2-3 minutes or so.  They are great for folks with limited mobility.  If you are able bodied, you may choose to wipe/dab dry after cleansing instead.

The Alpha JX, as well as other bidet seats, just need a standard 110V 3 prong outlet to plug into. 

Hi Scott,

No, these bidet seats do NOT require a dedicated circuit.  They will work fine on shared circuits so long as there aren't any other heavy appliances on the same circuit. 

Bidet seats can draw up to 1400W, but this will only be for a few minutes a day during a wash cycle.  Most of the time, they just sit there idle.

Thanks

The Alpha JX electrical cord is about 3.6ft long. When facing the toilet, it is on the right side of the seat.

The Alpha JX bidet seat uses a tankless water heating system. It's made in S Korea like 90% of the other seats on the market.

The ion and sediment filters serve the same purpose. They remove sand, sediment, rust and small particles from the water supply before it reaches your bidet seat. The ion filters are the upgraded version and also help sterilize the water.

You would only use one or the other, not both. They are recommended by all the factories, but not required.

Each filter has a lifespan of 6 months under normal use.

The Alpha JX bidet toilet seat is an antimicrobial resin coating the nozzle.  Before and after each use, the nozzle cleans itself with a jet of fresh water as well.

Yes the Alpha JX and other bidet toilet seats need ot be plugged into an electrical outlet. New outlets installed in bathroom are required to be GFCI, but they will work fine on regular oulets as well.
