How to install a handheld bidet spray in 5 simple steps

A bidet spray, also known as health faucet, is a triggered water nozzle that is installed next to the water closet. It is similar to a kitchen sink spray and can be used to clean the toilet floor and wall.
The cost of supply and installation of a bidet spray in Singapore is not cheap, as it costs around $120 to $150 per toilet.
Since the installation process is fairly easy (as it only involves installing an additional T-valve to the water valve), you can easily install one yourself within half an hour without the help of a plumber! In this way, you can save around $100, since the cost of the T-valve and the bidet spray is around $50!
Make sure that the water supply valve, located at the wall next to your water closet, is turned off before you start the installation.
Locate the fill valve underneath the water closet. Unscrew the water supply hose with the spanner from the fill valve.
Note that the flat rubber washer should be inside the top of the T-valve.
Wrap the PTFE seal tape around the T-valve threads, located at the bottom of the T-valve. The PTFE seal tape will help to lubricate the connection and allowing the T-valve to be screwed tighter with the water supply hose later. Screw the top of the T-valve onto the fill valve with the spanner.
Tip: To prevent leaks and for a tighter, water tight connection, wrap a few rounds of the PTFE seal tape around the threads for all the connections. Read how to use the PTFE seal tape properly here.
Screw the water supply hose to the bottom of the T-valve, which has been wrapped with the PTFE seal tape.
Connect one end of the bidet hose to the side of the T-valve. Remember to turn on the water supply prior use!
Finally, check for water leaks by turning on the bidet spray!

Tip: To avoid drilling, use drywall screws, anchors or even the heavy duty, double sided tape to attach the holster holder to the wall.
