Why Switch to a Bidet Attachment?
A bidet attachment is a simple way to upgrade your toilet for a cleaner, more comfortable experience. According to the manufacturer, bidets remove 99% more poop particles than wiping alone. Plus, each use uses only 1/8 gallon of water—far less than the 37 gallons needed to produce a single roll of toilet paper. The TUSHY Classic 3.0 and TUSHY Spa 3.0 are two popular models that attach to your existing toilet without needing an electrician.
How to Install Your TUSHY Bidet Attachment
Installation is designed to be quick and tool-free. Here are the general steps based on the supplied information.
- Check toilet compatibility: Before purchasing, verify that your toilet has the standard fitting required for the bidet attachment. The catalog notes that you should check your toilet compatibility ahead of time.
- Turn off the water supply: Locate the shut-off valve behind your toilet and turn it clockwise to stop the water flow. Flush the toilet to drain any remaining water from the tank.
- Disconnect the existing toilet hose: Unscrew the water supply hose from the bottom of the toilet tank. Keep a towel handy to catch any drips.
- Attach the T-adapter (if needed): Some models include a T-adapter that connects the water supply to both the toilet tank and the bidet. Screw it onto the tank's fill valve, then reconnect the water supply hose to the other end.
- Mount the bidet attachment: Slide the bidet unit onto the toilet bowl mounting holes between the seat and the bowl. Secure it with the provided bolts and hand-tighten.
- Connect the water hose: Attach the bidet's water hose to the T-adapter or directly to the water supply, depending on your model. Hand-tighten all connections.
- Turn the water back on and test: Slowly open the shut-off valve. Check for leaks at all connections. If everything is dry, you're ready to use the bidet.

How to Use the Bidet Attachment
Using a TUSHY bidet is straightforward. After using the toilet, remain seated. Reach for the control knob on the side of the attachment. Turn it gently to start the water flow. The TUSHY Classic 3.0 offers cool water, while the TUSHY Spa 3.0 provides both warm and cool water options. Adjust the pressure and angle to your comfort level using the knobs. The manufacturer states you can get that shower-clean feeling in under 10 seconds. When finished, turn the knob off. The self-cleaning nozzle will rinse itself after each use.
Tips for a Better Experience
Start with low pressure and increase gradually until you find a comfortable setting. Pat dry with a small amount of toilet paper or a dedicated towel. Remember that each use uses only 1/8 gallon of water, so you're saving water compared to toilet paper production. The TUSHY Spa 3.0 model with warm water may require a nearby electrical outlet for the heating feature, but the Classic 3.0 works with just the cold water line.
What the Catalog Doesn't Tell You
The supplied information does not include detailed operating instructions for adjusting the spray angle or pressure beyond what is mentioned. For specific troubleshooting, refer to the manufacturer's full manual. Also, the catalog does not specify the exact water pressure requirements or whether the warm water feature on the Spa model requires a specific type of connection. If you have an unusual toilet shape, check compatibility before buying.
