Thinking of getting a urinal... (1 Viewer)

That's the question the wife wants to know before we get one. So if I pee actually in it (not on top or underneath like a public restroom) and have a urinal cake, will it smell bad at all times? Any experience?

 
You should get a trough-style urinal and put a lot of ice in it to keep the smell down. The ice also makes a handy place to put your beer while you're peeing to keep it nice and frosty.

The Urial does not smellThe Urine does :goodposting:
 
My buddy put a urinal in his basement. We have our fantasy draft at his house every year. So that's 14 guys drinking for 4 hours and pissing every 20 minutes. Have to say, I didn't notice a foul odor in the least. Reminded me of a lily field at sunrise, actually.

 
I knew a guy once who had one in his basement. Just outside the bathroom, not actually in it, if I remember right, so he could still look back and see the TV in the rec room. I'll have to ask if it stunk the place up.

 
I get the humor behind this, but don't understand why anyone would actually go through with doing it.

 
Did you ever go through with this, Evil-O? I'm thinking a urinal may make a nice addition to a basement man-cave. Maybe with some nudie pics and the sports page on the wall above it.

 
Seems like a cool idea. In the house we are looking to buy, we have talked about one day adding a full bathroom in the basement, and I would totally lobby for including one. Especially if we have a solid bar/TV/"mancave" area down there.

Then again, my wife and two girls won't need to use it, so unless we tack on some boys, this may be really impractical. :bag:

But it would help prevent you from leaving the seat up.

That's a small victory when you're outnumbered.

Just get a bidet instead.

 
Urinal is trapped like any other plumbing fixture so there should be no sewer gas. Just keep a spray bottle of bleach by the urinal and encourage those who use it to give it a spray of bleach when they are done.

 
My FIL built one in his master bath, on the wall a few feet away from the toilet. He loves it.

These don't flush. Not very sanitary compared to the flushing ones. Not bad for a public restroom, but I would think someone would prefer the urine rinsed off the porcelain if it's going to be in a home.

I see our maintenance staff uses some sort of sanitation spray at the end of each day to deal with that

I dont think an urinal is very sanitary no matter how it operates

 
Standing up and pissing in a toilet is just an incredibly unsanitary process. Urine can splash on anything within a few feet of the bowl. Not to mention, it is pretty difficult to shake your last few drips directly into the toilet. I rarely stand up when peeing at my own house. And when I clean the bathroom I make sure to wipe down everything that piss could splash on.

 
When I finished my basement I had a bathroom put in and considered getting a urinal in addition to the commode. While it would save water it just seemed like overkill and one more thing to clean and maintain. I am not sure how long it would take to start paying for itself but I think it would be a pretty long time.

I don't understand the point of the home urinal....except to say that you have one.

Tall guys end up with splash marks on their pants when peeing into a toilet.

what is considered tall? I'm 6'2 and it isn't a problem. Maybe my #### is close enough to the bowl where it isn't an issue?

I'm sure that's it. You're definitely not a filthy subhuman who doesn't realize he's got drops of piss all over his pants, socks, and shoes, you just have an enormous schlong.

 
I did get one when I finished the basement, it was great. Easy to clean, no smell, and was used often. Unfortunately I moved so the urinal stayed with the basement though. I can tried and dig up a picture.

 
Buddy of mine picked up a urinal at a salvage yard-type place for cheap. Put it up in a corner of his basement. The flushing mechanism is fairly pricey, so he just put in a simple ball valve. Works great and gets a lot of use.
