Cold vs. Warm Water Bidet: The Great Splash Debate

In the world of bathroom luxuries, the bidet has become the undisputed king of cleanliness. So, let’s dive in and settle this once and for all. Should your bidet be a tropical paradise or an arctic wake-up call?

In the world of bathroom luxuries, the bidet has become the undisputed king of cleanliness. For those who’ve traded in toilet paper for a bidet during the Great Toilet Paper Shortage of 2020 or even more recently, the next big question is this: Warm water or cold water? It’s a debate as old as the day someone decided to attach a hose to a toilet. So, let’s dive in and settle this once and for all. Should your bidet be a tropical paradise or an arctic wake-up call?

The “Surprise!” Factor

Let’s start with our Fanny bidet, which is a cold water bidet. For those who’ve never used one, let me paint a picture: You sit down, do your business, and prepare for the gentle spray of cleanliness. Then BAM!, it feels like you someone threw ice cold water at your most sensitive parts. Cold water bidets don’t ask if you’re ready, they demand your attention with the same subtlety as a bucket of ice water dumped over your head.

Cold water is the bathroom equivalent of jumping into a cold pool. At first, it’s shocking, and you may emit noises usually reserved for horror movies, but after the initial shock, you might (emphasis on "might") find it refreshing, especially on a warm summer day. Plus, it's a guaranteed way to wake up faster than your morning coffee. It’s especially hard on those living in areas like the Northeast that experience cold winters.

Fanny Hotshot, our warm water bidet, on the other hand, is the spa treatment of the bidet world. Imagine a soothing tropical rain shower, except it’s happening in the most personal way possible. It’s like your bathroom turned into a luxury resort, complete with heated seats and a tiny butler who whispers, “Relax, I’ve got this.” There are no surprises here, just pure, uninterrupted bliss. Fanny Hotshot doesn’t scream for attention; it gently eases you into cleanliness, like a mini hot tub just for your butt.

Installation: Plumbing or Power Tools?

If you’re the DIY type, installing a Fanny bidet is a breeze. All you need is a basic attachment and a quick hookup to your toilet's water supply. It’s so easy you could probably do it in your sleep, though I wouldn’t recommend trying that unless you want to flood your bathroom at 2 a.m. Cold water bidets are low maintenance, and since they don’t need electricity or a hot water connection to a nearby sink, they won’t add to your monthly gas or power bill. The only downside? Every time you use it, you’ll be reminded of how efficient your setup is when that icy splash hits in the middle of the night or on a cold winter morning.

Installing a Fanny Hotshot warm water bidet, however, is like embarking on a mini home improvement show. To get that luxurious warmth, you need to tap into the hot water line of a nearby sink, which sounds difficult but is really simple and easy to do. Cold water bidet installation: 10 minutes, a screwdriver, and a sense of adventure. Warm water bidet installation: 15 minutes, a nearby sink, and your trusty screwdriver. Worth the extra five minutes? Absolutely.

The Seasonal Splash


Let’s be real, cold water bidets have a different vibe depending on the time of year. In the summer, that cold water spray can actually feel pretty refreshing. It’s like having a tiny air conditioner for your butt, offering sweet relief from the heat. But winter? That’s a whole other story. Using a cold water bidet in the dead of winter is basically inviting Antarctica into your bathroom. Your pipes have become your enemies, and your bathroom trips start to feel like a polar expedition.

On the flip side, warm water bidets turn the tables when it’s cold outside. Imagine: it’s freezing, you’ve got your cozy socks on, maybe even a robe, and then, you sit down on a warm toilet seat, followed by a gentle, warm cleansing spray. It’s the ultimate comfort. You may even start looking forward to bathroom trips like they’re your own little getaway. Who knew that relief from the cold could come from such an unexpected place?

The Refreshment Factor: Unheated Pool vs. Jacuzzi Hot Tub


Let’s talk refreshment. Some people swear by a cold water bidet's invigorating qualities. It jolts you awake, much like sticking your head in a bucket of ice water (but less extreme and more, you know, targeted). You finish your bidet experience feeling fresh, awake, and possibly considering running a marathon or climbing a mountain. If you’re someone who likes a morning shock to the system, cold water is your best friend. It’s not just a cleaning experience, it’s an adrenaline rush.

Warm water bidets, however, bring a different kind of refreshment. It’s not about shocking you into awareness, it’s about gently whispering you into cleanliness. It’s a luxurious kind of clean that feels less like a wake-up call and more like an invitation to meditate. After using a warm water bidet, you don’t feel like climbing a mountain, you feel like booking a massage and maybe doing some light yoga.

Cost: Wallet-Friendly vs. Indulgence

Let’s be honest, the cold water bidet is the more wallet-friendly option. It gets the job done, and you’ll have plenty of money left over for, well, toilet paper (in case you decide to use TP to pat your butt dry).

Warm water bidets, on the other hand, come with a slightly higher price tag. Installation takes a few minutes longer but the bidet comes with a temperature control knob, water pressure knob, and a spray angle adjuster. If you’re already in the market for a bidet, why not indulge a little and go for a hot water bidet? This is your backside we’re talking about here, it deserves the best, right? Especially when you think of how much time you spend looking and sharing memes while on the toilet, you might as splurge and well, get something nice and refreshing.

The Final Splashdown: Cold vs. Warm


So, which is better? It really depends on your bathroom personality, your geographical location, and maybe your budget.

Are you a no-nonsense, take-on-the-day, cold-shower kind of person? Then the cold water bidet is for you. You’ll get a refreshing blast that wakes you up and prepares you to conquer the world, or at least feel super clean.

Do you prefer cozy comforts, heated blankets, and long baths? Then the warm water bidet is your best friend. It’ll turn your bathroom trips into mini spa experiences, and you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.

Whichever you choose, just remember: At least you’re using a bidet, which automatically makes you cleaner, fancier, and more eco-friendly than those poor souls still relying on toilet paper. And that’s something to celebrate, no matter the temperature of your splash.
