According to the embodiment, a toilet device includes a nozzle, a flow channel, a heat exchanger, and a flow channel unit. The flow channel unit is located upstream or downstream of the heat exchanger in the flow channel. The flow channel unit includes a flow rate sensor and a vacuum breaker. The flow rate sensor detects a flow rate of water. The vacuum breaker suppresses a backflow of water. The flow rate sensor includes a first case part and a sensor part. The sensor part is housed inside the first case part. The vacuum breaker includes a second case part and a valve part. The valve part is housed inside the second case part. At least a part of the first case part and at least a part of the second case part is formed of a continuous member.

Toilet device

A sanitary washing device is on a toilet including a bowl. The sanitary washing device includes a casing, a nozzle, a shielding plate, and a controller. The nozzle washes a human body private part. The nozzle is advanceable and retractable between a storage position and an advanced position. The shielding plate is rotatable with respect to the casing and positioned frontward of the nozzle when the nozzle is at the storage position. The controller controls an operation of the nozzle. The nozzle has a first spout hole squirting water. The shielding plate is at a first position when the nozzle is at the advanced position. The controller performs a frontward washing operation of squirting water after using the sanitary washing device. A part of the shielding plate is positioned frontward of a front end part of the nozzle in the frontward washing operation.

Sanitary washing device

According to one embodiment, a sanitary washing device includes a nozzle being capable of discharging water toward a human body private part, a solenoid valve provided on a water channel between a water supply source and the nozzle, the solenoid valve opening and shutting the water channel, and a pressure regulator valve provided on the water channel between the solenoid valve and the nozzle, the pressure regulator valve regulating a pressure of water flowing through the water channel. At least a portion of the pressure regulator valve is disposed in a range to which the solenoid valve is projected from upward to downward.
