Just discovered a much easier way to grind my coffee in the morning and felt dumb because it was so obvious, figure there's some good stories out there about this type of thing out there

You should be able to just slap a t-valve on the existing water line. The bidet I’ve got came with all that.

    I considered that, but the water that comes out of our well is ice cold. Not the most pleasant of sensations to grace your sensitive bits.

    I'd ideally like to get one of the electronic ones that can regulate temperature and has a few different modes. But I don't currently have an electrical outlet anywhere close to the toilets, and rewiring the bathroom isn't high on the budget priority at the moment.

    Honestly the cold water is not an issue. I was concerned about it when we installed ours but even the first time I used it I was like, “Oh that’s fine what was I worried about.”

    I’m obviously not the butthole police but in my opinion/experience cold water should not be a deal breaker.

    I was concerned about that too, but I finally went ahead and got one, and it's really not bad. With how briefly the water is in contact, it just hasn't been an issue. We have fridge temp cold water from our tap as well.

    We got a Rinseworks 360 hand bidet, and after trying it for a while I got another one. Definitely reccomend it.

    I got one of the electric ones for my main bathroom, and I also did not have a plug anywhere nearby, but there was a light switch nearby, and I found a replacement switch that turns a light switch into a light switch and plug outlet that also had GFCI included in it.

    Heated bidets do not draw a whole lot of power, so I didn't have to worry about overloading the circuit or anything.
