General Questions
Where are ALIK toilets designed and assembled?
ALIK toilets are designed and assembled in Canada, British Columbia. We source materials both domestically and internationally, prioritizing Canadian suppliers when quality and sustainability standards are met.
What makes ALIK different from other smart toilet brands?
ALIK is the only Canadian luxury smart toilet brand. We focus on sustainable manufacturing, timeless design, Canadian customer service, and products built for our climate and water standards. We also offer better warranty coverage than most imported brands.
Can I purchase ALIK products directly?
Yes! You can purchase directly from alikliving.ca with delivery across Canada.
Are ALIK products available outside Canada?
Currently, ALIK products are available only in Canada. We’re exploring expansion to the US market. Join our mailing list for updates.
What is the return policy?
Unused, unopened products can be returned within 30 days for a full refund minus shipping. Installed products cannot be returned but are covered by our comprehensive warranty. Showroom consultations help ensure you choose correctly the first time.
Technical Support
What are the electrical requirements?
ALIK toilets require a standard 110V, 15-amp GFCI-protected outlet within 4 feet of the toilet. Most bathroom outlets meet this requirement. Professional installation includes electrical assessment.
What water pressure is needed?
ALIK functions optimally with water pressure between 20-80 PSI (pounds per square inch). Most residential water systems fall within this range. Very high or low pressure may require a pressure regulator.
What happens during a power outage?
The toilet will flush manually during power outages (gravity-assisted flush). Electronic features (bidet, heating, auto-flush) require power. Select models include battery backup for basic functions.
Are ALIK toilets septic-safe?
Yes, all ALIK models are septic-safe. Our efficient flush system and lack of chemical additives actually benefit septic systems.
Do ALIK toilets work with low-flow or greywater systems?
Yes, ALIK’s efficient water use (3L/4.5L) works excellently with low-flow systems. For greywater integration, consult with your greywater system installer and ALIK support team for compatibility confirmation.
Ordering & Delivery
How long does delivery take?
In-stock models: 5-10 business days to major Canadian cities. Custom finishes or special orders: 12-16 weeks. Installation can typically be scheduled within 1-2 weeks of delivery.
What does white-glove delivery include?
White-glove delivery to your home includes inside placement (not curbside), unpacking, and removal of packaging materials. Installation is separate but can be scheduled simultaneously.

Warranty
How do I register my warranty?

Is warranty valid with DIY installation?
Product warranty remains valid with DIY installation. However, installation-related issues (leaks, electrical problems from improper installation) are not covered. Professional installation includes separate installation warranty.
Is the warranty transferable?
Warranty is transferable to new owners if the unit is professionally uninstalled and reinstalled. Warranty remains in effect for the original warranty period (from original purchase date).
How do I file a warranty claim?
