Installing "pod" toilet with cistern in loft

[EggMella]

Basically my wall wont take the frame and I don't want to build out into the bathroom which is already small.

Does anyone know if I can install this sort of toilet and feed it from the loft?

Do I need a special type of pod toilet?

cheers

if your wall wont take a frame i cant see it holding a corbled toilet

as for the feed you just need a low pressure float valve

or if you mean a cistern in the loft no probs

Basically I have an exterior brick wall on one side and the stairway (brick) wall on the other I can't make enough room in either of these for a frame. I was hoping that I could install the toilet and make it secure somehow and then chase the cold water feed & flush mechanism into the wall...

I'm not sure if this is possible I guess the challenge is securely fixing the toilet to the wall, then working out how to operate the flush mechanism? Would anyone be able to talk me through this? I guess need:

1. toilet
2. cistern
3. mounting system for toilet only (what would I use here)?
4. flush mechanism that works something in the loft?
5. pipes
6. waste flow

You won't have room in the brickwork to allow for the bend in the flush supply pipe, yet alone for the soil pipe, unless you remove the inner leaf of brickwork (which will make the wall weak-which as you intend to hang a pan off it+bodyweight wouldn't be ideal in any case)) for the supply and also have the soil pipe sticking straight through the exterior wall (where's the external soil stack in relation to the exterior wall?)

Are you sure there's no room to buy/build a unit in which to house the support frame and cistern?

A floor mounted pan with a concealed plastic cistern and air push button would be a better bet but you still have issues with the waste pipe and flush pipe.
We installed one a few years back with the cistern in the loft on a 2 metre flush pipe concealed in the studwork you still need about 200mm behind the pan for the bend.
