My 1980s toilet cracked and then disintegrated this weekend. I bought one of these to replace it: http://www.plumbworld.co.uk/saturn-back-to-wall-toilet-pan-2236-25093
The old one had a hidden cistern which I plan to keep. From the cistern runs a pipe which should more or less line up with the new pan.
The old toilet waste outlet is connected via an adaptor of some sort to a pipe which bends 90 degrees and goes into the floor. Again, this should more or less line up with the new pan.
If this photo uploads properly, it should show the existing water and soil pipe connections going into the old pan
There are no fixings, seals or adaptors with the new pan. So I think I need a new adaptor/connector between the pan and soil pipe, and possibly a new seal between the water inlet pipe and the pan.
As you might have guessed, I have never fitted a toilet before so I would appreciate some tips on what stuff I should have before I start the job of replacing old with new.
Thanks!
