Yes but as discussed I don't think this is an option as it would put the basin waste connection on the side as my pan connector is horizontal.

Thanks, I'll get the bits sorted. The w/c frame does not come with a pan connector, is there any reason I can't use a standard straight pan connector into an elbow? Do wall hung toilets have a different spigot? Thanks

What's the best way to run my basin waste based on the layout shown on the CAD image. The toilet is now going to be wall hung with the soil pipe exiting horizontally through the wall directly adjacent to it. I'd like to avoid having a separate waste going through the wall for the basin, can I...

What are peoples recommendations for the most reliable and best performing dual pneumatic flush concealed cistern? It's going into a 600 by 400 unit, access will be via the dummy drawer front so the cistern must have a front service panel. I prefer the pneumatic ones as the cables can cause...

Everything is easy when you know what you are doing (y)

Thanks for your help, looks a million times better now. I know in the picture it looks like the tiles are still over the upstand but it's just the camera angle, they're all butted against it.

Do you still have to fold the edges of the apron up with flat tiles?

Yep, as I say velux technical confirmed to me what you are saying, the reason I did it like that is because the installation guide shows a (profiled) tile running over the top of the upstand. The only place it shows a tile butted against the upstand it has a caution sign which makes it seem you...

Thanks, do you just cut a recess?, the back of the modern tile is quite complex with the different reinforcement ribs so I couldn't quite figure out where to cut. Also I've just spoken to velux technical who confirmed that a) I am an idiot and b) the instructions could be clearer (she had to go...

Not the best picture but hopefully you can see what I mean.

I have seen several threads where people mention grinding tiles to get them to sit better around a velux. I am having trouble getting marley moderns to sit nicely around a velux with edj flashing. The tile nibs around the velux were ground off but do you need to actually grind the tile down...

I must admit I have watched a few vids now and it does seem straightforward. There are a few details that I will need clarifying before I go ahead with it such as how do I fix the insulation to the existing felt which will act as the DPM, I have seen suggestions for screws with big washers and...

You read my mind that is exactly what I was planning on doing, unfortunately the lounge is 5m long so the chances that I will be able to get at the whole lot are slim. I think if I at least get the air gap above the insulation the room will be warmer, depending on how the insulation is fixed to...

Can't be done I am afraid, the ceiling is barely 2.4m as it is, if I was to add 50mm of celotex and 12mm of board it would feel like a ships engine room in there. And as I said I am not going to wait 15 years to convert to a warm deck, I said as soon as funds allow I am planning to use the...

As above, it wasn't me that had the roof recovered it was like it when we moved in. Can't really do anything with the ceiling's as the rooms have been replastered and decorated. I would have ripped them down first if I had known about the crazy insulation situation but we didn't have central...

I know, tell me about it, unfortunately that is how it was when we moved in so we didn't have much of a say in how the roof was re-felted! Ok so if the ventilation must stay I think I will see if there is any way to detach the insulation from the underside of the decking so that at least the...

Hi guys, new to the forum as a poster although I have gleaned much good advice from the forum in the past. Been wondering for a while why my lounge (17m2) is always so cold, even with the 10000btu rad on full tilt it never really warms up sufficiently. Obviously this can only mean poor...
