hi
i've fitted a new toilet in my house, but the over flow pipe is now too short. can i buy a push fit fitting, to extend the pipe
 
just extend with new 21.5mm overflow pipe and fittings

fittings cost about 30p each, widely available from screfix,toolstation etc
 
you can use a shorter syphon which will overflow down into the pan then blank off the overflow pipe
 
hi
can i block the overflow off, and use something different
If it's a new toilet, the chances are that the flush mechanism has an integral overflow (which flows into the pan) anyway, thus making the existing overflow obsolete. Easiest way is to hold the ball valve open ant let it fill up too much and see if water begins to flow into the pan.
