Close Coupled WC + Flexible Wc waste connectors

[jeetmistry]

I'm at the moment replacing the ground floor cloakroom suite. The suite that I am ripping out is a low level wc, and I wanted to replace it with a Close coupled wc. Since the WC waste pipe goes out of the back of the WC and into the ground, the location of it would mean that a close coupled WC would not be able to sit up against the wall.

1. Is it possible to have a close coupled WC which does not rest up aginst a wall?

2. I saw a one of these flexible WC aste connectors whicb appear to be abit more forgiving. Are they any good or is it best to stick to the ridgid ones?

Thanks

flexibles do the job fine, get one the correct length.

I bought the extendable flexible connector from B&Q the other day cost £18 and then found basically the same thing in Wickes for £11. The Wickes connector is around 100mm longer in its' 'shortest' length but, in my case this was fine, so the B&Q item went back.

Sorry, but I can't remember the exact lengths of them off hand.
