Hi everyone,

If the high level cistern is in a position away from the toilet pan then some custom pipework is needed between the cistern and the toilet pan. Is this possible? I can only find preshaped flushpipes.

I could knock up some adaptors on a lathe to convert the flushpipe to waste pipe and then run in that, but rather avoid all that work!
 
It's not directly above it, no. I would like to position it to maximise the space.

I just spoke to a friend and he's happy to knock up custom fittings to convert to 32mm waste, so I can use solvent weld joints to get the route. Just wondering if there's a more standard solution.
 
Thanks for the tips. I did some trying and using 32mm waste pipe the joint at the toilet pan and at the cistern does hold though slightly loose.
 
A 3-part flush pipe means that you can mount the cistern offset from the pan or on an adjacent wall if needs be
 
Ah, now I understand whatthe three part flush pipe is about. It just looked like three awkward pipes. Ok then that will do. Thanks for the advice guys!
