Fitting new WC

[Nitell]

Hello guys,

Using a 60mm Eccentric Offset Pan Connector + extension, I am fitting a new WC Pan.

The height of the inlet to the soil stack is 95mm above floor level.

The height of the WC outlet above floor level is 140mm.

The distance between the two, offset and extension, when fully fitted/installed, will be approximately, 215mm as seen in the photo.

I am seeking advice on this layout, please.



Thank you.

Sorry, what do you need advice on? Have you tried to fit them?

I am not a plumber, so I am wondering if using the Offset, and the distance between the outlet and the inlet is sufficient to allow good flushing. Or, if I would need a longer 'run'.

Thank you.

Yes, should be fine as long as it fits in.

Yes, should be fine as long as it fits in.

Will the flexi not do it without the offset?

Also... Any pan con is designed to go into 110mm pipe, not a socket, so if that's a 110mm plastic socket in the wall, you'll need a bit of pipe to line it.

The flexi alone isn't a pan connector.

Don't know what that flexi is... It's got wrong end for pan spigot. Not sure what the OP has done with it.. But a standard flexi should work fine, without the offset.

It’s an extension I think as mentioned in the OP’s 1st post.

Why two pieces when only one is required?

Dilalio mentioned whether the Flexible hose will do rather than the Offset.

So, I have provided a drawing to illustrate the present layout.

Height of the outlet from the WC is approximately 140 from floor level.

Height of Inlet to the Soil Stack is approximately 95mm from floor level.

The Outlet from the Offset would bring it roughly in line with the 95mm/Soil Stack.

So, I am not sure of which will produce the better flow.

And yes, I will need to put a sleeve in the 110mm.

CountryFan, Yes, it is an extension.

Flow is fine either way, just use what you have rather than buy another.

Not a big fan of offsets but a lot depends on how big the ahem items passing though it are.... And amount of toilet paper.
