Help -Installing a toilet/basin combo with only a cold feed?

[bilabonic]

Hi all

Looking to replace my old toilet with a toilet/basin combo.

I’ve fitted a few toilets and basins separately but never a combo?

I’m looking at this combo pack as it comes with a monobloc tap but I’m baffled as to how the tap gets its feed as the tail/s must go into the cistern?

I think I can see two inputs in the bottom of the cistern? Are these the hot and cold?

If they are what do i need to just make it a cold water fed system?

I’ve watched a video but it does not show how the tap tail or tails are connected?

Anyone help please?

Thanks

Just split the cold pipe and make two cold connections to the tap.

Perhaps it’s installed like this?

Still does not make sense tbh???

Wow.
That’s an odd design.
I have messaged the seller for instructions.
IF it is like that then I would need to split the CW feed.
One for cistern fill and one to the CW of tap flexi.

I presume the other HW flexi would also need to be fitted to prevent backflip from the CW one?
I would just have it dangling and fit an 1/2” male plug??

Seems a silly way to do it though??

Yes, it would need to be blanked, but you might as well try to plumb it in.

It’s a massive job to run a HW supply as the existing toilet is in an outhouse and HW is not required at all.

Just seems a silly design tbh/way of doing it.

Cheers.

What about adding a water heater?

The other half just does not want HW.
So I’m happy. Lol.
I found a video from another one which looks the same but from Victoria Plumb.

It seems the CW inlet/fill has 15mm T/spur off it to connect the CW flexi too.

The HW will then also need to be fully fitted but just capped off on the outside/bottom of the cistern.

So it will need an 1/2” female cap with a rubber washer if possible.

Anyone know the correct terminology or correct item.
It’s basically the same flat faced inout as the CW inlet on the bottom.

Thanks guys.

Could the mixer simply be swapped for a single cold tap?
