New Toilet Won't Fit Nooooo!!!!!!!!

[twinaxel]

I have been trying to fit a new toilet pan. It is the concealed
spigot type and I have tried two different connectors.

The P type will fit but leaves a 70mm gap between the wall and cistern. I have also tried the flexible one which just about fits but the bend is that tight that it's flattening the pipe. The soil pipe is in the floor. Is there any other connector I can try?

i'm no plumber but
can't you cut down the p connector and use a straight connector as well to reduce the size ?

theres also this ? http://www.toolstation.com/shop/Plu...tors/Flexible+Pan+Connector/d20/sd2887/p44832

This is a common problem covered many times on this forum. You will have to accept the gap behind the cistern and pack it out with some timber or whatever you fancy.
Or reposition your soil outlet.

Build a false stud wall behind it & take the opportunity to put a recessed lighting feature in there; looks great!

Have a look at the connectors here http://www.multikwik.com/pdfs/Multikwik_Plumbers_Guide.pdf and bear in mind that there is an adaptor available to link them together.

There is a "question mark" shaped connector on the Multikwik website which might do the trick. Not sure if the end sizes will suit though.

As has been said you have two option , either dig up the floor and move the drain or batton out the wall between the cistern

Many thanks for the replys, been up to the plumbers merchants and bought a spacesaver connector. Looks
like it will just about fit. Its Christmas eve so I won't
be allowed to play anymore till at least New Year.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

I am amazed that it is so difficult to get a new WC with downwards discharge. There must be lots of us needing one, where the old one is set on a concrete floor

WC with downwards discharge.

'S' trap

Why bother when an adaptor can turn a 'P' trap into a 'Q' trap 'S' trap or a Left or Right handed outlet ?

Took a whole 10 seconds with google.

Please read the original post again.I think you are missing the point here.
The OP is clearly trying to fit a a wc which from the sounds of it (concealed spigot?) is a close coupled wc.
I don't think you will find too many of them knocking around with an s trap outlet.
If all we did was replace like for like in bathrooms we would never have to box out the back of a cistern ever again.
