Hi,
I am looking to replace my current bathroom suite, but I'm a bit stumped by the toilet.
The bathroom is upstairs of a two floor flat. Currently the cistern is attached to the wall seperately and a pipe runs to the toilet itself which drains into what looks like a concrete pipe sticking up from the floor. The pipe is abbout 7" diameter. I am guessing this then drains into a shared soil stack of some description in the corner of the bathroom but it is all boxed in.
The centre of the this 'concrete'? pipe is 30cm from the external wall which is where my problem lies. All the toilets I have seen have the soil exiting about 15cm from the rear of the attached cistern which would be 15cm from the external wall.
How would I go about fitting a new toilet as I am assuming the pipe in floor cannot be moved, although I haven't took the floor up to investigate.
Cheers,
Ian
