Toilet waste exits straight down

[Albopalbo]

I am replacing our toilet and the soil pipe exit straight below the pan into the drain underground. I am having trouble locating a replacement.

Where could I get one? Are they rare? Do they have a special name?

Many thanks.

You might get a plain, cheap "BS" S-trap pan to fit, but the normal solution is to use a special plastic elbow which allows you to push the pan back as far as possible. Often you still need to pack 2" behind the cistern

They are rare - and old usually - and you might be surprised @ what it`ll get on eBay. Could be "London Pattern " was a thread on here a few weeks ago about them .

I had a similar problem when I refurbed by cloakroom. The original toilet had a chain pull cistern up a height and the toilet pan was in a really daft position about 1.5" forward off the wall.

I had to change the layout of the cloakroom and buy a suite based on units and a concealed cistern arrangement to enable me to fit a modern toilet further forward using the units to take up the wasted space behind the toilet and hide the pipework.

Was a total nightmare tbh. Took me ages and lots of modification to get it spot on.

Hi

Try http://www.thebluebook.co.uk/default.asp you'll have to sign up to see it online but they do them. Alternatively go to a plumbers merchant with your dimensions (wall - outlet centre) and see the book.
what you need is (BO) bottom oulet toilets.

Should have given http://www.twyfordbathrooms.com/def...ory=WCs&UmbrellaBrand=Twyford&SelectedPage=10 for BO toilets apologies.

that's tanfastic, tincup

Looks like the Quinta or the Refresh.

Do you know any others?

Hi John.

How much choice do you want? Theirs about 6 (BO) in that link.
I use City plumbing but all merchants could get them.
Great when the soil pipe is 8-10inches from the wall and the customer insists on a close coupled.

my soil pipe socket centre is 250mm from the wall, and the old low-level pan projects 740mm from the wall including seat cover overhang. The diagram tells me the Refresh b.o. outlet is 225 from the back, and has a 640 projection

the room is very small and has a corner basin, so whatever extra space I can get from a new pan will help. The close-coupled looks better as well.

The Quinta seems very expensive, and would also take up more room.

 

[tincup]

Did you see page 11 refresh 260mm wall - centre. I paid CP £290inc. Its not cheap but if thats what a customer wants then so be it, or find one themselves.

 

[JohnD]

ah, the lever cistern one, thanks. I might get a bit of wiggle room on the rubber socket liner, or maybe I could chip a bit of plaster off the wall

ta!

bloody expensive though

 

[tincup]

Hi John.
