What sort of trap do i need for a pedestal toilet?

[vickimorrsh80]

I have been told to ask you that, by my husband, so you'll have to excuse me if its not the right words etc...help?

A Bl00dy long one, and a ladder to reach the pan.

R U sure it for a pan and not a basin

hmm....i knew that didn't sound right, but he was adamant!!
Ill try to explain what i mean....
The cistern (reliably informed thats what its called, the bit with the flush?) Is really close...im recalling 'close coupled' as a term used but no idea where i got that from ?
the old loo is REALLY old, so all the old waste pipes are exposed, and we cant see what we need to change to make everything fit under the new toilet???
In fairness, i haven't been in there since everything was taken out, so i don't really know what im on about?

Has your husband got no arms? Can he not type?

as it happens, my husband was up to his elbows under the sink, and told me the bits we had to do the loo were wrong, but didnt know what bits we needed!
I have sent him to the shop to get them to help him, as it was them that sold us the wrong bits!
Thanks guys, helpful as ever
