I'm trying to push a toilet back against a wall so that the cistern is flat against the tiled wall, but the 110mm soil pipe is slightly out of position by about 1.5 inches so I thought I could bend the soil pipe slightly by heating it (tried a hot hairdryer but no good) - any ideas please very welcome.
The soil pipe joints the back of the toilet from the left side, there is about 30cm of pipe that runs parallel to the wall the toilet backs on to before the pipe disappears through the outside wall. I hope you understand what I've described!
Thanks
 
Do you mean the soil pipe is to long ? or off center, you could try an offset pan connector .
 
If not then maybe a Flexi if you have room, can you put some photos on ? would be helpfull.
 
you can heat 110 pipe up with a blow torch rotate and heat it up but its got to be reasonably long to do it. takes a bit of practice
 
As SilentMike said, sounds like you need a swan neck pan connector......

Thanks for all the replies, I really appreciate them. I've never used one of these forums before, and wow I'm impressed!! The swanneck connector looks like what I need.
Rgrds to all
