Hi, Im fitting one of these on Friday, I always try not to as i like to pipe everything ridgid i.e endfeed tap con's and ridgid pan connecters and with these style of toilets its near impossilble to do sometimes.
Anyway the customer has insisted he wants one as the toilet is the first thing you see when you open the bathroom door and its perpendicular so you see the cold feed and waste. I knew he wanted everything looking pritty so i went to the trouble of redoing the soilstack to get the waste underneath the floor with just the top lip of the socket on the 4" protruding above the finished tiled floor, the cold feed i also re-routed under the floor and was turned up though the floor in chrome.
The problem is the 15mm chrome is a talon clip distance away from the wall and the poxy pan has a brace at the bottom of it so the cold feed needs to come off the wall further to miss this brace.
I say brace, its a pit of porcelin about an inch x 3/4". Im considering cutting it out but thought i'd ask your vieews on this first. It doesnt look like it offers too much in the way of support either?
It's hard toexplain aswell, but if this brace at the bottom was removed it would also mean i could pipe up alot easier aswell as the brace means the built up toilet has to be lowered in and down over the cold feed rather than connecting then just pushing it back to the wall if you understand :smug:
I hope you understand what i mean, its hard to convey in words what i mean!
