Hey all, and Merry Christmas!
I purchased a Wirquin Concealed Cistern, and was wondering is there a recommend height from toilet that I should install? Just asking as seen a video of a guy saying he installs them high for a better flush, thing is I don't want it too high as will sit in a vanity. Is 88cm from the floor reasonable for the cistern?

Does it give a min height in the instructions ? you can shorten the flush pipe if required, but with any concealed cistern, make sure that it has easy access for future maintenance, be surprised how meny we cant get to after they have been installed.

No, instructions purchased from someone. How high do you install concealed cisterns yourself.?
 
As high as possible
 
As high as possible. The length of flush pipe is what dictates the max height aswell as your vanity unit.
 
My concealed cistern is in same height unit but is set lower by virtue of the mounting brackets that ensure service clearance (just).
Flush end needs to be vee notched to follow shape of internal moulding to achieve best spray pattern apparently - a tip from a plumber in Plumbase. It does work well but may have anyway...
