Did one last week and the fill valve was on the left (most cisterns fill on the right) Maybe that's what it means. No reason why it wont fit in any corner you want

I found it meant something different when I was in India!!

depends which you wipe with

 

[Dannypipe]

After I've spent half hour reading The Sun, there's no need to wipe.....

Sorry, I've gone too far!

side of the fill valve is what is meant.

or it could be the direction the corner wc is faced/angled seeing as it is a corner appliance!

does that mean youd have to get left handed toilet paper?

I prefer to hold the seat up with my left hand ...

Hmm!

In the old days a Left or Right handed toilet pan meant the direction the outlet faced on a "P" trap pan. In those days Multi Kwiks and the likes where not about and the pan outlet spigot direction was cast as part of the pan.

As to the cistern they are usually converted left or right as you want by changing the innards around.

Its is unusual to be asked if you want a Left or Right handed toilet now days though. Its usually a straight "P" trap outlet and you use a bent Multi Kwik to change direction. Be interested to find out what Left or Right hand means now though.

We had 18 years of right hand toilets, then 13 years of left hand toilets, and now we're 9 months into straight toilets ... I think I've lowered the tone more than enough ...
