Preparing for Back to Wall Toilet Pan Fitting
A — Flush pipe is supplied with the concealed cistern assembly, (cistern sold separately).
B — Pan connector (waste pipe) may need to be purchased separately if a new installation.
Please note: Pipes are not included.
Once you have received your toilet pan, this will allow you to prepare and install the cistern and WC unit (both sold separately). To install the cistern and WC unit, please use the instruction guides supplied with them.
This guide advises on installation of the back to wall toilet pan only.
Below example shows the assembly of a concealed cistern and WC unit prior to
fitting the back to wall toilet pan.
Back to Wall Toilet Pan Fitting
-
Prepare the pipes as advised (cutting of the flush pipe and pan connector may be required).
-
Add a small amount of lubricant (washing up liquid) to the seals on the pipes to assist with fitting, then push the toilet up to the finished wall / WC unit, with the pipes fully connected.
-
Ensure that the toilet pan is level and backed fully against the wall / WC unit, then mark on the outer edge of the pan (at both sides), align with each fixing hole located in the side wall of the toilet pan.
-
Remove the pan from the location, turn over, then measure the thickness of the toilet side wall and make another mark in from the original mark, and in line with the fixing hole, as shown below. Repeat on the other side.
-
If using the ‘L’ shaped bracket assembly, place the front edge of the bracket on the inside mark, then mark the screw hole position to secure the bracket to the floor. Repeat on the other side.
Please Note: For toilets which secure through the toilet directly into the floor, the L shaped bracket is not used.
-
Remove the brackets and drill the holes, ensuring that no pipes or cables can be damaged.
-
If fitting into a solid floor, you will need to install the screw plugs and tap flush to the floor, then place the brackets over the drilled holes/plugs and insert the screws and washers through the brackets and secure into position.
Please note: Depending on the specification, this may be a screwdriver slot, not a spanner fitting. -
After securing the brackets, re-ft the toilet pan and push it back fully against the wall / WC unit, so that the fixing holes align with the floor brackets.
-
Once aligned, secure the toilet pan into position using the fixings provided, do not over tighten. Finish by pushing on the screw covers.
-
Once the installation is completed, a small bead of silicone can be applied around the bottom edge of the toilet pan.
Troubleshooting
Flush volume into the pan, not sufficient
- Adjust the flush volume level on the syphon.
- Check that the syphon is opening correctly.
- If none of these resolve the issue replace the syphon.
Water running into the pan continually after flushing
-
Establish if the water level in the cistern is reaching the overflow on the syphon, if it does reach the overflow adjust the inlet valve.
If this continues, replace the inlet valve -
If the water level does not reach the overflow on the syphon, remove the top section of the syphon and check the washer for damage.
-
If the washer is damaged then replace.
Maintenance
All of the maintenance measures resulting from troubleshooting above requires you to access the internals of the cistern tank and for the water supply to be turned off. Please refer to the instruction guide supplied with your cistern for further guidance.
Please note: Before carrying out any internal maintenance, turn off the water supply.
Cleaning
To maintain the surface finish of your product, wipe clean after every use, using a clean damp cloth, a mild detergent mixture can be used. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or materials which can strip and scratch the surface; the use of these agents or materials can invalidate your guarantee.
