I've come on here as really need some help with buying a new oil boiler please.
My current Firebird Olympic 50-80 is about 40 years old and my wonderful plumber has kept it going but its days are numbered.
I'm looking for a new oil boiler that would go on the wall so that I can make space...
A few years ago I installed a wall hung toilet pan in my last house which did not flush well when disposing of waste solids.
The water would rise up to the rim then dissipate and usually required further flushing to complete the disposal.
I don't recall the brand but the wall mounting frame was...
Hi Everyone. Simple question really-Are wall hung toilet frames universal? client has one existing. So can we just replace the pan, potentially with a different manufacturer, but not necessarily. Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I'm a homeowner, not a DIYer. I have an almost 1 year old SaniCompact Comfort wall-hung toilet which has worked flawlessly until about a month ago. The last couple of times it was used, it made a loud noise and acted like it didn't want to flush. I guessed that it might be time to...
My sister bought a new build property which has wall hung toilets, NK by Noke Porcelona
The pans are all moving enough for the silicone sealant to fail across the top of the pan and if you put a bit of weight on it it opens up by about 5mm. They've been in use (light use 4 toilets in a holiday...
Hello. I'm redoing 3 bathrooms at the moment and was planning to install RAK rimless toilets with Grohe cisterns/frames for all three based on recommendations from my local bathroom shop. Since then, I've found some reviews that say RAK toilets look great but struggle with flushing anything...
Hi, just installing a wall hung toilet on a grohe duofix frame + hardie + metro tiles.
All fine so far, just pushed the pan on rods and tightened as test run before attaching flush pipe and waste.
When fully tightened I can still lift the pan up slightly I.e. bottom of pan comes away from...
I went in to fit a small wall hung basin today and had a devil of a job trying to keep it tight to the wall along the top edge. I’ve done a couple of wall hung basins before but never had one where the fixing points were right at the bottom. It was supplied with 2 wall anchors which I installed...
Hi, i have recently had to do a DIY job on a wall hung toilet as couldn't get a plumber booked. I did the grohe rapid sl frame against a solid wall. No movement that i could physically create. I used some timber to frame and put some plasterboard and mdf panelling on.
Now the toilet is secured...
Good evening all, I've purchased a wall hung toilet frame (Abacus) and installed the toilet pan this evening but it's not seated against the wall and there is movement (bsdically I can move the pan up and down a little bit). What could be the issue? Struggling to fix iy and I've cut down the...
My plumber says I’m missing the bits that go into the back of the toilet (two small holes either side) he’s only fitted side fixing ones before he’s says. Anyone know what they are called. Unfortunately I bought from Victoria plum and they are no use
I am having a wall hung toilet installed in an upstairs bathroom. The toilet will be built into a wall which will be 780mm tall. There will be a 10mm thick piece of wood stuck on top to give a total height of 790mm. This built out wall will protrude 220mm from a brick party wall.

Hi Everyone
Just looking for some advice with this issue I have with a wall hung toilet I am adding to my bathroom. The problem I have is that when I set the ideal height of the toilet (410mm when sitting on toilet) and taking into account tiles and hardibacker (approx 30mm?), the waste pipe...
I’ve eventually got the pan installed on the frame! What a nightmare that was!!
The frame and pan are Grohe.
Just got a couple of questions:
1) The flush plate is quite bulky and stops the flush part in the cistern fully opening. Seems a poor design and feels like I need to pad the back of...

We're looking to install a wall hung wc and hope to include it in a run of units. I'm thinking we can do it with a half height frame and normal concealed system. Can we do this against a stud wall or do we need a solid wall to attach the frame or cistern to?
Also which makes do you recommend?
I have a Vitra reduced height 75/108cm frame to fit a Vitra wall hung WC to. I also have a 550 x 210mm cabinet to fit around it.
