Inspect all connections for tightness. Check seals and gaskets for wear or damage. Professional inspection may be required.
Ensure the acoustic mat is correctly installed. Check for any loose components that might be vibrating. The product inherently includes noise dampening features.
Setup: Installation requires mounting the frame to the floor and wall according to manufacturer guidelines. The cistern is then connected to the water supply, and the flush pipe is connected to the wall-hung toilet. Final wall finishing (e.g., tiling) conceals the frame and cistern.
Compatibility: This frame is designed for use with standard wall-hung toilets. Ensure that the chosen toilet bowl's rough-in and mounting points are compatible with the frame's support system. The cistern requires a standard water supply connection.
Care: The concealed cistern and frame are largely maintenance-free. For cleaning the visible toilet bowl, use standard bathroom cleaners. Access to the cistern for maintenance is typically through the flush plate access panel. Avoid abrasive cleaners on any visible components.
