Troubleshooting
Pan is unstable after installation.
Ensure the pan is securely bolted to the floor and the floor is level. Check that the cistern is correctly and securely attached to the pan.
Visible pipework is not concealed.
Verify that the cistern and pan are correctly aligned and connected as per the installation instructions for the cistern and pan. Ensure the cistern is a close-coupled model designed for this purpose.
Water leaks around the base.
Check the floor bolts and the seal between the pan and the waste pipe. If the leak persists, it may indicate an issue with the pan's seal or waste connection that requires professional attention.
Stains or limescale build-up.
Use a non-abrasive toilet cleaner specifically designed for ceramic surfaces. Allow the cleaner to sit for a few minutes before scrubbing gently with a soft brush and rinsing thoroughly.
