FAQs
What is a back to wall toilet?
A back to wall toilet is a toilet pan designed to be fitted directly against a wall, with the cistern concealed within the wall cavity or a furniture unit. This creates a very clean and minimalist look.
Do I need to buy a cistern separately?
Yes, this product is just the toilet pan. You will need to purchase a compatible concealed cistern and flush plate separately to complete the installation.
Is professional installation required?
Yes, due to the concealed cistern and back-to-wall installation method, professional plumbing and installation are highly recommended to ensure a correct and safe setup.
How do I clean a rimless toilet bowl?
Cleaning a rimless bowl is simpler as there are no hidden ledges. Use a toilet brush and cleaner to reach all internal surfaces and then wipe down the exterior. Regular cleaning prevents any buildup.
What does 'comfort height' mean for a toilet?
Comfort height refers to a toilet bowl that is slightly taller than standard. This provides a more comfortable seating position, making it easier to sit down and stand up, which is beneficial for taller individuals or those with mobility issues.
What is the benefit of a soft close seat?
A soft close seat has a mechanism that gently lowers the lid and seat without slamming. This prevents noise and potential damage to the seat or toilet bowl.
Can I use bleach to clean the toilet?
It is generally advised to avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, especially undiluted, as they can potentially damage the ceramic glaze over time. Mild, non-abrasive cleaners are recommended.
Troubleshooting
Toilet does not flush or flushes weakly.
Check that the concealed cistern is filling correctly and the flush mechanism is properly engaged. Ensure the water supply valve to the cistern is fully open. Refer to the cistern manual for detailed flushing mechanism troubleshooting.
Slow water drainage from the bowl.
This could indicate a partial blockage in the waste pipe or the trap. A plumber may need to inspect and clear the obstruction. Ensure the correct flush volume is set on the cistern.
Seat is not closing softly.
The soft-close mechanism may be obstructed or damaged. Gently check for any hindrances. If the issue persists, the seat may need replacement.
Visible water marks or staining in the bowl.
Clean the bowl with a suitable non-abrasive cleaner. If stains are persistent, a descaler might be needed, but use with caution on the ceramic finish. Ensure the cistern is refilling adequately after each flush to keep the trap full.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This is a back-to-wall toilet pan that requires a concealed cistern and a flush plate for operation. It must be installed onto a robust frame or stud wall suitable for supporting the pan and cistern. Ensure all water connections are made by a qualified plumber. The cistern and flush mechanism are typically sold separately and must be compatible with this toilet pan.
Compatibility: Compatible with standard concealed cisterns and dual flush plates designed for back-to-wall toilets. Ensure the chosen cistern has the correct water inlet and outlet specifications for the pan. The frame system used for installation must be sturdy and appropriate for wall-hung or back-to-wall sanitaryware.
Care: To maintain the toilet's finish and hygiene:
- Wipe the ceramic surface regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
- For stubborn marks, use a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive pads, which can damage the glaze.
- Clean the rimless area and under the seat thoroughly with a toilet brush and appropriate cleaner.
- Periodically check the flush mechanism and water connections for any signs of leaks. Refer to the cistern manufacturer's guide for internal cistern maintenance.
