FAQs
Does this system include the flush plate?
Please check your specific package contents, as some installations require a compatible flush plate to be purchased separately depending on your aesthetic preference.
Can this be installed in a stud wall?
Yes, provided the stud wall is reinforced to support the weight of the frame and the mounted toilet pan.
How do I access the cistern for repairs?
Access is typically achieved by removing the flush plate or through a discreet access panel designed during the initial tiling process.
Is this compatible with all toilet pans?
It is compatible with most standard wall-hung or back-to-wall pans, but always verify the connection points before installation.
What is the primary material of the frame?
The system features a robust, corrosion-resistant steel frame designed to support the weight of the toilet securely.
Troubleshooting
Weak flush performance
Check the flush valve settings and ensure the water supply pressure is sufficient for the cistern capacity.
Constant water running in the pan
Inspect the inlet valve seal for debris or calcium buildup and clean the diaphragm washer.
Flush button not responding
Verify the cable or rod connection between the button and the flush valve is not kinked or disconnected.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Significantly improves bathroom aesthetics
- Water-efficient dual flush technology

- Easier floor cleaning due to wall-concealed components
Cons
- Requires access panels for future maintenance
- Installation is more complex than standard toilets
- Wall reinforcement may be needed in certain builds
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires mounting the steel frame to a solid wall or floor structure before boxing it in with moisture-resistant boarding or tiles. Always ensure the frame is perfectly level to prevent future stress on the pan connections. When installing, it is critical to include an access panel in the wall design, allowing for future servicing of the internal flush valves. For care, keep the flush plate clean with a non-abrasive cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the finish of the actuators.
