Product Information
Full details
The iBathUK Harper 500 Back To Wall WC Unit is designed for homeowners and renovators seeking a streamlined, minimalist aesthetic in their bathroom. Its primary benefit is the ability to hide unsightly cistern plumbing behind a clean, floor-mounted facade, resulting in a professional and organized look. While it offers excellent space-saving dimensions of 800mm by 500mm, prospective buyers should be aware that the unit arrives flat-packed and requires assembly, necessitating basic DIY skills or professional assistance to install correctly.

FAQs
Does this unit include the toilet pan?
No, the Harper 500 is the WC unit housing only. You will need to purchase a compatible back-to-wall toilet pan and a concealed cistern separately.
Is the unit water-resistant?
While the finish is durable, it is made of wood-based materials. It is essential to seal all joints and cut-outs with silicone to prevent moisture damage.
Can I use this with any toilet pan?
It is designed to work with most standard back-to-wall floor-mounted toilet pans. Verify the dimensions of your chosen pan against the unit's 500mm width.
How do I access the cistern for repairs?
The unit is designed with a removable front panel to allow for internal maintenance of the flush valve and cistern parts.
What tools are required for assembly?
You will typically need a screwdriver, a spirit level, a drill for wall mounting, and a jigsaw for cutting the pan access hole.
Troubleshooting
Unit feels unstable after installation
Verify that the unit is securely screwed into the wall studs or masonry and that the base is level.
Swelling around the cut-out areas
Ensure all edges created during the cutting process are thoroughly sealed with waterproof silicone.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, begin by assembling the frame according to the provided instructions. You will need to cut the front fascia to fit your specific back-to-wall toilet pan and the flush button. Ensure you use silicone sealant around all pipe entry points and joints to prevent water ingress, which can damage the wood structure over time. For daily care, wipe the oak surface with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can compromise the laminate finish. Periodically check that the unit remains flush against the wall and that all mounting screws remain tight.
