Product Information

Full details

This Viva Extension WC Pan Connector is designed for plumbers and DIY enthusiasts needing a reliable solution for connecting a toilet pan to a 4" (110mm) waste pipe. Its key benefit is its flexibility, allowing for precise fitting in various scenarios due to its cut-to-size length and adjustable inlet. A potential caveat is that it requires basic plumbing knowledge for proper installation to ensure a leak-free seal.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum length of this connector?

The product description states the 'Length Can Be Cut To Suit', indicating it's designed to be trimmed. It does not specify a fixed maximum length, but it is intended for extending connections as needed.

Can I use this with a 3" pipe?

No, this connector is specifically designed for 4" (110mm) pipes only.

What types of soil pipes are compatible?

It is suitable for both 4" (110mm) PVC-U and cast iron soil pipes.

What is the diameter range of the toilet pan spigot it fits?

The inlet fits all toilet pan spigots between 90mm and 107mm in diameter.

Do I need any special tools to install this?

You will need a saw (preferably fine-toothed) to cut the connector to length, and potentially a measuring tape. Basic plumbing tools may also be useful for ensuring a secure fit.

Is this connector flexible like a push-fit type?

No, this is a rigid polypropylene connector that is cut to size. It provides a stable, fixed connection once installed.

What is the material of the connector?

It is manufactured from high-quality polypropylene.

Troubleshooting

Leak detected at the connection point

Check that the connector is fully seated on both the toilet pan spigot and the soil pipe. Ensure the connector was cut to the correct length and that the ends are clean. If using on cast iron pipe, ensure a tight seal may require additional sealant or a compression fitting adapter.

Connector is too short or too long after cutting

Carefully re-measure the required length. If too short, a new connector will be needed. If too long, trim further to the correct measurement. Always measure twice before cutting.

Difficulty fitting onto the toilet pan spigot

Ensure the spigot is clean and free of any old sealant or debris. If the spigot is slightly outside the 90-107mm range, consider if a different type of connector or adapter is needed.

Connector appears damaged

Inspect for cracks or deformation. If damage is found, the connector should be replaced immediately to prevent leaks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Measure the required distance between the toilet pan spigot and the soil pipe.
  2. Carefully cut the Viva Extension WC Pan Connector to the measured length using appropriate tools (e.g., a fine-tooth saw).
  3. Ensure the ends are clean and free of debris.
  4. Fit the wider end (90-107mm) onto the toilet pan spigot, ensuring a snug fit.
  5. Insert the cut end into the 4" (110mm) soil pipe.
  6. Test for leaks by running water through the toilet.

Compatibility:

  • Toilet Pan Spigot: Compatible with all toilet pan spigots measuring between 90mm and 107mm in diameter.
  • Soil Pipe: Suitable for 4" (110mm) diameter PVC-U and cast iron soil pipes.

Care:

This connector is designed for long-term use within a waste system. Routine cleaning of the toilet and associated plumbing should prevent any buildup that could affect the connector. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners directly on the connector, though typical household cleaning products are generally safe.
