Troubleshooting

Connector is leaking.

Check and tighten the hose-clip. Ensure the connector is properly inserted into both the toilet pan and soil pipe. Inspect for any cracks or damage to the connector.

Difficulty in installing the connector.

Make sure the soil pipe is clear of any obstructions. If the space is very tight, try adjusting the toilet pan slightly to provide more room. Ensure the connector is aligned correctly.

Toilet is flushing slowly.

Ensure that the connector is not excessively bent, as this can restrict flow. Check the soil pipe for any blockages.
