Using the Frame in a Furniture Unit
When installing the frame into a WC furniture unit, some struts may need to be removed. Always check before cutting
that the unit integrity will not be compromised. Units can be screwed to adjoining units in a run where possible to add
further strength.
Front struts in a WC furniture unit will cause the frame to be spaced away from the main WC facing fascia of a WC unit.
This will create a void which will need to be filled (between the frame and the back of the main fascia) to stop the main
fascia bowing in when the WC is in use.

You may need to remove the feet in a fitted furniture WC Unit to facilitate room for the frame. The unit can be wall hung
instead.
Any back rails in a WC Unit must be removed or repositioned to the back of the unit if they are not already. Frame
brackets must screw directly into a solid wall. Screwing into a rail or strut that is not secured up against a solid wall will
not prove strong enough when the frame is in use.
General Care & Safety
Wall plugs supplied are ONLY suitable for solid stone/brick walls. They are not suitable for use in aerated blocks or
similar. If fixing to a stud wall, sufficient extra internal reinforcements must be made to the wall. Screws must locate into
suitably reinforced studs and noggins.
Take care using power tools – The use of a residual current device (RCD) is recommended. Beware of hidden cables or
pipes when drilling.
This product can be dangerous if installed incorrectly. This product must be installed by a qualified plumber or installer.
It is the installer’s responsibility to check that the fixings are suitable for the installation in hand.
Cistern fittings are suitable for Water pressure: 0.1 - 10 bar. Do not add caustic chemical substances (eg containing
chlorine compounds or similar) into the cistern. These can damage the valve components and cause failure.
Before starting to enclose the frame, the system must be first tested for leaks before 2nd fix commences. Using the
help of a second person to hold the pan in place on the frame, turn on the water supply and flush the pan to check for
leaks.
This product must be installed by a qualified fitter or plumber in accordance with and meet the requirements of
Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999, the Water Supply (Water Fittings) (Scotland) Byelaws 2014 and
the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2009

Installation of Waste Pipe
The diaphragm can be removed and cleaned if the flow rate slows down or doesn’t stop. The images above show
how the valve can be disassembled and cleaned. Turn off the water supply on the internal stop valve before removal.
To clean the aerators,
remove the cap from the top
of the inlet valve and remove
the aerators by pushing them
out from underneath the
outlet hole using a
screwdriver or equivalent
If the flow rate is still too
slow, the filter can also be
removed from the inlet of
the valve for cleaning using
long nose pliers. Ensure to
reinsert the filter before
reconnecting the water.
The flush valve can be adjusted to increase or decrease the
amount of water used during each flush. It is factory set for 6L
full flush & 3L reduced flush.
Twist anti clockwise
and remove through the

To allow space for the installation of the waste pipe allow at least 170mm of space between the wall and the wall
hung frame.
The waste pipe can be installed easily by opening up the fixing collar and positioning the lip of the waste pipe inside
the collar. The collar should then be clipped closed to secure the waste pipe in place before it is connected to the
toilet pan.

The height of the frame and
distance from the wall can be
adjusted manually with the bolts
found on the top fixing bracket
and the legs of the frame. Loosening the bolts will allow the frame to
be adjusted accordingly. Use a
spirit level to ensure the frame is
level. Re-tighten the bolts to
secure the frame into its new
position.
Using the dimensional drawing
above as a guide, mark and drill
holes in the appropriate places
using a 10mm masonry drill bit. If
the frame has been adjusted,
mark off the new hole positions
accordingly.
Use a piece of

Using the wall fixings provided,
secure the frame to the wall.
Ensure that the fixings supplied
are suitable for the installation in
hand. If in doubt consult an
expert.

The isolation valve should come pre-assembled with the cistern. If the valve needs replacing, the above
instructions show the correct installation procedure.
IMPORTANT: Flush out all impurities in the system prior to connection. Before building the final cladding,
install the pan, turn on the water supply and fill the pan. Check tightness of supply and drain connections.
Close the isolation valve and drain the cistern and pan, then remove the pan. Connect the water supply to the
cistern using an approved double check valve to fluid category 3.

1. Place the inlet and waste pipe into the frame and place a mark that corresponds to the finished surface
of the wall.
2. Then place both pipes onto the back of the pan and using a straight edge, place a mark that
corresponds to the back face of the pan
3. The distance between these two marks corresponds to the amount of pipe that needs to be cut off to
enable the pan to fit snugly against the finished wall surface.
4. BEFORE cutting the pipes, add a further 6mm to the amount to be cut off on the inlet pipe.
Add a further 3mm to the amount to be cut off the waste pipe.
X + 6mm
Y+3 mm
Before the partition wall is installed around the wall hung frame, the plastic protective casing needs to be
screwed onto the cistern in the desired position to ensure that the push plate or flush button can be installed
later. Ensure that there is minimum of a 3mm gap between the protective casing cover and the aperture in
the partition wall (or furniture fascia). Click the blanking plate in place to prevent any debris entering the
cistern during the 2nd fix.

Install the bungs in the waste and flush pipes to protect them during any building work. Similarly, the threaded
rods on which the toilet pan will be hung should be installed at a distance corresponding to the width of the pan
fixing holes. When screwed into place, the flexible sheaths should be put on the rods for protection.
5. It is ESSENTIAL that the extra distance is added to cut away extra material, this is to allow for compression of finished surfaces when the WC pan is installed. Take care to cut straight otherwise leaks will occur.
6. Once cut, add a chamfer to the end of the pipe to ensure that it can be easily located inside the
pipework in the wall hung frame. Using a suitable lubricant, locate the waste pipe into the frame.
Push the trimmed pipes into position as shown and check that they are secure. DO NOT use silicone when
attaching the inlet pipe as this may prevent a seal from forming. Remove the protective flexible sheaths from
the threaded rods. Position the pan taking care that the connecting pipes are well aligned to prevent leaks.
Use a spirit level to make sure the pan is level and then fix to the rods with the fixings supplied by the pan
manufacturer.

Ensure the rotation of the blue,
reduced flush float is in the
correct position, and has locked
in place securely.
If it isn’t (as shown left) the float
can catch on the adjustment
measure. To lock in place,
simply rotate the float
anticlockwise.
The flush valve does not work
properly.
The pneumatic tubes may have been installed
incorrectly on the flush plate.
Ensure that the tubes match the
following configuration and are
fully sealed around the nozzles:
The blue tube must be
connected to the joint marked
with a half circle.
The transparent tube should be
connected with the joint marked
with a full circle.
There is dripping water from the
inlet of the WC pan.
Ensure that the black flush inlet pipe (SP14733)
has been prepared properly.
1. Ensure that silicone has not been used to on the rubber pan seal
(SP12170) as this may prevent a seal from being formed.
2. Ensure that the flush pipe has
been cut square.
3. Ensure that the flush pipe has
been filed to add a chamfer to the
end as this helps the pipe properly
locate into the cistern’s pipework.
4. Ensure that the inlet pipe hasn’t been cut too short and that 6mm
was added to the dimension ‘X’, where X was the excess pipe
between the rear of the pan and the finished surface of the wall.
Please refer to the installation instructions for further guidance
