Wall Mounted Toilet?
59 Answers
Does anyone have one?
I have a small bathroom and understand that they make the room look bigger. I also think they look nice and neat (I guess it's down to personal taste) but I wonder what the weight restrictions are....would hate to sit on it and break it off the wall. :o)
Any thoughts please? Thanks peeps. x

Depends on the strength of your walls but looks like the limit is about 400kgs http:// www.vic torianp lumbing .co.uk/ news/wh at-is-a -back-t o-wall- toilet. aspx
I know we could redo the bathroom sealant but the whole bathroom suite needs replacing, I reckon it's more than 30 years old and showing a lot of wear and tear. The previous owner fitted a shower shortly before we moved in, but the bath is the wrong shape and water runs down the side of the bath and soaks the floor. We intended to redo the bathroom when we moved here around 5 years ago, but haven't got round to it yet.
It seems that all modern cisterns have similar flush mechanisms inside - and these eventually need bits replacing ... which is fiddly enough when you can get at the cistern, but much more difficult when the cistern is concealed.
Even changing/tightening the seat on some 'back to wall' pans is a major effort.

Chaps wouldn't necessarily miss a wall mounted unit. Otherwise places like this would be awash.

Sorry Anne, didn't notice your comment up there....a jobby is the result of the job you do on the loo (don't bear thinking about too much).
Dave's got me thinking about the potential problems. What a bu88er. Slapshot, have you had yours for long? I'm guessing they are quite a new thing as I only discovered them (or noticed them I suppose) within the last few days.
Thanks for the link, 237. That's one heck of a weight!
