Extending A Multikwik Pan Connector
I'm about to fit a new WC in our ground floor toilet where room is limited .
The problem I have is where the 100mm waste pipe comes out of the floor it doesn't leave me a lot of room to make a decent connection and as i'm fitting a back to wall cistern(trying to save space i'm limited to what I can and cannot do .
One option that I thought of (,if it is an option) is to extend the existing Multikwik by about 30mm ,but i'm not even sure if a fitting exists that will do this ,I didn't really want to cut the existing 100mm waste pipe and put a bendy Multikwik in ,as I think the sweep of the bend will push the WC out a bit to far.
Any ideas would be great .
Sorry if the above seems a bit vague .Basically i'm very tight for room and cannot move the WC out to far in the room.
Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply.
I'd already looked at these extensions ,but I think they will push the new pan to far out.
I didn't want to ,but I may have to cut the old multikwik off along with a small length of waste pipe and put a bendy multikwik on ,just hope that if I do this it still leaves me enough room to get the sweep bend and not push the pan out to far.

A pan connector for cutting down and making and extension with may help ... https:/
Just a thought you might want to consider .. a friend of mine does drains and he has told me in the past, of the amount of call outs he has had to flexible toilet wastes.
What happens is where the waste bends (on the outside edge) and create a concertina effect, the raised edges are just right for rats to get their teeth in and knaw a hole through the pipe, this allows them to enter the property.
Personally I would struggle on and try and do it with the vast selection of alternative pipes that are out there.
