good vid mate. only thing i would add is that you check for power wires in the wall and floor before drilling. my bathroom had some wires where i least expected them

[@MrPlumber18]

Good idea to silicon rubber ring between cistern and pan as they often leak depending on brand

[@Thc14Me]

+MrPlumber18 Thanks, that's what I found too.

[@hourofthedog]

[@abdulrahimkhan4316]

good job tom

[@TheAmazingTv]

thank you very much

[@gofroggy1231]

This is a really informative helpful video but I wonder how I overcome the problem I have that the soil pipe on mine is an old iron one. It comes out too far as it is so the cistern has a block of wood behind it and the tiles. If I fit one of those plastic sleeves like the one you push the outlet into my toilet will be even further off the wall than it is now. All the videos seem to have convenient soil pipes. How do you overcome a problem like that without having to change the downpipes etc

[@hardworker2877]

REALLY good video. I just wish you would have shown the connection to the waste pipe.

[@anzbatman2297]

Cheers bro

[@indianacontractors6154]

#ND Trung Great video. But WHAT did you anchor the pan to IE: did you install plugs in the hole through the floor ? @John Turner

[@190055joe]

A plumber who knows what his doing and not use brute force good to see.

[@vsgP7117]

It would be complete and perfect if we see the waste pipe fitted. Thanks a lot, really.

[@Smackthat007]

Good video, but can you please upload a video on how to change the inside of the toilet flush system on a dual flush toilet like in this video? Mine has gone faulty in terms of flushing, I need the new inside thing, just need to know how to replace it? Cheers

[@Lioness_2nd]

thank you

[@MsStanleyr]

Great video. But WHAT did you anchor the pan to IE: did you install plugs in the hole through the floor ?

[@omarazz7925]

[@jahangirhossan9891]

[@650GSF]

very usefull video :-)

[@andresvega1355]

could I buy one toilet pan & cisterna in mexico city. Like is installing in the video

[@BayaniMagtanggol]

what type of toilet is that with horizontal tubing? how do you call that?

[@vsgP7117]

Yes, I didnt see it fitted! We just pressumed that a waste pipe is already buit-in the wall going down the manhole..ohoh,,

[@jonyboy1968]

Didn't show what I wanted to see. The connecting to the water source.

[@jangyang327]

good

[@KINGsizeWINNER]

What about the inbound water line?

[@toughexercises]

any tips. my toilet is very similar, but after a flush it won't stop and overflows constant, do I need a new cistern as it looks like a spurious make, cheers

[@chembleton]

when it constantly overflows, it's usually the mechanism inside that needs adjusting. It may just be stuck, give it a wiggle. I'm not an expert but fixed my sisters due to hers overflowing where the water wasn't being switched off by the mechanism when it should. I had been twisted and was sticking against the inside of the cistern

[@toughexercises]

many thanks

[@drgigiwafi3615]

Good

[@superlambing14]

how about the water pipes?

[@yrofot]

All pretty obvious really, but still nice to have it spelt out.

[@johnhughes8491]

to Tommy trade im geting a new toilet to day

[@clubcardpoints]

What about the water pipe to the cistern?

[@rubarubadub]

Why did you add nuts at the bottom of the cistern? The cistern looks very precarious sitting on the pan like that. Also once there's 6 litres of water in the cistern, there'll be a lot of weight concentrated on those two nuts

[@vipinchandran1223]

M Nicholls yaaa

[@DG-ym8wj]

M Nicholls ظ.

[@markvickers9677]

M Nicholls all the other videos I've watched show the threads from the cistern fitting through the pan, then the nuts, washers etc fasten the cistern to the pan. Amateurs

[@YENDORCARLOS]

were's the toilet base wall plugs ?, good video though !

[@mrcymru1972]

no mention of how to connect the water etc???

[@terishagovender7336]

silicone and water not a good idea you would have to wait for it to dry, my husband uses instead putty on the washers for a better seal and leak prevention, never the less a great video keep it up!

[@superlambing14]

how about the water pipes? that is a secret. lol

[@kevinchamberlain7928]

Didn't connect the water!

[@abidmiah4756]

X📻🔋perfected ferreted

[@tomsacadden]

c'mon you guys, a little common sense here, as you drill the wall holes you put a little downward pressure on the drill,cos' you know that the cistern will be pulled down by a few mm, it's not rocket science,if you can't follow it,why are you viewing it ?

[@beverleyrendell31]

use a licenced plumber

[@samdanish]

very good

[@lizayu2749]
