Toilet on plinth

[longdogs]

Hi

I have been asked to install a new toilet for a customer in a downstairs cloakroom. The exsisting one is sitting on a plinth which is about three inches high. The waste goes straight out of the wall. He would like, if possible to remove the plinth - he says that when he first moved into the house the original toilet was not sitting on a plinth.

My question is: Does anyone know if I can buy a toilet which has an outlet of around 9'' (230mm) high- from floor to centre of outlet?

I don't fancy using an offset or flexi connector as I think 3'' would be too much of a step up and also would make the water level in the pan too high.

many thanks

Don't suppose he fancies the expense of having a wall hung pan - then you could set it to any height you wish

Good thinking but nowhere to hide cistern unfortunately. Room is tiny and behind toilet is a window.

wall hung takes up no more room than a standard close coupled.

Nothing springs to mind - pans I've used are normally about 190mm or so to centre of outlet.

I assume the pipe goes to an external soil stack?

I think I can see where this is leading

Next question, does the OP own a ladder?

Why, is he very short?:
