I want to fit a small washbasin inside and outdoor toilet. I'm
wondering about the basin waste - the only place I can route it to
would be the back of the toilet. Is there any way to connect the PVC
waste pipe to a pan connector? The pan connector is a swan next type
going down into the floor.


To add to what Ed has said, one of the main problems will be
enduring that the trap of the basin is properly ventilated. In ye
olden days that would be by an air admittance pipe running up the
building, these days there are a variety of gadgets with valves
built in to them to do the same thing.


Use of a U-trap or bottle trap on the basin with an integral air
admittance valve is what I would suggest. I've used these a few
times and they work very well.
