We're thinking about a wall hung loo for our small cloakroom and looking at
using a frame like this.

http://www.victorianplumbing.co.uk/c...ung-frame.aspx

Are wall hung pans standardised in terms of mounting bolt points, flush
pipe and soil pipe positioning? Can i order one from anywhere and be
confident that it'll fit?

Tim

Mmm not sure anyone would guarantee that... The frame I fitted (gerberit iirc) adjusted in many ways, to fit a separately bought pan. I remember checking tech drawings etc before committing but the frame was an eBay bargain so I took the plunge!

As a general rule they seem to be standard - however I would not rule
out there being more than one standard out there!

I can't answer your question, but I have one of my own. Why on earth
would anyone want a wall-hung toilet? It makes no engineering sense
whatsoever. Fifteen stone cantilevered off a wall when mere inches below
there's a floor.

If using a frame then the frame has legs on the floor behind the wall,
so the load is spread between wall and floor. The advantage is that it
is easy to clean the whole floor.

.....bacuase cleaning around a toilet of too difficult...!

The load is still cantilvered. The load will try to rotate around the
lowest fixing point or support.

Not to mention a very "minimalist" visual effect with no visible cistern
or plumbing.

I've got two.

Why on earth would anyone want a wall-hung toilet?

Because it makes it a hell of a lot easier to sweep the floor in there.

It makes no engineering sense whatsoever.

Its trivially easy to do.

Fifteen stone cantilevered off a wall when mere inches below there's a
floor.

Because it makes it much easier to clean the floor.

I did the same thing with the kitchen bench too,
cantilevered that off the wall so I can just slide
in the dishwasher, cupboards, bar fridge sized
small freezers etc under that and have that
area completely flexible. That allowed me
to have two dishwasher etc trivially when
I wanted to do that.

That bench is 20 feet long, entirely
cantilevered with no legs at all anywhere.
No supports that get in the way of what
is under it either. The whole thing is made
of 38mm welded square tube in a rectangular
frame dynabolted to the concrete block walls.
which are in a U there with the bench filling
the entire space between the verticals of the U.
There is nothing below the RHS frame at all
so I can do anything I like below it with complete
flexibility.

Mine has horizontal sections that end up under the tiled floor.
Nothing on the wall at all.

so the load is spread between wall and floor. The advantage is that it is

Yeah, leaves the other approach for dead cleaning wise.

Lot more convenient.

The load is still cantilvered.

And works fine.

the lowest fixing point or support.

Still works fine.
