Good afternoon all. Several weeks ago I noticed a damp patch either side of a close coupled Twyfords WC that we have in our shower room. I have been unable to determine where the dampness in the tile grouting on the floor is coming from. I have looked carefully on several occasions but I can't see any signs of a water leak from any fittings, the cistern or the connection into the soil pipe. I am completely stumped. I had though that the bottom of the pan must be porous but I have had this WC about 4 years now and the damp patch only started a few months ago. I have inspected the inside of the pan very carefully with a bright light to look for cracks or any other signs that could indicate a leak. I have even taken the cistern off and refitted it with new sealing washers to be 100% sure there is no leak from the cistern, but the damp is toward the front of the pan, not at the rear where a leaky cistern would cause damp to show. I am completely stumped, the only place the damp can be coming from the the pan but that would mean it must be porous after 4 years. Has anyone seen this before?
Thanks.
Regards.
