New cistern leaking into pan

[Leigh Florence]

Thank you rightjob and rpm for replying.

Is anyone able to tell me how i can work out if a different manufacturer will for sure mean the flush panel and waste pipe position will be different? Do i just have to study the technical drawings and try to work it out? I phoned Geberit and they said they couldn't comment on other manufacturer models. I can't bare having to cut a whole new panel again. Photo attached.

Don't forget the method of hanging the pan on the wall varies.

Who would be an expert in WC frame concealed cisterns (across brands)? Is there a plumbers shop i could telephone does anyone know?

Update. 3 Grohe WC frames installed and removed. 5 flush valves, 2 with putty put around. Couldn't stop leak. Replaced with Geberit. No leak everything working perfectly. Geberit WC frame was 3mm deeper and the stud wall had to be knotched out. The flush plate was wider and not as tall, so new cover panel had to be cut so as to not leave a hole, but all other holes for bolts, waste, flush all the same. Anyway, Grohe had no explanation as to why their cisterns leak, and they are the official partner of Saniflo in the combined WC frame/macerator product. If i didn't have a macerator i may never have noticed. No one was really that interested at Grohe. Still waiting for them to cover costs. They took 4 months of my life. My bathroom taken apart and put together 3 times.

I understand. But your glass should be half full

Geberit is the best for hanging pans or basins

Interesting, as far as I'm aware the frame is different as it gives full access to the macerator which others didn’t however any pan and cistern can be used.
Ah! Just remembered that is for the Sani wall pump only.
