Hi, does anyone have any recommendations for what pan connector arrangement would be best suited for a side entry soil pipe with 3” vertical offset? The pan is an ideal Standard Della and the deep side of the pan slightly obscures the soil pipe by about 5mm. I tried a straight flexi but it fouls the wall and a 90deg flexi was better but it seems to want to pull off the pan spigot and doesn’t sit straight in the soil pipe. Many Thanks

The issue you have is the pan is designed for rear exit or floor

Your going to need a bent extended pan connector a piece of 110mm or the adapter then a straight pan connector

Yes I am coming to that conclusion. Its a job I am doing for my mother in law. I have an ideal standard vue toilet boxed up in my spare room that I never got round to installing in my home. I think that has better access behind so may be easier to swap and install that.

Never ever do jobs for your mother in law I know, never get thanked if it works and battered by your beloved if it screws up , it a loose loose situation then her brothers criticise you becaus they are better than you because their sister married below her position ...aww

Just completed an amazing ensuite for mine. #shelovesme ;);):D
 
Think I'd put something under that 4" at floor level to try to raise it a smidge personally so its all a fall. The run off from that flexi will make everything 'stick' if you get my drift. If it can run a little faster it'll stay clearer longer. Just my opinion. ;)

Few options

Long 90° Back to Wall Flexible WC Connector

Or

90° Bend Adjustable Length Extended Inlet Rigid WC Connector

Combined with

Straight Adjustable Length Rigid WC Connector

If you use the second option I think you will need a Multikwik Multilink connector MKL1, it is just a sleeve that you put over the fins of the first connector before pushing into the other connector. I got one recently from Wolseley to do a job at my daughter's and it worked a treat.
