I live in a detached house from the 1950s. The bathroom has a floor-mounted toilet with a surface-mounted cistern. We are considering replacing the cistern with a concealed one inside a boxed-in wall projection. Our plumber has inspected it and said that this wouldn't be possible with a floor-mounted toilet; it would have to be replaced with a wall-hung toilet. The costs for this are obviously significant. So my question is: Is it really not possible, and if so, why not?
The substructure plus double layer planning requires approximately 23cm (9 inches) in depth. In addition, the thickness of the tiles plus adhesive must be considered.
If you currently have that much space between the toilet and the wall, it might work.
However, this is also just a layperson’s opinion.
