Because of their simplicity and hygiene, concealed in-wall toilets cisterns are the best choice for commercial premises like shopping centers, restaurants, and bars. They are becoming increasingly popular in residential bathrooms due to their aesthetic appeal and benefits.
There are many models to choose from, with different design features. In this blog, we will discuss the benefits of in-wall toilets and provide information on how to install them.
There are two types of toilets that can accept in-wall cisterns.
Wall-hung pans: These toilets can be mounted to the wall and are above the floor. The toilet is located beneath the floor.
These toilets can be mounted directly to the floor with wall-faced pans. There is no space between the floor and the bottom of the pan, unlike a wall-hung toilet. Everything is hidden because all plumbing and waste pipes run straight into the floor or wall.
Access to installation and maintenance
The cistern component can be installed in the wall cavity using either a wall-hung or wall-faced pan. It is usually placed behind the pan with a specially-designed frame. Some in-wall cisterns may also be installed behind a cavity or cabinet. The flush button plate, which is usually located on the wall above the pan, is the only thing that is visible.
Cisterns in-wall have a bad reputation because they are difficult to install and maintain. The reason for this is that the first models were not available in Australia and you had to purchase the system and the fixing kits separately. It was difficult to find spare parts.
High-quality cisterns can be installed much more easily these days. These cisterns come with all the necessary tools and can be installed by a competent plumber. In-wall cisterns are becoming more popular. Choosing a trusted brand will ensure that spare parts can always be found.
An access panel is installed in the wall to allow maintenance of the higher quality in-wall systems. The flush buttons can also be held by this panel and can be easily removed. You don't need to cut any tiles in order to reach the cistern.
There are many benefits to having an in-wall toilet cistern in your bathroom
Cleaning is easier with in-wall cisterns than with close-coupled toilets. One-half of the toilet is located in the wall, so you only have one side of the toilet to clean. Because the plumbing and pipework are concealed, you have less dust to catch and fewer surfaces to clean. You don't even need to get rid of that annoying gap between the wall and the toilet.

A wall-faced pan is easier to clean than a floor-mounted one. It's easy to clean under the toilet with a wall-hung pan because the space is large enough to accommodate a mop and broom.
Because of their modern and stylish appearance, toilets with in-wall water cisterns offer space and style. These cisterns create a minimalist, sleek feel in the bathroom. The gap between the wall-hung models and the floor creates a feeling of more space. This is ideal for small bathrooms that need more ventilation.
Whisper quiet: Close-coupled toilets make quite a lot of noise during fill cycles. This is the sound the water makes when it reaches the pan and fills the toilet. In-wall cisterns are quieter. Most quality in-wall Cisterns fill at a maximum of 9 decibels. This is considered 'whisper quiet'.
You can make in-wall cisterns even quieter by installing them in a certain way. Usually, 6mm of fiber cement sheeting can be used for the wall. Then 10mm tiles are added to the tile over it. This creates up to 16mm sound insulation. This is an excellent benefit for light sleepers.
Innovative features: Many of the highest-end models feature electronic flushing systems that are hands-free. Simply wave your hand over the sensor button to flush the toilet automatically. This promotes better hygiene in the bathroom. Dual flushing is required for all in-wall systems in Australia. To do a full flush, simply wave your hand across the sensor button.
Another innovative feature is the LED lights that are mounted on the flushing plates. These lights are integrated into the flush buttons making it easy to locate the toilet without turning on the lights. This is a great advantage for guests and light sleepers.
These innovative features will increase the property's resale potential.
