vratenza 0 Report post Posted January 5, 2011 Yes, YY told me that its possible changing the WC to 'P'-trap =) based on my reno experience, when ur ID tell u can change from S to P trap, that only answer the question if you can do a concealed cistern. At the end of the day your waste trap will still be in it's original position, just a matter of how your ID is going to channel the waste from the new position to the original waste trap hole. Not impossible but you will not like the amount of space you will be wasting. Don't waste your time and energy pondering which design is better until you clarify with your ID.

I will upload my quotation later , its with my husband now We havent confirm our master room toilet, which do you all think is better?? A B Nice 3-D design! I guess B is better, it will save some problems in the future as it does not need to change the position of the WC, that is my thinking....

Janelle, has a relatively spacious toliet, with about 2000 to play, she can afford a shower (700), basin (600) wc (500) provided that she's reconfiguring wc to P-trap. Let her check with her ID as what vratenza suggests, is it worth the reconfiguration. Janelle, do you have any pic of your mbr toliet? wonder if there's any pipes around the area?
