This is bloody awesome!!! Thanks mate i now feel confident to change our old dunny to a nice new one… 🎉

Where the sewer pipe comes up from out of the ground, did you just shorten it with an angle grinder or something or does that protruding bit just pop off? Thanks.

Great instruction. I would have liked to see how the second screw fitting inside the tank was screwed in, I had to make a tool from conduit with a slot in the end to turn those fittings.

How is the toilet anchored to the floor ?

[rtjap]

nice work guys, done a lot of DIY and this was great.

[ashizor]

Any video of the pan that goes straight to the wall instead of floor?
Also what is the last 40mm when your doing your measurements from the wall? Thanks a very helpful video 🙂

This is getting better, men - I hope you get Bunning Sponsor.

I wish u guys are near me in Wollongong this looks simple enough but knowing me the dunny would leak sh** everywhere 😂

What stops the porcelain to tile contact, which would either crack/chip tiles or porcelain pan, as well as making that awfull grinding noise ?
What secures the pan to the floor solidly now ?
Looks like the old pan used mortar to secure it to the floor before by the looks of that bare patch of tiles.

Very helpful thanks, I also enjoyed the terrrible puns!

[paulcarpenter]

Bloody brilliant !!!
I have had a new cistern & bowl combo the same as yours, sitting on the back veranda for yonks, waiting to find out if I can swap from an 's' trap to a 'p' trap...
Did not know that you can get that certain fitting you used...
Can that fitting be bought from Bunnings or do I need to go to a specialty plumbing mob ?
Okay... guess what I am doing tomorrow...
lol...

[peterRobinson]

great and simple instructions! awesome. Can i add multiple toilets to the one main toilet pipe outlet? like where the pipe pops outside rhe house wall to the backyard, can i pop another one (outside) on the toilet sewer pipe?

[ainanott]

What's the name and brand of that new toilet? We r looking for something similar. Thanks for the tips

[lukeshep]

Did you fix the threaded bar bracket to the wall or just let it push up against it?

[stevey]

Can you show me how to replace a left skew strap toilet, a old school one with a water tank high above?

[mechanicalman]

so the only thing holding to toilet to the ground was a bead of silicone ? what happen if your doing a major big poo and you move around a bit. wont the toilet move ?

Hi Kent, do you know how to reset network NX12 security system? 🙏🙏🙏

[danielrobertbush]

Where did the 40mm come from in the measurement from the wall?

[SW-gljy]

Nice vid!
how did you remove the old pan collar assembly that was on the floor? Did you have to cut it off with the angle grinder?
And I noticed that you didn't replace it, and just pushed the new S trap into the floor.
