Hi,
I want to use a wall mounted WC, but I also want to use a "high tank". Goals are to use a wall mounted bowl -- for easy floor cleaning -- and a high tank -- just for the period look. I just don't trust tanks mounted inside the wall.
90% of all wall mounted bowls accept flush water from their back side, i.e. the side against the wall. I'm convinced I can craft the plumbing (albeit not easily) to feed a high tank into one of those bowls and make it work. I mean the bowl already expects gravity feed water from a tank, so it's just a lot of custom pipe fitting.
10% of wall mounted bowls have top mounted spud. However, all are illustrated using a "Flushometer" to feed water instead of a tank.
Any thoughts on whether I can just dump the water from a high tank into the top spud of one of those bowels and have it flush? Grin ... A high tank's higher water pressure at toilet level left a vision of Old Faithful.
