I easily install a built-in cistern

The installation of a hanging basin in combination with a built-in cistern offers flexibility and comfort in the organization of the bathroom.

The cistern is not visible except for the control panel, its operation is done quietly and in combination with the hanging basin there is ease of cleaning, a sense of spaciousness and modern aesthetics.

Step by step

The preparation of the placement

up

We calculate the installation height of the support frame, according to the required installation height of the hanging basin (40 cm) and mark it on the wall.

We draw and draw with a pencil a horizontal line on the wall at the selected height.

The installation of the cistern

up

We adjust the height of the frame by guiding the horizontal line and the spirit level, varying the distance of the frame from its feet. We tighten the side screws to stabilize the frame to the desired height on its legs.

We note through the foot holes the position of the corresponding holes in the floor, having previously made sure that no pipes pass through the positions of the holes in the floor. With the drill we drill holes in the floor, in the appropriate places. We must place the appropriate plugs (holes) in the holes.


Attach the footrests to the floor with screws. We drill holes in the wall and place plugs in the holes, having previously made sure that no pipes pass through the holes in the wall. Fasten the frame to the wall with screws.


Screw the basin mounting cables to the corresponding positions. We connect the cistern to the water supply by inserting a flexible spiral pipe.

We form with plastic pipes the connection of the drainage of the basin with the waiting of the central drainage in the bathroom.


We attach the cistern by fixing the metal frame of the plasterboard lining and by screwing the plasterboard to the frame. In the drywall we note the positions of the control panel, the water supply and sewerage of the basin-cistern system and the basin support discs.

We open holes of the same size in the drywall with glass drill and jigsaw. Screw the drywall to the metal frame and grout its joints. Then we can line the drywall with wall tiles.

The placement of the basin

up
We connect the basin with the introduction of water from the cistern and the formed drain with a plastic pipe to the plastic pipe of the stand. The joints are glued with a special glue.


We hang the basin on the support cables and level it. Attach the alphanumed basin to the cables by tightening the nuts.

Assemble the mechanism of the board and finally place the lid of the basin.
