I easily place WC basin
Before starting work, we will need to select a WC basin based on where the central sewer pipe is located.
There are different types of drainage: from the floor, from the wall, central hidden sewer, etc ...

The preparation
up
Ideally, we should pay attention and observe some dimensions in order to have the maximum possible space around the basin. The WC space should be at least 90 cm long and 1 m long. We have to provide 20 cm next to each side of the basin and 30 to 40 cm in front of the basin.
It is necessary to have a water supply pipe - usually a copper pipe with a diameter of 8/10 mm or 10/12 mm and a central sewer pipe from which the sewage will be removed.
Cut off the water supply, then unscrew and release the supply pipe connected to the cistern. Unscrew the screws that secure the basin to the floor. We remove the basin from the floor as well as the basin from the sewer pipe.
After removing the cistern and basin, clean the drain pipe to then install a new connector / fitting.
The placement of the basin
up
Place the basin temporarily on the holes in the floor.
We also place the sewer outlet inside the drain pipe. Care must be taken to ensure that the cistern is completely perpendicular to the wall. We also make sure that the basin is placed straight using the spirit level. If necessary, use a little putty to lift and straighten the pelvis. Remove the basin, drill holes if necessary, and place holes. Before screwing the screws, lift the basin and place it in the outlet pipe to the drain. Finally, we place the basin on the floor with the help of silicone.
1st way: Place the plastic casing on the drain pipe and tighten it tightly. It will ensure sealing.
2nd way: It is also possible to seal the pipe using flange (sealing tires), cement glue or mortar. Tighten the screws on the dowels. We place a plastic cap on the screw heads.

The installation of the cistern
up
Place the cistern on the basin and secure it with special screws, which are equipped with rubber sealing washers.
Tighten the nuts.
We install the mechanism of the cistern.
Connect the water supply and shut-off switch, located on the outside of the tank. We tighten the nut that connects the switch to the cold water supply by adding a flange for absolute waterproofing.
We place the lid and screw the button on the top of the cistern. We make sure that everything works properly.
We make sure that we firmly fasten the various strains together, but without breaking them too much: they are fragile objects and can break.
