ADJUSTABLE FLUSHPIPE
Caroma’s adjustable flushpipe solves pan
installation issues where the finished floor
tiling has been laid higher than specified,
preventing the pan inlet from aligning
with the cistern flushpipe. It also allows
for the outlet centre to be adjusted to
the correct flushpipe height, without the
need to remove tiles, saving on significant
rectification costs and on-site time.
This adjustable flushpipe allows
plumbers to quickly realign the water inlet
without visible damage to bathroom walls.
Caroma’s adjustable flushpipe is the new
standard for all back inlet concealed Invisi
Series II suites at no extra cost.
