Wall Mount Toilet question

[Maemer]

adding an addition onto house...want to make an ADA bathroom...want wall mount vanity and toilet...but if the toilet is mounted to the wall, where is the tank?

There are types with the tank mounted atop the bowl, like a "traditional" toilet, and others with the tank concealed in the wall. I'm not sure of the ADA compliance of the concealed tank models due to the location of the flush actuator.

I know about the two types...I know how to lift tank lid and work on the "traditional" one, but how in the world do you work on the one that Isn't the traditional one? Where is the tank? Can I get to the tank? I don't understand.
Thanks

The tank is inside the wall. Since I've never had to deal with one, my assumption is that you would install an access panel to the tank in the room that shares the wall in the bathroom concealing the toilet apparatus. Modern plumbing installations have an access panel to allow you to get to the concealed workings of your tub and/or shower faucet. I think the concept is probably the same.

One of the pros will likely see this and hopefully will give you a more definitive answer.
