It seems that this forum has lots of discussions about toilets to fit small spaces. I want to thank you all for the advice so far....but I think I am looking for something new.
As many others, I have an old house with small bathroom spaces. One bathroom was clearly a converted coat closet, with very little knee room.
Rather than trying to find a very compact close coupled toilet, I started wondering if I could somehow move the tank to a more convenient location, and move the bowl back toward the wall.
I was wondering if I could somehow use a 'spud toilet' and put the tank off to the side and high up.
For example, using something like https://s3.amazonaws.com/gerber-gh/579a4f24818af64912fbbb79/25-642-30.pdf it would seem that if I could arrange the water supply piping correctly, and deal with what would become a 6" rough, I could end up with 21" of extension from the wall.
I know that there are wall mount toilets available, with the tank and plumbing hidden in the wall; this would be a bad idea for me since this is an outside wall (freezing).
What I would really like to find is a 'back to wall' bowl with a spud connection for the tank and a standard 12" rough.
Does such a beastie exist?
Many thanks
Jon
