I'm trying to cheaply replace a basement bathroom's floor-mounted, wall-outlet toilet, but everywhere I ask tells me it is a special order that will cost upwards of $700 with a 4-6 week lead time. SO, in the interest of saving time and money, I'm considering switching to a commercial toilet with a flush valve (ie. no tank).
My question is: How hard is it to plumb in a flush valve toilet? Do I just have to reroute the water supply from the existing tank shut-off valve to where the flush valve requires it? Or is larger pipe needed?
Second question: There's a jog in the wall behind the toilet (ie. a shelf). Can you usually extend the piece of pipe that goes from the flush valve to the wall? Would that be a problem?
