Wall Hung Toilets

Modernise your bathroom with a wall-hung toilet that combines minimalist design with practical performance. Popular in high-end Irish renovations, floating toilets create a more spacious look by exposing more floor area, making them ideal for smaller bathrooms and en-suites. 

At Deluxe Bathrooms, every wall-hung toilet is selected for durability, easy maintenance, and compatibility with Irish plumbing systems, delivering a clean, contemporary finish built for everyday use.

Why Choose a Floating Toilet for Your Renovation?

The primary appeal of a floating toilet is the visual space it saves. Because the cistern is hidden behind a stud wall, the only visible elements are the bowl and the flush plate. This creates a streamlined silhouette that fits perfectly into contemporary designs. Beyond the aesthetics, these toilets are incredibly hygienic. Without a base or pedestal sitting on the floor, there are no awkward corners where dust and grime can collect. You can mop directly underneath the bowl, keeping your bathroom tiles spotless with minimal effort. 

Expert Tips for Installations

1. Check Your Wall Depth: Most frames require a depth of about 150mm to 200mm. If your wall is thinner, we have "slimline" frames designed for tighter cavities.
2. Floor Strength: Ensure the floor can support the weight of the frame and the user. Concrete floors are ideal, but reinforced timber joists work perfectly well too.
3. Waste Outlet: Wall-hung systems typically use a horizontal waste outlet. If your current waste pipe goes straight into the floor, you may need a flexible connector or a slight plumbing adjustment.

FAQs About Wall-Hung Toilets

How much weight can a wall-hung toilet hold? 

When installed correctly with a professional wall-hung toilet frame, these systems are rated to hold approximately 400kg (about 63 stone). They are incredibly secure and do not flex or move.

Does a wall-hung toilet include the frame and cistern?

Some wall-hung toilets are sold as complete sets, while others require the toilet frame, concealed cistern, and flush plate to be purchased separately. Always check the product description to confirm what is included before ordering.

Can I install a floating toilet on a stud wall? 

Yes, but the frame must be secured to the timber studs and the floor. For extra stability, we often recommend "noggins" (extra timber supports) between the studs where the frame will sit.

Can wall-hung toilets be installed at different heights?

Yes. Unlike standard floor-mounted toilets, wall-hung toilets can often be installed at a customised height to improve comfort and accessibility. This makes them popular in modern family bathrooms, accessible bathrooms, and contemporary renovations.

Is it hard to repair a concealed cistern? 

Not at all. Access to the internal valves is gained simply by popping off the flush plate. You don't need to break any tiles to perform basic maintenance or replace a flush valve.

Do wall-hung toilets save space?

Yes. The cistern is hidden inside the wall, so you lose the bulky tank and gain a more streamlined layout. Because the bowl “floats” above the floor, you also see more floor area. That visual trick makes small bathrooms and en-suites feel bigger, plus you get more access to room for cleaning.

Are wall-hung toilets easy to clean?

Yes. With no pedestal touching the floor, there aren’t any awkward nooks for dust, hair, or grime to build up. You can mop or wipe straight underneath the bowl in seconds. Less scrubbing, better hygiene, especially handy in busy family bathrooms.
