Soil Pipe Direction:
This details which direction the soil pipe can run from the rear of the toilet.

Horizontal: the soil pipe can run directly into the wall behind the pan.

Vertical: the soil pipe can turn 90 degrees and run vertically into the floor.

Left or Right: the soil pipe can run either side from the rear of the pan, which is then typically boxed in.

This is for guidance only and not intended as a substitute for visual/physical checks; the size and type of your pan connector/pipework will have an impact on whether or not there is sufficient clearance.

Water Inlet Location:

This is the location where the mains water feed can connect to the cistern, when viewed from the front.
Cisterns that feature Bottom Left & Right inlets are usually supplied with a plug to seal the inlet which isn't used.

Minimum Water Pressure

Your water pressure depends on your home's water system. It’s important to consider water pressure when buying a new tap or shower. Buying a product with a minimum water pressure that’s too high for your home will result in poor performance.

- With a combi boiler you can usually expect between 1 and 2 bar

- With a gravity system (cold water tank in attic) you may have as little as 0.1 or 0.2 bar upstairs, and perhaps 0.5 bar downstairs

- With a high pressure unvented system (hot water cylinder, no cold water tank) you will generally have between 1 and 3 bar

You can install an item with a low minimum pressure rating on a high pressure system, but avoid installing an item with a high minimum rating on a low pressure system! Read our guide to water pressure to learn more.

This tells you how many holes there are on the sink to mount your kitchen tap.

For sinks with a reversible drainer (one that can be on the left or right) the pre-drilled or pre-scored tap holes will be on both sides of the sink.

For sinks with a handed drainer, the pre-drilled or pre-scored tap holes will only be on one side of the sink.
