What is the standard size for a toilet cistern?

Most high level cisterns are on average 455 mm wide, 350 mm high, and project 230 mm from the wall.

Can you put a new cistern on an old toilet?

The short answer is yes. You will simply need to uninstall your old cistern and replace it with the new cistern.

Do back-to-wall toilets come with cisterns?

The toilet pan is distinct from the rest of the toilet in a back-to-wall toilet and is typically purchased separately. A close-coupled toilet, however, usually includes the pan and cistern as a single unit as a full toilet suite .

Cisterns

- Toilet cisterns are a vital part of your toilet suite and play a key role in how it functions. Cisterns are the part of a toilet that holds the water that is used to flush the toilet and can be made from a variety of materials, including porcelain or plastic. While they are highly functional, they can also be quite stylish and ArchiPro features some great choices for cisterns from leading suppliers in Australia.

ArchiPro Products

ArchiPro offers a diverse selection of high-quality cisterns, toilet supplies and accessories. With a strong emphasis on quality, each product featured has been carefully hand-picked from leading suppliers across Australia. From options such as inwall, underground, and close coupled cisterns, you’ll find the

Inwall cisterns

This is the most common type of cistern. It is installed inside your wall, so it doesn’t require any extra work on your part.

Underground cisterns

Underground cisterns are essentially the same as inwall cisterns except that they're buried underground instead of being installed inside a wall.

Close coupled cisterns

This type of cistern is designed for areas where space is limited or where it isn't possible to install an inwall or underground cistern. It's connected directly to the house's plumbing system, so there's no need for any additional installation work beyond connecting it up with the existing plumbing system.

The advantages of high-quality cisterns

High-quality cisterns have many advantages that make them well worth the investment. They are more durable so they last longer and they are easier to maintain and clean, keeping your flush water looking fresh. They are also more resistant to rust, so you won't have to worry about damage from water stains or rust spots from interior components.

How to choose a cistern that’s right for you

When it comes to choosing a cistern in Australia, you'll want to make sure that it's the right fit for your needs. Size is important in terms of both flushing capacity and the amount of space it takes up in your bathroom. Cisterns also come in a wide variety of materials including plastic and steel; each has its own advantages and disadvantages. Matching it to your toilet suite is important for style aspects as it should also complement other parts like the toilet seat and toilet pan.
