Commodes in Pakistan: One-Piece, Two-Piece and Wall-Hung Types, Traps, Flush Systems and Prices
Commodes are the most used fixtures in the house, so the right choice saves repairs, water and cleaning time, and a good one lasts for decades. The main decisions are the type, the trap and the flush system, and then the seat and the fixing. Getting the waste position wrong is the costliest mistake, because it cannot be fixed after tiling. This guide covers types, traps, flush systems, sizes, rough-in and indicative prices. For toilets in general, see toilets.
Types of commode
Choose by space and budget.
| Type | Strengths | Note |
|---|---|---|
| One-piece | Seamless, easy to clean | Costs more, heavier |
| Two-piece | Economical, easy to replace parts | Joint between tank and bowl |
| Wall-hung | Frees floor, modern | Needs frame and strong wall |
| Close-coupled | Tank directly on bowl | Most common |
| Floor-standing with concealed tank | Clean look | Needs wall cavity |
S trap and P trap
An S trap sends waste through the floor, and a P trap sends it through the wall. Check the waste position before buying, since the trap must match the drainage.
Flush systems
Single, dual and concealed systems differ in water use. See commode flush for choices and repair.
Sizes and rough-in
Measure the distance from the finished wall to the waste centre, called the rough-in, before the floor is tiled, because a wrong waste position cannot be fixed afterwards without breaking the floor. Standard bowls need clearance of about 15 inches from the centre to side walls.
