The Toilet Buying Guide
The key to any bathroom is functionality. When creating a new bathroom, it’s helpful to consider both the style and function of your toilet, whether you prefer traditional designs, such as a high-level toilet, or a technologically advanced toilet from the likes of TOTO or Duravit. Within C.P. Hart’s toilet range, you will find every type of WC, including back-to-wall toilets, close-coupled toilets, and wall-mounted toilets.
Embarking on a new bathroom project is always an exciting experience. Whether it’s a minor update or a complete renovation, we believe in the importance of understanding how your bathroom works in order to optimise your space fully. In this toilet buying guide, we will explore each different toilet style that C.P. Hart offers, as well as share some tips on what to consider when finding the best toilet for your home.

SHOP BACK-TO-WALL TOILETS
Back-To-Wall Toilets
A back-to-wall toilet is often first choice for those seeking a modern bathroom design. The pan sits on the floor, flush to the wall, with the cistern hidden behind the wall, usually by a partition wall or with a furniture unit that harmonises with the bathroom’s interior scheme. You would opt for a back-to-wall toilet due to its sleek and contemporary appearance – please do check whether the cistern comes with the toilet pan or whether it needs to be purchased separately.
C.P. Hart offers an extensive back-to-wall toilet range, showcasing products from our own exclusive collections, as well as styles from world-renowned manufacturers and suppliers; our ranges cater to all those who wish to buy a toilet for their updated bathroom. Explore our designer toilets from the Duravit Happy D.2 pan to the Cielo Shui back-to-wall pan, available in various finishes including Glossy White and Glossy Black as well as soft, matt tones such as Cielo’s Arenaria.

SHOP CLOSE-COUPLED TOILETS
Close-Coupled Toilets
Unlike a back-to-wall toilet, the cistern of a close-coupled toilet is visible, usually placed directly on top of the toilet pan. A close-coupled toilet will suit most bathroom styles due to its universal design. For a classical bathroom scheme, our exclusive London collection offers traditionally designed, close-coupled toilets in White Ceramic, Black, Blue, and Slate finishes. For those who prefer a more modern take on bathroom design, look to Duravit’s ME by Starck close-coupled pan.
A close-coupled toilet offers diverse flush mechanisms; you could choose a traditional handle, a flush plate, or a cistern with a built-in flush button, such as those from Duravit’s White Tulip range.

SHOP WALL-MOUNTED TOILETS
Wall-Mounted Toilets
A wall-mounted toilet is considered the most modern toilet design, suspended from the wall and mounted on a concealed frame. Set above the floor, a wall-hung pan allows bathroom tiling to be fitted flush to the wall, creating the feel of a larger floor space. This design detail is particularly beneficial in smaller bathrooms, cloakrooms, and en-suites.
At C.P. Hart, you will find many wall-hung toilets, including those from our exclusive Kali and Henley ranges, as well as options from Cielo, Duravit, Gessi and TOTO. Geberit, a leading manufacturer of sanitaryware and sanitary technology, is best known for its Duofix Frames, innovatively designed with built-in cisterns for an effortless installation.

High-Level Toilets
High-level toilets are best suited to traditional bathroom designs, characterised by a cistern mounted high up the wall with a long flush pipe connecting it to the pan. Typically, high-level toilets are complete with a chain pull flush, a design feature that truly sets the tone for a classical bathroom scheme. Our exclusive London and Henley collections feature beautiful high-level toilets, available in White, Black, Moseley blue, and Stoneywell Slate.

Low-Level Toilets
Low-level toilets are much like high-level toilets in design, the main difference being that the cistern is set far lower down the wall. You will often find a flush handle on a low-level toilet, adding to its classical appeal. Again, look to our exclusive London and Henley ranges for traditional low-level WCs, complete with your choice of White, Black, Natural Oak, and Mahogany soft-close toilet seats.

SHOP SPACE-SAVING TOILETS
Space-Saving Toilets
In smaller bathrooms, en-suites, and cloakrooms, space-saving toilets do well to give the illusion of a larger room. Wall-mounted and back-to-wall pans are excellent for freeing floor space, as the cistern is hidden behind the wall for a cleaner, more uncluttered aesthetic.
Our space-saving toilets are available in a breadth of designs and finishes. The Kali Rimless Compact Wall-Mounted Pan, for example, features a slim, soft-close toilet seat option for a sleeker appearance, available in Gloss White or Matt White to match the pan.
