Geberit wall-hung wc confusion

[finito]

Hi all,

 

I’m trying to decide which Geberit frame (and cistern) to use inside a partition wall. There are so many models, and I’m not sure what criteria are most important.

Because I want to keep the partition wall as thin as possible, I found a “slim” frame with a concealed cistern depth of 8 cm (the Geberit Duofix 114 cm frame with Sigma 8 cm cistern). You can see the spec here: Geberit Duofix 114 cm with Sigma 8 cm concealed cistern. (https://catalog.geberit.co.uk/en-GB/product/PRO_3933453)

 

I’m wondering:

 

1. Would you recommend that slim 8 cm frame over a more “standard” one? Are there trade‑offs beyond cistern thickness (e.g. strength, maintenance, robustness, noise, flush performance)?
2. Are these frames (especially slim ones) compatible with “smart toilets” (i.e. electrical / washlet / bidet-toilet combos)? Or do they require a special conduit or extra provision for the power / signal lines?

 

Thanks in advance for your help.

I was in the same position as you. We had restricted space so had to use this product. Its in the wall now and wiring in for electronic flush and shower toilet - both still to be fitted. I spent hours checking instructions and with the excellent Geberit tech guys who steered my through everything. This should work as you intend although G had to send me a small but of flexi hose to make everything work as the electronic flush made things more complex

Thanks for your quick response, it's much appreciated. Would you mind sharing the store where you got it from? Was it supplied directly by geberit?

 

I guess the only real difference between this frame and the other one is just the cistern size, one bigger being bigger, everything else should be same.

 

Thanks
