Hi guys after a bit of advice ....

An old close coupled pan will be replaced with a new close coupled pan.

With the waste line been quite far from the wall, the old one was attached to the waste using a really long flexi pan connector , bent at an awkward angle backwards then up through the floor and bent again onto the pan. I have attached an image of the old pan connector.
Any ideas on how to get closer back to the wall , without using a Flexi, I have sat a mcalpine Flexi in at the moment which is the longest one they do which wouldn't be long enough anyways to bend back then up through the floor then bend back forward the the back of the pan.

I don't want to build the wall out really what would be my best option .

Regards
Peter

Personally I’d use a McAlpine dc1-bl, x2 45 degree spigot elbows to offset, or at least 1 spigot one, and some pieces of soil pipe.
Thank you for the reply !
So drain connector straight into the pipe. Then 2 45s to bring it back closer to the wall, will these be okay I have attached the image ! Many thanks

Yes, at least one of those and a normal 45, or two of those, depends how much is needed, can’t work out the angle from photos. Also then use a 90 degree pan connector once rejigged the soil.
