I am about to fit a new close coupled WC and cistern and could use some help. Problem is that the old wc had a flush pipe in to the pan and because the one I am replacing it with is close-coupled I will need to cut the old cast pipe back quite a bit. What is the easiest way to do this? Should I just attack it with a hacksaw or is there an easier way. Also the cast pipe has a large flange on the end, does it matter that this will be gone when I come to fit the new wc? Sorry if this is obvious to you guys but a bit scared to cut the b____r off and then find I need the flange. Regards, Jim.
