At present I have a hot and cold feed and waste pipe in position, running parallel about 2" off the floor and bracketed to the wall. I reckon to use 90 deg elbows to bring the water pipes up a couple of feet, then elbow wm valves. Are brackets likely to give enough room to fit the hoses easily, or should I angle them out slightly? Maybe there's another approach. The existing waste pipe is solvent welded to the soil pipe outside so I can't change the height of exit but, as it stands, there won't be room for a trap that you could undo easily. (It was previously connected to a bath where the trap was partly sunk in the solid floor. Really useful!) My plan is to maybe use a flexible universal compression waste pipe to raise the height and convert to the compression system, and then a standard wm trap. Don't know how much height I could gain this way. All at sea with plumbing so any advice appreciated.
