I'm lining up my ducks to swap the toilet and basin in our en-suite which is a job I've never carried out before.
The existing pan connector which is now connected to the toilet, is this something that will come off ok and can be reused? Or should I just get a new connector for the new toilet?
Thanks!
Only in England do they use pans beneath their toilets. (I hope they wash 'em afterward.)
Yes, get a new connector. The rubber seal goes hard with age, and forms to the shape of the old pan, so in most cases it will not seal correctly with a new pan. Alan.

For the sake of a couple of pounds and a load of grief from the old connector a new one is a must.

Check what is available - I bought one and when I got it home I realised I needed a "Compact" one - a bit like a gooseneck.
I would suggest buying a new one, but finding one the right size may be more of a challenge.
