Setup and Installation
Installation of a wall-mounted toilet requires specific plumbing knowledge and tools. If you are not experienced with such installations, it is strongly recommended to hire a certified professional.
Required Tools and Materials (Not Included):
- In-wall tank/carrier system (compatible with wall-mounted toilets)
- Toilet seat and cover
- Sealant (silicone)
- Measuring tape, level, pencil
- Wrenches, screwdrivers
Installation Steps:
- Prepare the In-Wall Carrier: Install the in-wall tank/carrier system according to its manufacturer's instructions. Ensure it is securely fastened to the wall studs and leveled correctly. Connect the water supply and waste pipe to the carrier.
- Measure and Mark: Using the provided technical drawing and the carrier system's specifications, measure and mark the positions for the mounting bolts and the waste/supply connections on the wall.
- Attach Mounting Rods: Secure the threaded mounting rods from the in-wall carrier system.
- Connect Waste and Supply: Attach the waste outlet and water supply pipes from the toilet bowl to the corresponding connections on the in-wall carrier. Ensure all seals are correctly seated.
- Mount the Toilet Bowl: Carefully slide the toilet bowl onto the threaded mounting rods. The Durafix system facilitates a secure and concealed fastening. Tighten the nuts evenly until the toilet is firmly against the wall, but do not overtighten to avoid cracking the ceramic.
- Seal the Gaps: Apply a bead of silicone sealant around the perimeter where the toilet meets the finished wall. This provides a watertight seal and a clean finish. Allow the sealant to cure completely before use.
- Install Toilet Seat: Attach your chosen toilet seat and cover according to its manufacturer's instructions.
- Test Flush: Turn on the main water supply, allow the tank to fill, and perform several test flushes to check for leaks and proper operation.

Operating Instructions
The Duravit Happy D.2 toilet utilizes a washdown flushing system, designed for efficient waste removal.
- Flushing: To flush the toilet, activate the flush plate or button associated with your in-wall tank system. This model supports a dual flush mechanism, allowing you to choose between a full flush for solid waste and a partial flush for liquid waste, conserving water.
- Rimless Design: The rimless design ensures water is distributed evenly around the bowl for a thorough rinse, while also making cleaning easier.
Maintenance
Regular cleaning and proper care will maintain the appearance and functionality of your Duravit toilet.
Cleaning the Toilet Bowl:
- Use a soft cloth or sponge with a mild, non-abrasive bathroom cleaner.
- Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, or cleaners containing strong acids, alkalis, or bleach, as these can damage the ceramic glaze.
- For stubborn stains, allow the cleaner to sit for a short period before scrubbing gently.
- Rinse thoroughly with clean water after cleaning.
General Care:
- Periodically check all connections for leaks. Tighten if necessary, but do not overtighten.
- Ensure the toilet seat is properly aligned and secured.
Troubleshooting
Below are common issues and potential solutions. For complex problems, consult a professional plumber.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Weak Flush | Low water level in tank, partially closed water supply valve, clogged rim jets (unlikely with rimless design but check for blockages). | Adjust water level in the in-wall tank, fully open the water supply valve, inspect for blockages. |
| Toilet Leaks | Loose connections, faulty seals, cracked ceramic. | Check and tighten all water connections. Inspect seals and replace if worn. If ceramic is cracked, the unit may need replacement. |
| Toilet Clogs Easily | Excessive waste, non-flushable items, partial blockage in drain pipe. | Use a plunger. Avoid flushing non-biodegradable items. If persistent, a plumber may need to clear the drain line. |
| Toilet Rocks/Moves | Loose mounting bolts, improper installation of in-wall carrier. | Ensure mounting bolts are securely tightened. If the in-wall carrier is unstable, professional re-installation may be required. |
