Understanding Concealed Cisterns & Frames
Concealed cisterns and frames are a brilliant choice for achieving a clean, contemporary look in any modern bathroom. By neatly hiding the cistern (the water tank used for flushing) and pipework within the wall or a furniture unit, this setup leaves only the flush plate on show—creating a sleek, minimalist aesthetic that’s both stylish and space-saving.
Take, for example, a wall-hung toilet: the pan is mounted directly onto the wall, while the cistern and supporting frame are completely concealed behind it. This not only creates a striking floating effect but also makes everyday cleaning far simpler, as there are no exposed pipes or bulky fixtures in the way.
Beyond aesthetics, these systems offer practical advantages too. They maximise floor space, improve hygiene by making cleaning more efficient, and ensure long-lasting support for wall-hung toilets. Most designs also include water-saving dual flush technology, making them a smart, eco-conscious addition to your bathroom.
Whether you're creating a luxurious en-suite or updating a compact space, these systems provide the perfect blend of form and function—elevating the overall feel of your bathroom with ease.
