Concealed Cisterns & Frames

Bathrooms are a space that exudes modern elegance and streamlined design. This vision becomes a reality with Jaquar's innovative range of concealed cisterns and frames

What is a Concealed Cistern?

A concealed cistern, also known as a concealed cistern toilet or a hidden cistern toilet, is a space-saving solution. The cistern, traditionally visible behind a toilet, is cleverly tucked away within the wall cavity. Only the sleek flush plates remain visible, creating a minimalist aesthetic and maximising floor space. This makes them ideal for compact bathrooms and expansive ensuites, providing a sense of clean lines and uncluttered luxury.

Types of Concealed Cisterns:

Jaquar offers two primary types of concealed cisterns - mechanical and pneumatic.

01

Mechanical Concealed Cisterns

These cisterns utilise a traditional push-button flushing mechanism. Jaquar's mechanical cisterns, like the JCS-WHT-2400FS Single Piece Slim In-wall Cistern, are known for their reliability and ease of use.

02

Pneumatic Concealed Cisterns

This WC Concealed cistern features a pressurised air system for silent and efficient flushing. For instance, the APC-WHT-5012500FSAF Pneumatic Single Piece Slim In-wall Cistern has an auto-flushing system for added convenience.

Features of Concealed Cistern

There are several compelling reasons to choose a concealed cistern for your bathroom design:

  • Enhanced Aesthetics: Concealed cisterns create a visually clean and modern look. The absence of an exposed cistern minimises clutter and allows the beauty of your chosen wall tiles and sanitaryware to take centre stage.
  • Space Optimization: Especially in smaller bathrooms, every inch counts. Concealed cisterns free up valuable floor space, making the bathroom more open and airy.
  • Easy Maintenance: Since the cistern is hidden behind the wall, cleaning your bathroom becomes a breeze.
  • Durability and Performance: Jaquar's concealed cisterns are made of high-quality materials, ensuring long-lasting performance. They are built to withstand daily use and come backed by Jaquar's industry-leading warranty of up to 7 years.
