Installation & Maintenance Instructions

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Tessera

TM

in-wall Toilet System uses siphonic action to
get the job done cleanly and effeciently with only 1.6 gal­lons per flush. The high density polyethylene tank is well
insulated to prevent condensation. The in-wall installation
system has three key advantages. First, the flush tank is in
the wall which minimizes noise levels. Second, the wall­hung bowl saves up to 9” of space compared to floor­mounted models. Finally, the toilet base is eliminated
making cleaning underneath quick and easy. The concea­led tank and carrier ship as a single unit, a fully factory
assembled fixture, ready for fast and easy installation.
