Chaddy GDPR opt-out	Pan connector Aug 6^th, 2006, 9:15am Hi guys taking out a low level cistern and pan. The soil pipe in the floor is clay, can you get a pan connector or adaptor to fit inside the clay pipe and allow a std pan connector to be fitted?? Thanks in advance Chaddy

I assume the clay pipe is vertical? How about removing the rubber gasket and silicone sealing the Multiquick into the DRY clay pipe?
