When designing or renovating your bathroom, the toilet tank is often overlooked—but it plays a vital role in both functionality and aesthetics. Whether you’re replacing an old unit or installing a new system, choosing the right tank can improve water efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and elevate your bathroom’s style. In this guide, we’ll detail all the information you need to know to choose the perfect toilet tank for your home.

Types of Toilet Tanks

Understanding the different types of toilet tanks will help you make an informed decision:

1. Glass Cabinet Tanks

- The tank sits directly against the wall like a cabinet.

- Explosion-proof glass panels add beauty and luxury

2. Concealed (wall-mounted) Cistern

- Hidden behind a wall or inside furniture for a minimalist look.

- Save floor space and simplify cleaning.

3. In-vanity Cistern

- The tank body is installed inside a cabinet.

- Can hold both the tank and daily necessities.

Key factors to consider

1. Compatibility with your toilet

Not all toilet cisterns fit every toilet. Check:

- The shape and size of the toilet.

- The mounting mechanism of the cisterns (e.g. bolt locations, pipe connections).

- Whether you need a back-to-wall or close-coupled design.

2. Water efficiency

Look for a cisterns with the following features:

- Dual flush technology: uses 3-6 litres of water per flush.

- WELS rating: higher star ratings indicate better water efficiency.

- Smart sensors (premium models) prevent leaks and overflows.

3. Materials and durability

- Ceramic: classic, durable, easy to clean but heavy.

- High-density polyethylene (HDPE): known for crack and leak resistance.

- Stainless steel: industrial aesthetic, often used in commercial or heavy-duty environments, offers strong performance

4. Easy maintenance

- Choose a cisterns with removable lids and replaceable parts.

- Anti-scale coating reduces mineral accumulation in hard water areas.
