When it comes to wax toilet gaskets, you have two options: an old-fashioned solid wax ring like this one, or a wax ring formed around a funnel-shaped guide that may or may not include a sponge ring, allowing the manufacturer to use less wax while still providing the thickness required to fill the gap between the toilet and the floor flange. When there isn't enough space between the toilet and the plastic part, it becomes an impediment to seating the toilet low enough to reach the floor. The toilet is centered over the down pipe and flange with the help of this funnel-shaped "guide. " In theory, it's a great idea. However, depending on the flange height, it may not always work. To save the day, you'll need an "old school" solid wax gasket. When you place the toilet over the flange, you must center it; otherwise, it will squish flatter until it reaches the floor. Your plumber may have cut the down pipe too long if it still hits the flange. When they think you're going to lay ceramic tile on the floor before installing the toilet, they'll do that. In this case, a tall mounting flange is ideal. However, if you use vinyl instead of carpet and the flange is significantly higher than the floor, you may need to cut a "shim" board to fit around the flange and under the toilet. There's going to be some fancy cutting going on there. The edge of the board can be covered with some skillful caulking, but regardless of your situation, the solid wax gasket is most likely the best option for getting the job done without having to stop. Best wishes to you.
hand IMO. I believe that every homeowner (and renter) who fixes their own problems, such as changing light bulbs, is a good person. On-demand lighting (bulb replacement, lubricating door hinges and locks, and so on) should be available. a regular-sized one extra-large wax gasket for the toilet and one extra-large wax gasket for the toilet Just in case, get a tall/thick toilet wax gasket, because the toilet will eventually leak around the bottom, and the problem won't go away unless it's fixed properly. (Now that I think about it, Teflon tape is also required. ) ) It's not the most pleasant job, but it's relatively quick to shut off, drain, dry, disassemble, and remove an entire toilet from the floor, clean off the old wax ring and remnants from the floor and the toilet bottom, throw in a new ring like this, and then replace- It's not the most pleasant job, but it's relatively quick to shut off, drain, dry, disassemble, and remove an entire toilet from the floor, clean off the old wax ring and remnant and re-assembly of the toilet, as well as a test run An hour later, plus a shower to forget about what you just went through, and you've solved a problem that wasn't going away on its own.
It worked perfectly, and my shitter is now up and running again. Noice.
This wasn't an option because my toilet was a special size. The manufacturer had to make one just for me. This, however, is a well-written piece. Would probably work in 99% of applications. Would probably work in 99% of applications. Would probably work in 99% of applications. Would probably work.
I'm at a loss for words. Organize your workspace: the ring should be placed; Place the toilet in its proper position by rocking it back and forth. Tighten the bolts alternately until they are completely tight. That concludes our discussion.
