I believe that I read something in here earlier about this issue, although I'm not sure if it applies exactly to my situation.

My main soil stack is abs. The toilet soil pipe is in question feeds...

Thanks Terry and WJ:

After reading your recent posts (and re-reading the posts of others) I am going to leave the flange as is. I certainly do not want to create more problems with additional...

Terry and WJ:

Thanks again for the input. As an update, the extra box of tile has just come in so installation resumes on 10/22/12.

I took the liberty of going on the Sioux Chief website and...

Thanks for the reply Terry (and to ALL).

The flange installed is the Sioux Chief TKO (3" I believe), and the top of the flange sits slightly higher than the soon-to-be-finished tile floor.

Old ABS pipe and flange were removed, new PVC pipes from flange down through floor, angled to main stack.

We purchased a Toto Ultramax II toilet for an existing powder room which we are renovating. The installer put 1/2" plywood and 1/2" cement board above the 3/4" planks original sub-floor. Tile is...

Terry:

I believe that the 21" forward clearance rule will not apply in my twp if I am only replacing an existing fixture. (I spoke with someone from twp) With that in mind, I was wondering if it...

Terry:

Thank you for replying so quickly. Is that picture an actual installation?

My concern is whether this toilet will fail a code regulation.

Is the 21 inch clearance in front of the...

Background: I live in lower southampton twp , PA, and I'm redoing my small powder room (54" wide by 48" deep) in our new home. Once the walls are finished with tile, the distance between the walls in...

Thank you for the responses. With the newly tiled walls, the center of the flange will be 14 3/4" from the left side wall.

Since the Umax II is approximately 16 1/2" wide, the center of the tank...

Greetings:

We are re-doing our small first floor powder room and have decided on the Toto Ultramax II toilet. The powder room is 4 feet deep as you enter, and 4.5 feet wide. The toilet will set in...

Tom Sawyer: Although I respect your opinion, could you be more specific as to why you do not like either brand or type of boiler?
Thank you. Greyhound1

Greetings: I am a residential homeowner and I intend to update my oil fired boiler with either a Solaia cast iron 3 pass system (firing rate of .75) or a Burnham MPO series 3 pass system (firing rate...

Is there a minimum "distance from the ground" requirement for second stage regulators attached to homes? I had heard that the reason for the minimum height requirement is so snow does not lay to a...

I hope that this is the right section for this. As a 49 and closing in on 50 year old I know the risk in knowing just enough about a topic to get you into trouble. I live in southeastern PA and am...

I apologize for the following faux pas: My powder room is 4 feet deep and 4.5 feet wide. I reversed the numbers above. Any changes to your thoughts?

Greetings from a newbie.

Background: I'm redoing the powder room which is small (4.5' wide by 4.0' deep). I have a 19" wide wall mounted sink (17" deep) with about 2 1/2" of space to the wall...
