I am trying to figure out if this toilet will fit my rough in.

The diagram below has me confused though. I can understand that the rough in is 12" from finished wall to center of outlet. But...

Licensed plumber just told me to install it flush?! I know you guys told me to install it on TOP of the tile.

What gives?

I live on the first floor condo with two units above me. We came home to a mess in our sink. It could not have been anything we did - nothing was left running. So, I surmise we have an issue with...

Thanks for the help, advice, experience and understanding. I knew I was too close to the toilet when I took the picture - would have taken me 10 minutes to move prior to my slc pour. Oh well - live...

My ejector pit pump is not working properly. The pumping function works fine, but there appears to be a problem with the flow control device that was once installed. Can someone look a these...

Thanks on the toilet advice. I will see if the wife wants to spring for a toto. Do any of the big boxes carry Toto?

Regarding the flange, I was thinking that two screws would be fine. I am...

The distance between my newly tiled wall and the center of the flange is going to be 11 - to 11.5" What size toilet should I shop for?

I also have a flange screw/anchoring question. I screwed...

I screwed up my tiled countertop height, so I am desperately trying to make up some inches. I intended on having a vessel mount sink, and this Kohler sink was the "thinest" sink I could find. Has...

Jim: Thanks for the quick reply. I installed the coupler patch on three of the holes, and that seems to be holding real good. On the last one, I had to do the Macgyver screwdriver approach because...

I accidently drilled three durock screws into a vent pipe that is at the backsplash of my bathroom.

Should I remove the durock, cut the pipe and fix it or just hit those holes with some cualk.

just return the toilet to costco - you'll have a full refund in about 60 seconds. use the money to buy a new one there or someplace else.

You can also call Waterridge and they should...

Thanks for the quick responses.

What is the code that this vent is in violation of? Is it a distance requirement at which point the vent must be higher than the fixture?

Secondly, why does...

Jim - thanks for the reply. I was wondering what would happen with a potential clog. I can't go up - there's four more floors of living space above me, none of which is mine. I will see what I can...

I am getting ready to close up this floor - but wanted to make sure that my toilet vent pipe is ok. This is the way it was hooked up from the original condo construction.

Sorry I do not have a...

Considering a new toilet for a bath remodel and wanted to get some advice on the best flushing toilet for the dollar. I don't care about efficiency - in fact I would rather not purchase a product...

Powerhouse - never even thought of that. Thanks for the advice - that's the way I am going to approach it.

I installed a radiant floor heating system and a steam unit and needed access.

The wc vent does connect to the same vent stack as the sink (and the shower), but it does so "after" the sink. As you can see, I don't have much room to work with - that wc drain goes downstairs and...

Trusses are engineered to allow a wide variety of spans, spacing and loads. They are much stronger than joists - and always used in 3/4 flat condo construction in Chicago - regular joists and/or...

HJ - Interesting idea as well. This would allow me to drywall the room below in the meantime.

I saw the Waterridge Dual Flush toilets at my local Costco for $85, including the gradual seat drop. No, Costco does not sell parts, but they also don't ask questions when you return products. So,...

Gary - I like the dry fit idea. I did not think of that. Basically it's a combonation of what I was thinking and would allow me the most flexibility.

What is the problem with the HVAC vent?

I am in the middle of a bathroom remodel. My next step is to install the subfloor, and I want to get the subfloor as close to the flange/pipe assembly for the toilet as possible. My only issue is...

I am installing a steam line from my shower area to the basement below.

It's properly pitched, but I would still like to test it before I close everything up.

Does anyone think this is...

This is good news to me. Thanks. Now, I hope my existing distance is 12"
