Toto Unifit Concerns
I set my flange last week. It was about 1/8" tilted off the floor, but once I tightened the screws, it rested on the floor without problem. Now, I want a Toto Soiree. I just got off the phone with a rep, and he said it was proper for the flange's TOP surface to be flush with the floor. If the bottom is flush with the floor, it'll tilt back the unifit, he said. This is counter to the prevailing wisdom here on this site, and if it causes problems, I am going to be quite irritated.
The other issue is a bonehead move of my own. Toto's Unifit drain that couples to the closet flange allegedly requires the closet bolts to be at 3 and 9 o' clock. I was inattentive and cemented my flange so that the bolts' entry slots are nearly at 3 and 9! Therefore, they won't be retained in the T-slot sections at all. I was hoping upon viewing an illustration of the Unifit that the coupling flange could rotate to an ideal orientation. The CSR says no can do, it is all rigid. Ho boy. Anyone else familiar with the Unifits?
Worst case, I can cut the 3" drain, rotate it to a better orientation, re-cement with a coupling, and drill another 4 holes in my slate tile. By the way, I was successful pre-drilling the slate, and self-leveling cement below it, with a standard drill bit. Anyway, do I have other options here? Was the CSR right -- the Unifit is totally rigid?
