Toto Neorest direct to floor outlet installation

kg09 · Nov 2, 2009

Because of space problem, I need to have the Toilet installed WITHOUT USING
the "floor flange mounting point outlet connection" in it's entirety. It is planned, to
only use the "side securing point of outlet connection" and connect it directly to the
"floor flange"

This would mean that the outlet drains STRAIGHT into the floor outlet and we
would like to know that it will not affect the flushing or flushing mechanism.

This is how they normally would be installed below

If you drop it right into the floor flange, how do you plan on sealing it?

thanks for the quick comment
the plumber helping expects the sealing not be a problem but is concerned that it MAY impede the flushing process

The adapter works with a standard 12" rough.

How far is your drain from the back wall?

IF he can get the toilet connection sealed and the toilet secured to the floor, it will probably be some kind of kludge, but the flushing operation will be unaffected. I think he is oversimplifiying the difficulty he will have.

the BEGINNING of the drain hole is 4 inches from the wall - the diameter of the current hole is 4.7 inches (12 cm)
I am not clear what HJ means by "oversimplifying" the flushing, should I not have to be concerned about that?

What country is this in?

In the United States, the plumbing for a toilet is 12" from the back wall.
If yours is 4" from the back wall, then someone made a mistake.

I imagine you could cobble something together for it, it's kind of sad that you would have to cobble a $3500 toilet because the plumber missed the correct location during rough-in.

In my (unprofessional) opinion, It WILL NOT WORK! The adapter contains the S-trap, it is NOT built-into the toilet like a conventional toilet, so there would be no good siphon and the flush would be terrible. The two parts are designed to work together.

Thank you, Gentlemen, for the advise and comments.
Considering all the info provided, my plumber has drilled a new hole and everything now is solved !
