I'm about to install ceramic floor tile in my remodeled bathroom. The CL on the cast iron flange is going to end up about 13 1/2" from the finished wall.
The Toto Vespin II I ordered arrived last night. Reading the instuctions on the 14" unifit adapter I see that it's going to require four screws (and plastic sleeves) through the finished tile to secure it. I am wondering if anyone who has experience installing a unifit adapter would recommend anything before I install the tile?
I was thinking of pre-measuring and pre-drilling into the durock, or even removing a small amount of tile where the screws will have to go in...although I'm not sure that would create a very secure mount.
Or should I just continue as usual and worry about screwing it in later?
I will be having a professional plumber make the final connections but I don't know if he has any experience installing a unifit before.
