Hi All,
I've been searching everywhere, and can't seem to find a 3" spigot (inside 3" hub fitting) offset closet flange anywhere. Does anyone make such an animal? The closest thing I've found is the Sioux Chief 45 degree one, but that doesn't work for my install, as it required a side inlet closet ell...
I have a very tight setup, the old cast iron that was replaced had a specialty fitting, kind of an extended 4" closet ell with (2) 1.5" side inlets picking up the lav and shower. Replacing this with PVC required going down to 3" with a bushing, pulling the lav through a 3x1.5 wye and the shower through a side inlet closet ell. This still left me at about 13" rough (which is ok), but the side to side location of the toilet is off by about 2 inches from where I want it (and where it needs to be by code). So I'm trying to go off the top of that closet ell with an offset flange, pushing it a couple inches to the left and maybe half an inch or so back.
Problem is, it was a tight install and I didn't have room to keep the closet ell low enough to have fall and still fit a standard 3x4 offset flange in on top of it, so I thought I could get a 3" spigot offset, but no such luck so far. Other possible option would be a 4" hub offset flange, if such a thing exists, as this will glue up over top of the 3" hub, but that seems less preferable.
Are there any such fittings available? If so who makes them, do you have part numbers, where to get them, anything? If not, any other ideas? its already plumbed in as described above, and after 2 days of looking at it with a couple of plumbers, we couldn't come up with any better arrangement for what is there.
Thanks!
