I am debating now if I should have a plumber come in and do a lead connection new cast iron flange to my cast iron pipe.. Or if I should use one of the compression seal flanges and screw into the subfloor.
Wouldn't mind saving a few bucks.
Any reason not to use these? The floor will be tile laid on cement board, the subfloor under that is 2 layers of ply for a total of 1 1/8". I could also add additional backing under the floor very easy for more wood to screw into.
My only question is about the size of the hole. The subfloor right now is cut out around the pipe with some space. On one side there is probably almost 3/4" gap between the pipe and the plywood, is that too much? I guess I could always add backing from the underside and fill the gap and screw into it all?
Any advice would be appreciated, going back and forth over this.
Thanks
