One of my favorite supplies when removing toilets is oatey liquilock.
Toilet flange concrete floor tile.
First you can pack grout into the gap between the floor and the flange.
Set your toilet flange into position on top of the tile with the back holes lined up parallel to the wall behind and the two slots parallel to the two walls on each side of the toilet.
You can use a portable hacksaw to cut the soil stack with ease.
The seal is engineered to work best with the flange on top of the finished floor.
If using a plastic flange ring be careful not to crack the ring by screwing the anchors in too far.
The bottom of the flange must be flush with the tile no gaps or it could end up too high.
Since the flange stops at the surface of the floor the wax seal is further down from the toilet itself.
This turns your toilet water into a gel and prevents the water from spilling on your floor.
Step 2 now you will require to place the closet of the toilet flange into the adjacent drainpipe.
If you ve already laid your flooring and the toilet flange is too high or unlevel there are a few things you can do.
With the toilet flange in place you are ready to install the toilet with a new wax ring.
You don t want a large wax depth from having it too low and if it is too high the toilet will rock.
Second you can raise your floor by laying down thicker tile.
In most cases the floor of a bathroom is tiled and in this case the tiling is done after the flange is installed.
If the bolts coming out of the concrete are still solidly in place and long enough then they can be used as is.
The correct location of the flange is on top of the finished floor.
You can get an extension flange to fit in the existing drain opening and fit over the existing bolts if the toilet bottom plus wax ring doesn t reach.
At first you will require to cut the toilet flange s soil stack to make it even with the concrete floor.
This video how to install toilet flange above tile on concrete floor or concret slab shows the process of installing toilet flange above porcelain tile or ov.
Screw the toilet flange onto the concrete use tapcon anchors or a similar type of masonry concrete screws to fasten the toilet flange to the concrete slab.
I had to complete a couple of toilet flange installs on a concrete floor.
