6.2 Toilet installation
1. To replace an older toilet, turn off water supply to toilet. Remove and drain water supply line.
Remove toilet hold-down bolts/screws. Remove toilet from floor. Remove and discard old
floor flange seal and hold-down bolts. Verify center of floor flange is at least the recommended
rough-in distance from back wall (fig.
3 A, p. 3) for your toilet model (see Rough-in dimensions
chart). Make sure top surface of floor flange is clean and free of any debris or sealant.
2. If installing a new floor flange, make certain that toilet mounting holes are located at the correct
angle (fig. 3 D, p. 3). Floor flange must be secured to floor with a minimum of four screws
(8 is preferred). Insert two supplied T-bolts into slots in floor flange (fig. 4 p. 3).
3. Verify that floor flange seal is installed on base of toilet (fig. 5 A, p. 3). Carefully set toilet over
floor flange. Align holes in toilet base with T-bolts as toilet is lowered onto floor flange. Toilet
must be aligned so that outlet of base fits inside of floor flange outlet hole.
Note
Entire toilet base does not rest completely on floor yet. Floor seal must be compressed in
following steps.
4. Install floor mounting nuts and washers onto T-bolts. Carefully torque nuts to 30-40 inch-
pounds. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. Alternate between sides when tightening to prevent
distortion of base. When tight, base should be securely attached and flat against floor.
Attach bolt covers onto nuts. (Fig.
5 B, p. 3)
5. If toilet is being installed in a shower stall, apply a bead of caulk around base of toilet to prevent
water seepage under base.
6. Connect water supply line and torque connection to 30-40 inch-pounds.
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN. (Fig. 5 C, page 3)
7. Turn on water supply line. Flush toilet several times and check for leaks.
