Installing the Toto One-Piece Toilet

Bob looks at the Toto one-piece, 1.6 gallon toilet that will be installed in the lavatory. Unlike other toilets, the Toto model hides all obvious workings within a sleek exterior. Installation is simple, with the special flange that is provided by Toto to reconfigure the traditional drain setup. The one-piece flange is set directly on the wax ring then pressed down to form the seal. It is then bolted to the floor and given bolts to receive the toilet that is simply dropped on top. The flange bolts fit into the toilet casing and the toilet is bolted to the floor to hold it securely in place. The interior flange changes where the toilet bowl drains, making the low-flow flush more powerful. The low-consumption tank adds to the sleek, low profile design of the toilet. More information
