What happens here

Place a standard wax ring without a horn onto the secured flange extender. Center it over the drain opening. Press the wax ring down firmly onto the flange, and give it a slight quarter-turn to help it spread and create a complete seal before setting the toilet.

Goal: Create the final seal for the toilet

What they say

Hide

here. I always just use an extra set of nuts and washers. These are self tapping screws and it's taking a bit to get through that flange. Gas kit looks like it's nice and compressed down there. Now we're going to install our wax ring. This is a standard wax ring. There's no horn. I like to push it straight down on. Give it a quarter turn.
