The Square Toilet Revolution Is Upon Us! #plumbing #plumber #toilet

What happens here

With the top unit removed, the ceramic base of the toilet is positioned over the floor flange. The demonstrator points to the now easily accessible bolt holes within the ceramic base. This allows for a direct and unhindered approach to securing the toilet to the floor using standard toilet bolts, nuts, and washers. Once secured, the base is firm and stable.

Goal: Fasten the toilet's ceramic base securely to the bathroom floor flange.
