I am replacing a toilet and found that the flange is installed so that the slots for the T-bolts cannot be used -- the flange is rotated 90 degress so that the slots for the T-bolts are in the wrong place. Instead the toilet was fastened down with screws screwed through the round holds in the flange and directly into the floor underneath the flange.
By the way, there was some leakage under that toilet (wet floorboards, mold) that I've cleaned up.
Question: Is it safe to re-install the same way -- using screws into the floor instead of T-bolds connected directly to the flange?
