Toilet Experts,
I have a 3/4 bath that has an old Kohler toilet that doesn't flush half the time.
We're so sick and tired of plunging !
It's a tight fit - the bathroom is 4' 6" wide.
The existing rough in (measured from the wall to the bolts) is 11 1/2 "
The distance from the back of the toilet to the front lip is 26 1/2(top) 25 1/2(bottom)
The shape of the existing toilet is round.
Note: the back of the toilet tank is flush against the wall ! (I know this is bad practice).
I am being told by sales folks that I need to get a 12 inch rough in toilet, but since the
existing toilet is so flush up against the wall, I'm wondering if I really need a 10 inch rough
in toilet. I'm told the 10 inch alternative is very rare and that what I need is a 12 inch.
Should I get a drake or a drake II with a 12 inch rough in ? Get this uneasy feeling that
these models won't fit.
Any advice is greatly appreciated !
Thank you,
Doug
