Currently, my basement bathroom is stubbed with 3 inch ABS. The floor is concrete, and I will be setting the toilet on some vinyl tile over the concrete. I bought a flange that fits over the 3 inch pipe, but I'm not sure that there is going to be enough clearance from the pipe to the conrete hole to slide the thing on. I also saw a flange that fits inside the 3 inch, but of course this reduces the width. My question is, how much width does a drain realy need? I opened a wax ring package and to me it looked like the opening was about 2 and a half inches so I would assume that is all that is really needed. So, when I try to fit the outside of the pipe flange, and it doesn't work, could I use this inside the pipe flange. I wont have time to mess around wit this until the weekend, so I dont know if it's goign to work right now.
I'm also considering building a false floor and setting the toilet on that, and it would probably be easier for me to hide the copper that i'm installing.
