We are in the middle of a bathroom reno and are looking to maximize the small space. The toilet plumbing now appears to be a 14" original rough-in with a 2" offset. It appears they had also cut down the flange itself to reduce the overall height, however there is still a slight uphill slope over the 5' span to the stack. We have never really had problems, but I am looking for a more proper fix.
I realize I could just go with a 14" rough in toilet (removing the offset to address the improper slope), however I'd rather not buy a new toilet, and the increased depth would eat into the bathroom space, which is already pretty small. I was searching for a low profile offset flange, and found what may work, however I'd like someone with more experience to weigh in on options.
The flange I found was at home depot: 3 in. PVC Open Spigot Toilet Flange with 45° Angle and Stainless Steel Ring. I imagine that flange, into another 45 would reduce the total height by a bit.
Are there other options that may be a better solution?
