Hello,
I am in the middle of a toilet replacement in my bathroom and when I removed my old toilet, I discovered that the toilet flange was installed as follows:
There is a 3" cast iron waste pipe (vertical), ending about 8 inches below the floor level. Into that cast iron pipe, a 3" ABS pipe with a toilet flange was inserted. The ABS assembly is one foot long so roughly about 4" of the ABS pipe are inside the cast iron. The ABS assembly is not secured in any way to the cast iron pipe. I am wondering, what would a better way to do this? Would something like the Fernco 3" by 3" donut work in this case in order to join the ABS pipe to the cast iron? Something like this?
