I am confused!!! My son will install two new higher toilets for me but I'm not sure which to purchase. The master bathroom toilet is a Mansfield and the tank says A71 Feb 23, 2010 and it measures 12" from wall to bolt. So, that's a no-brainer I believe?
Now the 2nd bathroom toilet tank is also a Mansfield and inside the tank it is stamped Mansfield 160. Here is the problem. This toilet from drywall (minus baseboard) to bolt has a 11½" measurement and the back of the tank is REALLY close to the wall.
The question is whether to buy a 10" or a 12" toilet. I am thinking to replace both of these Mansfields with the ADA height AS Champion 4 Model 2586.
I appreciate all the help I can get before I make the wrong purchase.
Yes, the two Mansfields I am replacing are quite new and it's a shame just to toss them out in the end. But here's why - I am a senior and I purchased a condo all set for handicapped access but they installed regular low toilets. I want to move 'up' and this is going to be a treat for me.
Thank you, Donna
