Hi All,
I am planning a bath renovation and my existing 20 year old toilet has a rough in of 10 1/2" (measured from finished wall to flange bolt). I am really struggling to find a replacement toilet that will fit. Some of the Kohler toilets I have looked at have a 12"RI with 1" between the tank and wall... close but not quite. All the 10" I have seen have >= 5/8" gap between the tank and wall. Correct me if I am wrong, but if I used one of those, wouldn't I end up with an inch or more gap between the tank and wall? I am ok with a small (<3/8") gap between tank and wall, but nothing more than that.
What are my options here... I am pretty sure this is going to require moving the flange (in a concrete slab) which I can do, but I really don't want to. Does anyone have any suggestions? I also don't have much money in my budget for this so something like Toto and their uni-fit(?) is probably not an option.
Thanks for your help.
