As a DIY person, I have a question about the proper installation of a toilet flange. The plan for my renovated bathroom is to tile the floor but I need to know if the toilet flange should be attached to the subfloor (and so the top of the flange would be level with the top of the tile) or should I tile the floor and have the flange sit on top of the finished floor?
I've been on the internet searching this and it seems there are many proponents that say the flange should sit on top of the finished floor. However, I have heard the top of the flange should be flush with the finished floor (i.e. attach the flange to the subfloor and tile up to it). Is this not covered in the National Building Code etc. so we can determine one correct way of doing it?
Thanks for your help.
