I removed the old cast iron toilet flange while remodeling. The hole in the floor is larger than I am used to and my new flange just barely overlaps the sub-floor, not enough support in my opinion, I would have to drive screws at an angle to bite into the sub-floor. So I ordered a flange support from Sioux Chief. Any thoughts on this product? It's just some metal plates that come in two halves that can be inserted under flange and extends a little further out onto the sub-floor for better support and attachment?
2nd - After gluing up my 4" stack (its directly below the toilet, so everything is vertical), my waste pipe ended up a little lower than I had planned, so now the new spigot fit toilet flange doesn't fit tightly into the 4" pipe like it did during my dry run. I really don't want to remove the waste pipe and re-do it, so was wondering if a different style flange would work, I have heard of ones that use an external compression connection to the pipe, but I have never used or seen one. Or do they make a regular toilet flange with a longer pipe that would extend further into the 4" waste pipe and get a tight fit. Thanks all.
