Toto CArlyle install

Water supply location for the Carlyle

​

The Carlyle fits closer to the wall than most toilets. ​

Therefore the water supply needs to be 7" to the left of center or it will hit the back of the toilet. ​

Sometimes plumbers have roughed in the water supply closer than that. ​

When I install a Carlyle, I ask the homeowner for a measurement over the phone so a decision can be made as to whether it will fit "as-is" or if the water supply needs to be moved. ​

With copper pipes in the wall, I can solder on a 90 el and a short piece of copper pipe and move the shutoff to the left. ​

There are many bathrooms that fit as they are. Each case is different. I now "rough-in" the water supplies at 8", which as I remember has been used by other brands as their suggestion too. ​
