    I was hoping to install a toto drake II in my bathroom. While I have a 12" rough-in, it turns out I have a baseboard heating element in the wall behind the toilet and the Drake's base is meant to go all the way right up against the wall, unlike the current toilet wich has a few inch gap in the back. I could get rid of the heating element but it would be a big hassle.

    I need a 3" gap - can anyone suggest a low-flow toilet (toto or other) that performs well and does not need to have the base right up against the wall? From pictures the Aquia has a gap but even the cad drawings don't specify how big it is.

    Help!

    Thanks,

    Tom S.

    Thanks Terry - I guess I have to find one to look at since the cad drawings on the toto site do not give this distance.
