Product Information
The 2-Piece Closet Flange Repair Ring is a plumbing accessory used to repair or replace a damaged or worn-out flange ring in a toilet installation. It is designed to provide a secure and stable connection between the toilet and the floor, ensuring proper functionality and preventing leaks. This repair ring is made of durable materials that are resistant to corrosion and can withstand the pressures and demands of regular toilet usage. It is compatible with most standard toilets and can be easily installed with basic tools.
Product Usage Instructions
- Always be aware of and follow local plumbing codes and regulations to ensure compliance and safety.
- Before starting the installation, remove the old metal flange ring and thoroughly clean the area around the flange to ensure a clean and smooth surface for the new repair ring.
- Slide the two pieces of the repair ring together under the lip of the flange until the bolt slots align.
- Lock the two pieces of the repair ring together by fastening closet bolts into the slots using two flat nuts and two smaller washers. Ensure that the bolts are tightened securely but not over-tightened.
- Confirm the position of the closet bolts, making sure they align with the mounting holes on the toilet base. Adjust if necessary.
- Fasten the repair ring to the flooring by inserting a screw on both sides of each closet bolt. Use a total of four screws, ensuring they are tightened securely.
- Install a wax/sealing ring onto the repaired flange, ensuring it is properly seated and centered.
- Place the toilet onto the wax/sealing ring, aligning the mounting holes on the base with the closet bolts.
- Secure the toilet to the repair ring by fastening two domed nuts and two larger washers onto the closet bolts. Tighten the nuts securely but avoid over-tightening, as it may damage the toilet or the repair ring.
- Double-check all connections and ensure that the toilet is stable and properly aligned. Make any necessary adjustments.
- Once the installation is complete, test the toilet for leaks by flushing multiple times and inspecting for any water seepage around the repaired flange area.
