Ok, Where to start, Don't let them scare you into spending more money then you need to on a product that won't last as long! Abs fittings are cheap and they litterally make different flanges for all kinds of different situations. I'm a Plumber, we don't install a w/c flange without knowing the finished height of a floor, if we don't know or can't get that info we will extend the pipe well above finished floor (cap it) and then buy a flange that fits into 3" pipe, therefore allowing us to cut the pipe down and install the flange after the floor has been installed. dont be worried that the pipe inside diameter will then be around 2.75"s because there probably isnt a w/c or bidet on the market today that has an inside diameter larger then 2.5"s.. however this product would be handy to raise a flange without the need of a plumber if you were doing a reno and the new floor will be higher then the old, I am just a little worried about that gasket though, it will dry out and crack eventually which will lead to damaged sub floor/leaks..
Exactly where I found myself and exactly the product I needed that no other video or forum post could point me to. Thank you!
