Helped a friend put in a toilet with the Korky ring, and it rocks. We used the thin gasket, but it still rocks. I guess we'll have to shim it. My question is, does the toilet eventually settle in place? I told my friend that if it's still rocking in a week, we'll have to replace it with the wax ring...or just put shims underneath. My husband had the same issue with one of our toilets and replaced it with wax because he didn't like the rocking. I wish someone would address this problem because it seems everyone is having a problem with this if their flange is above the floor. I wish they had skinnier foam gaskets than those provided.
Thank you for the very informative video! I appreciate you knowledge and demonstration!
Appreciate it video came in very helpful tonight among some of your other content. Now that I see consistency, I haven't been sobbed. I just subscribed. Look forward seeing more Videos on walk's
Well made video, easy to understand, step by step instructions made it very enjoyable to watch and learn
I would like to see them split the thick ring in 2/3 and 1/3...That thick one is too thick and the thin one isn't thick enough...deciding if I can cut the thick one perfectly to fit my application. My closet flange is at 3/8" above...probably end up just using a wax ring.
Nice informative video
Great video! I had the exact same thing that happened with my install. Instructions said to use the bigger gasket but it just wouldn't sit right for me. Had to use the smaller one. Let's see if this fixes the sewer smell odor I was having.
Same. Did you resolve the issue?
Looks like you used a sort of adhesive to fasten that flange? What did you use?
I don't like to caulk around the toilet. I wanna know if it's leaking to head off any damage to the floor, if it does.
Caulk around the front and sides and leave the back uncaulked which is unseen anyway just in case it leaks.
Actually caulking is for water on the floor (Overflowed) so it doesn't get under the toilet , any leaks from the closet flange are coming out the ceiling below before you ever see it seep out from under the toilet...at least in my experience. If you shim the toilet the gaps may be unsightly and so you might caulk for looks.
I just installed two of these and I am very pleased. They dont include the bolts anymore though.
Lowes has the kit including bolts for around $13. Although I found it cheaper to buy without the bolts. Paid $8 for the seal and $2 for the bolt kit at Menards.
Were in iowa and bought one at Lowe's. Came with the hardware and we didn't realize it until after opening the hardware pack we purchased.
I'm curious why you did not see if the toilet was level first?
Because he's magical
Thank you. This was very helpful.
Thanks

Don't know if you can help me, but I removed my old toilet, and tried to put a new one in. Sewer gas began smelling up the room. I've hired 2 plumbers to put the toilet in, and it smells like sewer gas every time. Used spacers, XL Johnny Rings, and smoke and they do not see a leak. We did smell smoke in the toilet, but none escaped the wax or flange. The flange is old, but in relatively good shape. It's level. Where on earth would the sewer gas be coming from? We see no evidence of a crack around the flange or in the PVC drain. At my wit's end.
I am not sure if this is your problem, but If you don't connect your toilet to a water source right away you will smell sewer gas. Toilets are the only fixture with an internal P-Trap. Showers, sinks, washing machines, etc all have, what are called, p-traps in the plumbing. This is an area that holds water to stop gas from escaping. Toilet flanges do not have P-Traps, instead, they are inside the toilet. So, you have to fill the toilet up with water before the P-trap does its job. I know this may seem like a simple fix but this would be the only way you would be getting gas with a proper install. If you have fille the toilet, it could be a manufacturer defect in the P-trap of the toilet allowing gas to pass through. Good luck!
The plumber put the toilet in, and filled it up, I actually used it for 2 days. But a day later I was still smelling gas. I even tried to chalk around the whole toilet and flange bolts to stop the flow of the air. No luck. This really is just awful. Thanks.
I closed the bathroom door after installation. Does it take more than a light fan to get that gas out of your house?
