How to Renew the Toilet

The toilet may need to be replaced because it is too old, not working properly and the bowl is no longer available matching …or it is simply broken. You must also never to renovate the bathroom floor, and then reinstall it.

Replace the toilet is a pretty easy thing to do, because it does not need to weld pipe. The difficult part is often to remove the old toilet, because the screws that fix in place are often rusty.
Above all, we must close the water came from the toilet with the safety valve is behind the bowl. You can then use the toilet to empty the tank. Once the tank and empty the toilet bowl, you can unscrew the screw that connects the water inlet to the tank and bowl to remove it.
You must unscrew the bowl trim attachment. Often screws are frozen and you need to cut with a hacksaw. Once you have removed the bowl, replace the trim setting if it is damaged or a different model. You must remove the old wax seal the drain. To avoid blocking the plumbing, put a towel in the sewer pipe if you do not install the new toilet immediately.
If you need to replace the gasket fixing the floor, and replace the screws with brass screws which will not rust. Place the new toilet wax seal, and then place the new toilet in place in the moving slightly from left to right until it takes its place on the floor. This crushes the wax seal in place and makes the discharge pipe well sealed.
Screw the toilet bowl in place is a tricky part, because it’s porcelain and if it cracks, it is no longer usable. Check with a level and use shims if necessary. You then tighten the bolts that hold in place by hand, and then lightly tighten with a wrench. If you squeeze too tightly, you will break the attachment points of the bowl, and then lightly tighten.
You can then install the tank and attach it to the bowl with the bolts. Then you can install the water inlet pipe and the pipe connecting the tank to the bowl of the toilet. Verify the installation by pouring water into the bowl with a boiler to see it flowing down the drain without leaks at the base of the toilet in the basement. It is less risky than hunting activate and pour 5 gallons of water at once. Then open the faucet to allow water to fill the tank. If you do not see a leak, turn on the toilet to test that everything works.
Sometimes the plumbing that connects the toilet did not come to close the tap water, then you must close the main water. You can take the opportunity to install a safety valve on the supply pipe, which is safer.
Replacing a toilet is not a difficult renovation work; it’s just a little tricky because it is a bathroom accessory that is easy to break.
