wtc 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2009 Hi, what do we need to check when buying WC? - Any measurement to take? Like wall to the drainage hole? - How to take the measurement if the existing WC is sitting on top? - Or it does not matter if going to hack and redo the whole toilet? Thanks!

Thanks! hi Measure from wall to the MIDDLE of the hole...you can stil do this even tho there is existing WC.. i guess the main thing is to get feedback from users...i seem to hv some problems w my OTTO wc even tho it was more expensive...it jus doesnt flush as cleanly...but since no smell i hv taken the problem as it is for now... better that u ask ard before buying...good luck.

Ripples 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2009 hi wtc eiffel is correct. you need to the measure the length from the wall to the middle of the wc hole. you can do it accurately after you remove the old wc. you can go +/- 1" with your wc selection. also, you have to know if it has a p-trap or s-trap. your contractor should be able to tell you. as of july 1, all wc's need to have dual flush systems. so make sure you don't buy from the old stock at a cheaper price. it'll cost you more to replace the flushing system later on. just received my toto wc's. not sure what's your budget, but they've a great selection of wc's.
