AMERICAN STANDARD TOILET AND SLOAN FLUSHOMETER INSTALL 

As a plumber, if you caulk all the way around the bottom of the toilet, and the wax rings fails, then the water will have nowhere to go and you will never know that it has failed. Never caulk all the way around the toilet.

Simply plumbing perfection. I did two of these yesterday. I came out of retirement to help a younger brother with his work load. For only a couple of months. That was 3 years ago LOL. I have been asked to train a number of new hires. Funny most think they know everything after a few months. I enjoyed.

I'm re-installing 7 stools tomorrow at my church after a flooring job. We went with all new sloan valves, and this video was very helpful. thanks!

I think it’s awesome your teaching your son the trade. I work for my father in NC and I am an unlimited license plumber at 24 years old. I enjoy it. Not for everybody but tons of opportunities

For some reason, that was relaxing. When I usually watch others do plumbing videos they either feel like a commercial, empty, or as if they were dead inside.

New installs are usually very simple following the correct order of parts. I had one sensor valve not working out of the box. I quickly changed it to a manual and it flushed just fine. I changed the brand new out of the box batteries and the sensor worked. Its always something.

I’m a 5th year apprentice and I did my first one today your video is spot on 🔥

Passed my work keys test for plumber/pipefitter apprenticeship and now got an interview in 3 weeks!

Got to install 4 of these tomorrow for a clinic first time alone wish me luck guys 🙌🏻

I somehow won a battle with my wife and we are adding a urinal in our basement bathroom. Thank your for this video, I was able to assemble the sloan valve we got even though it didn't come with instructions!

Fantastic, great to see a passionate plumber I’m a huge Sloan Valve fan.

Awesome channel man. Your sons are very lucky to have you around and also to be able to teach them not only plumbing but how to run a plumbing business. I’m also a Barron from the west coast 🤘

Most of us in my area use a product called set fast no cut toilet bolts they're 5/16 and they use a two-piece design and the stud does not have to be cut, you ought to check them out, saves time and that translates to saving money, not to mention getting upset in tight spaces keep up the good work

Thought i was the only one that loved the smell of new parts!

for the Closet Bolt Question I prefer 6" Channel Locks and to cut them loose or cut off excess I use a Cordless Angle Grinder (18v Red or 20v Yellow Brands) with a Cut Off Wheel.

Thanks for all the great videos..not a plumber just a diy guy... lots of great tips and entertaining videos, keep em coming...

Learned a lot from watching you!! I do this all day and come home and watch your videos! Plumb on! 💪🏻

Great job! Nice to watch someone else install Sloan valves besides me. lol. In my area (Central KY), the ZURN flush valves are popular and less expensive.

Good blessed day today mi amigo

I saved tons of money on calling a plumber just by watching your videos!

I have never used caulk on the bottom of a toilet before setting it on the flange. Seems like a pretty neat idea. Only problem I would foresee is the toilet leaking from the wax ring after you set it. It can get pretty messy to re-pull the toilet to check the problem out with all that fresh caulk you just applied. Just my thoughts.

The only thing i hate about sloan valves is the black cover for no reason will start to leak. Nice job Cb, i use the pass thru ratchet to tighten the toilet bolts, and for the toilet seat

Excellent videoclip. I'd like to view the same, but only next time installing either an American Standard Afwall millennium, Crane Placidus or Kohler Stratton wall mounted commercial flushometer toilet in either 1.6 or 3.5 gpf sloan regal xl 115 flushometer valve.

I like Sloan and zurn flushometers

14 toilets, sounds like cb2 has a good boost to the liquor fund!

Looks good, I’ve never caulked a toilet before setting it, looks like a real good seal I’ll have to try it!

Those American standard toilet bowls are called maderas! I have one in my toilet collection! It has a flushometer and everything. Check it out on my channel!

Thanks

Good night sir .

Nice job Chuck!

Thank you for doing the "boop!" on both closet bolts! :)

Nice install of an American standard Madera!

You know that I can install on TOTO CT705 and American Standard Madera? I can buy the TOTO Auto Ecoflush. This may hold the button longer when these 2 toilets flushes. Just like Zurn Omniflo Aquavantage Urinal.

This may sound weird but when I get my own place I’m thinking about getting a flushometer toilet installed

Top shelf quality video

"I love Sloan parts, especially when they're new." Hahaha

The escutcheon set screw should be facing the floor. Isn't it best to leave a gap in the caulk under the toilet toward the rear so you can see any leak in the wax seal?

Will you make a video of installing a Sloan sensor flushometer?

You forgot to tighten the pipe escutcheon to the wall! Other than that I love watching a pro at work!!

nice job chucky

Everytime I have used that slip washer I get a leak. I use a dab if lube and I'm good.

Blue monster Teflon 🤘🏻 good stuff..

Ay tell CB2 don’t be soft.. AND THERE GOES ANOTHER SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!!! 🤙😎🤑🏄

Nice job again Boys! How about that tamper proof cover? I use a gear wrench on those Johnny bolts. "Got the shots" until next time.....plumb on!

2:55 2:59 I heard him say good morning

How much do you charge for that installation? Hopefully you answer my question Im a follower of you

I like Sloan valves too, never been able to figure out what the paper gaskets for though on vacuum breaker

What toilets used to be in the building?

Cuánto debe medir del muro al sanitario

How many liters does use for flush?

wow that's some ceiling tiles above that cubicle lol

Why didn't you show us how to install the Spud on the toilet first

This kind of toilet, the Madera from American Standard, seems to get a ton of unnecessary hate...

Good job boys!. Hey lee what did u think about them channel locks? lol hahahahah

You are scratching the fittings they have a special tool

CB-1 I didn't see you tighten up the set screw for the a scussion plate lol I see everything. Peace brother

You never put silicone on the contour of the base of the toilet, because it traps moisture and the soil can rot. The wax plumbing donut does all the work of sealing.

Hello this is plumbing service. How can I help you? Can you replace my toilet please

Is it possible to attach a bidet or Muslim shower to a flushometer?

Sealed a potty before testing.nice.

Where is this place it looks like a house

Question: I have a couple of new toilets and seats to install in a commercial building, and do you know if it’s legal or not to install closed front toilet seats w/ lids (like the ones in your house) or do we have to use open front ones?

CB I was taught never to silicone the entire base of the toilet cause u will never know if there is a small leak from the flange or wax seal. What are your thoughts?

I collect flushometers for fun I can rebuild a flushometer in like 1 minuet and I am 17

Invest in a knipex plier wrench, you'll save time and don't beat up the chrome parts ;)

What company makes that wax ring?

Chuck, do you ever do a lot of underground work? I’ve been looking for a video for my new apprentices on groundwork, grading a ditch, measuring and accurately installing fixture stub-ups (like installing the underground work before the slab is even poured,no walls up). I’m a plumbing instructor, and explaining it to them on a white board seems to be tough to get the concepts across. I don’t want to call their journeymen complacent, but let’s just say that they don’t take the time in showing them this. Instead, the apprentices are tasked with backfilling ditches and being gopher’s for fittings, pipe, and glue. Do you have any videos for new construction start to finish underground work? Their seems to be videos for everything else on RU-vid, but underground plumbing installation techniques seems to fall into a black hole on RU-vid.

Should have wrote on bathroom wall. "Looking for a good plumber call Barron"

Never saw anybody call a toilet that way , not saying it's wrong.

You should cover the chrome before you put a pipe wrench on it so you don’t mar the finish. Looks better. Just my two cents

This sucks. If you can't hear your plumb out of luck

For the size of the asses now a days they’re going to have to start making the seat a four bolt install….

Why would you ever caulk the bottom of a toilet . Toilets are made to have repairs done , caulking them you have to start cutting the caulk to rip the toilet out and if it’s caulked and sealed and the toilet is leaking you won’t know because the caulk is sealing the leak . Stupid move , rookie mistake
