some of the toilet flanges state they are reusable, the only time i would recommend these are if you know the toilet is coming back out in the near future. 100% was is my go to!

I used the Korky foam/rubber one that you had in the video on the last install I did and it seemed to work good. Haven't noticed any leaks. If I remember correctly, the flange was on the low side on that one. I'm going to try it again on the current install I'm doing. I have the flange installed on top of vinyl plank just like in the video and it's the one with the stainless steel flange just like in the video. I bought that one and one that was all PVC, but, went with the stainless steel one because it looked like it would stick up just slightly over 1/4" above the finished floor, which is what I heard was recommended. The PVC one was much tall. More like 1/2" and I was afraid the toilet would rock had I gone with that one. The Korky seal has two pieces of foam and a piece of rubber. One piece of foam is thicker and the other is thinner. So, you can use either one, or both. I think it was around $11. So, it is more expensive than the wax ones, but, you don't have to worry about squishing the wax. So, I figured it was worth the extra money to have something where you could take the toilet off and adjust if necessary.

I have experimented with korky before and had good results. After making this video i realized I failed to mention something for guys that have a floor like tile or similar that the flange was not properly installed. They make a pvc stackable spacer that you install and can silicon two together if needed. I have not used them so I can back them much but anything to get the floor to the proper height is always better. Back to the korky brand, yes you are 💯 right. you can work with them until they have been in service for sometime I feel like. As long as they dont leak right?! Oh and guys DO NOT CAULK AROUND YOU TOILET! You want to see a leak not trap it. Trust me replacing the sub floor sucks!!!

@@ZacpactvTotally agree on what you said about caulking. Believe it or not, the toilet flange I just replaced wasn't even a toilet flange. It was a hack job. A PVC coupling with a spacer on top of it. The only reason the toilet wasn't leaking was because it was some kind of weird toilet that had a rubber piece attached to the bottom of the toilet that went down about 4". Yes, you can stack the spacers and PVC cement them together.

@@idmhead0160 Oh wow sounds like a head scratcher lol. That makes sense to be able to cement the pvc spacers!

Every wax ring that has a horn, when I remove the horn is cracked. Every. Single. One. And yes. Like all you guys, I’ve changed out a lot of comodes.

He says " this flange must sit on top of finished floor " BUT He doesn't say with flange he's using.

Any standard flange will work pvc or steel ring. The (brand) doesn’t matter.

My toilet has been leaking, ever since I changed the toilet, My flange is lower then the floor! So my flange needs to be taller!

Yes, they sell white pvc spacers as well! You can stack them if needed (caulk in between spacers. Some guys can get away with a jumbo wax ring on a lower the floor height flange. Is it possible the toilet is cracked? Any chance you removed it and set it in the cold with water in the bottom? I had a new to me toilet for a flip property. It was leaking at the bottom a hair line crack from it freezing.

@@Ryan-yi6su Hopefully the sub floor has not rotted or you need to do some fixing. A lose flange is not a secure flange.
