Toilet Wax Ring Leak Fix

Toilet Wax Ring Leak Fix

I’m back at it again with a Toilet Wax Ring Leak Fix, one of the most common bathroom repairs. Today we’re tackling a leak that’s been dripping from the kitchen ceiling. It seems I made a mistake when I installed this toilet, well, what can I say? It was a few years ago and the right tools for the job didn’t even exist at that time.

I’m now going to install a new product to fix the problem I had back then. That’s why we’re using the Oatey Twist-N-Set Toilet flange. It’s designed specifically for this type of issue and I think it will do the trick. Besides, I’ve learned from my mistakes before and I’m confident in its ability to fix our leak.

First, I’ll install the flange according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Then, I’ll make sure everything is secure and tightened properly. But wait, there’s a catch! When I go to put it together, I realize that it won’t fit my sewer pipe as planned. What’s more, this is exactly what happened when I first installed the toilet all those years ago.

In addition, I have to modify the flange to make it work with our specific toilet configuration. It’s not ideal, but sometimes that’s just part of the process. Furthermore, I’ll need to double-check my work to ensure everything is watertight and secure.

So, let’s see if this modified installation will fix our leak once and for all. Nor do I have any doubts that it will, thanks to the Oatey Twist-N-Set Toilet flange. Last but not least, we’ll be testing its effectiveness with a little grey water to make sure everything is working as intended.

Watch till the end to see if this Toilet Wax Ring Leak Fix has finally solved our bathroom problem!

As a special treat, Let’s look at some of my Plant family. My indoor Garden makes me very happy!

I retired from a large mid-western medical equipment manufacturer on December 31 (2019) and decided to try to let everyone in on my life and my transition into retirement. I have a varied set of interests. I live in a 90 year old cape cod in the middle of a small city of 70,000 people. I have a small lot across the street from the city seat of government, but despite that I have a 1952 Allis Chalmers farm tractor that I drive around the city from time to time. My wife has a business that has me fixing and creating cool home decor out of broken windows and drywall screws. I have been known to buy things on 'for sale' lists, fix it up, clean it up, generally add value and sell it off. Oh, yes, I'm getting chickens! But first I have to build the chicken coop and run. It will be like no other you have ever seen. Also will give me something to do. I am into home automation, have a Home Assistant enabled home and so will the chickens! I'll have to give them a password...
