Best Answer

The standard toilet height is the same standard height of a chair which is between 16 to 17 inches. You can order toilets that are higher off the ground than that for older people who have a hard time getting up off the toilet.

Standard size of toilet?

Standard height is 15" but you can get comfort height or ADA models which are 17" high. The standard toilet rough in dimension is 12", which means the outlet of the toilet at the floor is 12" from the unfinished wall, but they do make 10" and 14" rough in models. The width really depends on the type of toilet you get but remember International Plumbing Code requires 15" from the center of the toilet to the nearest wall. Hope that helps.

What is universal toilet height?

There are a variety of terms that relate to toilet bowl height. It is never measured with the seat on. More and more consumers are preferring an elevated bowl height rather than the "standard" bowl height of 14". Previously, these toilets were manufactured for the disabled, and as such, have the designation "ADA". When you see a toilet marked ADA, you know the seat is between 17-19" high.Some manufacturers want to avoid the "disabled" label, so they use various terms: "right" height, "chair height", "tall" height and "universal height". ALL of these terms are interchangeable, meaning the seat is 16" or higher.
