How do you install a closet flange on a waste pipe in a concrete floor that is not vertical?
I would need to know how the pipe you want to use is set. I will guess that it might be horizontal? There is a saddle clamp available that could possible be used. A section of pipe could be cut out and an inlet added. Rubber couplers would be used to connect the two. You also have to consider how and where a toilet would be vented. Is there a vent behind where you are planing to install the toilet and if not can one be added?
