18 inches to center
12 inches from the center of the drain to the back wall behind the tank. Some toilets are 10" rough in. Also should be 18" from side wall to center of toilet if possible.
To measure a toilet for replacement, first measure the distance from the wall to the center of the bolts at the base of the toilet. Then, measure the rough-in distance, which is the distance from the wall to the center of the drainpipe. Lastly, measure the width of the toilet at its widest point. These measurements will help you find a replacement toilet that fits properly.
12" from rear wall....16 to 18 from side wall....measurements are to center of flange
To measure the toilet rough-in without removing the toilet, you can use a tape measure to measure the distance from the wall behind the toilet to the center of the closet bolts at the base of the toilet. This measurement will give you the rough-in measurement, which is typically either 10, 12, or 14 inches.
A standard toilet roughs in at 12" from the wall.
No, a 12-inch toilet cannot be properly installed on an 11-inch rough-in. The rough-in measurement indicates the distance from the wall to the center of the toilet drain, and using a toilet designed for a larger rough-in on a smaller one would lead to improper alignment and potential plumbing issues. It is crucial to match the toilet to the correct rough-in size for proper installation and functionality.
The distance between the toilet and the wall is approximately 12 inches.
The ideal distance of a toilet drain from the wall is typically around 12 inches.
The ideal distance of a toilet flange from the wall is typically around 12 inches.
The recommended distance for a toilet to be offset from the wall is typically around 15 inches.
Code minimum 15" to center of toilet from side wall.
Would be risking damage to the tank and possibly open for a major lawsuit
