[@paulleidig6095]

Thanks John. My toilet began leaking... Again, after having a plumber repair the first leak. I'll reattempt on my own today with an extra thick reinforced wax ring. Keep the handyman videos coming. New subscriber here!

[@kurtbilinski1723]

Note that the blue part of the Perfect Seal assembly is an optional piece, used only if its extra "reach" is needed (when the existing flange is sunk down in the floor). The instructions that come with the Perfect Seal cover that. Another common question is: where should the pipe-mounted flange sit? Should it be on the base surface (wood or cement), or should it be sitting on top of the finished floor? The correct answer is - on top of the finished floor. So if you add tile, factor in cutting out the old flange, install the tile, then install a new flange. Yes, the Perfect Seal part "can" work with the existing flange, but I like to replace it anyway because often, the new floor surface and the old flange aren't always parallel.

[@randomadviceguy1780]

Fantastic!

[@stephenforde8162]

I have a leak at the base of my toilet and been struggling to find a plumber, this video just gave me the confidence I've been looking for to do it myself. Great video👍🏾

[@eileensudzina5675]

This will be second time replacing seal after about 15 years. Yes, I did have to use 2 wax rings the first time because it was not enough. NO, I don't want to do this again myself but I am capable of doing this and it is cold and snowing and not much else to do. Thanks for the video. I will need to watch another to get the jest of removing the toilet. I think the current screws are rusted and bent. SO that is step one. I bought 4 different types of seals hoping to elliminate the 5 normal trips back to the hardware store. Where's a guy when you need one.

[@howtodoitdude1662]

Wax rings work fine. You need to know how to use them. You install them on the toilet first, then you placed it over the flange. If you put the wax ring on the flange first, there’s a possibility that the toilet will not sit properly.

[@bravingbrivatebrian]

No doubt that works most of the time but I'd be willingly to bet the vast majority of plumbers put it on the flange first. Never seen any plumber do that.

[@daveb2177]

I have never seen a plumber do that or even had it recommended. I got into the electrical trade in 2000. (Side note) Things were laid back, and learning on the job was possible back then. But after the 2007/2008 housing crash, in order to make money in the residential market, you have to get in and out as fast as possible and with fewer people. My point (finally) plumbing trim crews might have 2 or 3 people, but usually, each one is on a separate task. Installing the wax ring on the toilet first would probably be as reliable as on the flange "IF" you did it with two people, but by yourself? But alone, I would be wondering if it was on the flange correctly, and then getting a call in a few months to come fix it and also pay for the water damage. When it's on the flange, you can use the bolts as a guide. Most of the time, you can keep the ring in place by pushing the bolts into the wax a little bit. If another ring is needed, you'll know. The other way, you will be guessing, did it fall off or slide, or am I on the flange right. Sorry, things keep popping into my head as I'm typing this. But to be honest, I see no benefits of putting it on the toilet. Lastly, why come on here and somewhat discredit the information. I can see if you asked his opinion, but basically telling him he's doing it wrong or isn't doing it the best way is kinda rude for the amount of good information he has to offer on this channel.

[@robertm1672]

Sure, they work fine in a majority of situations, HOWEVER, that requires an assumption. He's not talking about the perfect situation. He's also talking about a "better" / different solution, especially when there's been adjustments, modifications post inital install. New flooring install was an example. And let's be real, wax rings are about as nasty as they come when doing toilet work! Unless of course a person doesn't mind all that built up fecal sludge and slime when doing renovation/repairs typical of home servicing that comes up time to time. My home for instance, in a 10 year span, required the removal of the toilet multiple times. Removal of preexisting flooring. Ain't down with carpet. Changed toilet 2x. Busted water pipe requiring new flooring and substrate. Toilet removal due to toilet shift time/wood flex, breakdown of wax ring. Bacteria and common household cleaning products will eventually degrade the seal and can end up with leaks, whereas plastics are generally immune to it all.

​@daveb2177 thank you for providing your logical common sense.

[@ggrraanntt420]

such a great video. explanation was bang on! I'm a carpenter, who struggles to believe in himself so it is always nice to have such great videos to have reassurance that I am following the right path and steps! Thanks soo much. I've done this before without watching videos with no problems. just nice to have that security knowing I'm not missing anything!

[@Zer0FuXGiv3n]

Okay I know you're just a weekend guy but we have terminology for these things that little thing that you hold in your hand that holds the wax ring in place, we call that a flange. Next up that little bend to keep the stink out as you put it it's called a p-trap or vapor lock. And a toilet actually has a built-in trap. If you look at the lower rear portion of any toilet you'll notice it has a tube. There's your trap. In essence the perfect seal is an idiot proof wax ring. From a full timer, have a great weekend.

[@caiobabe]

Agree 100% Let's get the terminology correct which helps the "do it yourselfer" understand and can aid when describing issues to a real plumber, if needed. I'm a GC having set dozens and dozens of bowls using reinforced wax rings without ever one leak.

[@curtisaitken7027]

In the construction of a toilet, the P-trap is designed into the toilet. The wax ring is meant to prevent gasses and fluid/solid from leaking if there is a blockage/malfunction beyond the subfloor plumbing.

[@KeithsTVHD1]

This is true because I have a mainline that exits water out of the house that is blocked and the wax ring prevents any water from leaking under the toilet.

[@marisakennedy777]

I like having both quick videos and in-depth tuts that cover many of the things that can come up in a project like this. The 101 Basics to get the overall idea of a most common simplest scenerio and the Master Class of all the tricks and know-how of an experienced plumber. Nice vid!

[@Audace1400]

Used this when I was in a pinch and pulled a toilet out and saw the flange was at least 1/2 below floor level. The blue seal helped make up the extra height needed. The inner diameter maybe a little too small as noted by other comments. Will see how it goes. I think they should have the inner black ring extend down into the flange a little deeper like normal wax rings do.

[@tylergallagher889]

thank you... thank you for the tip. this is very helpful. my toilet was leaking since 2017 at the time, i replaced the flange but i used just a regular wax. we recently just had a termite inspection and he told me that there's a leak under the toilet. i was afraid it was a cracked pipe until i crawl under and noticed the leak was coming from the lip of the flange. i saw your video and also used the danko seal. now i can comfortably sleep at night knowing the leak will no longer be there. 😉

[@paulcrescenti5581]

I can’t believe I watched the whole video! That said, you have convinced me to use the Danco product next time I set or reset a toilet. Great explanation of its advantages.

[@ZeroCarbDaddy]

The good thing about foam rings is that sometimes they can be reused. Versus the wax ring is a one time use. This has both and as long as the rubber is in good shape and the wax is still bonded to the bottom you can reuse this ring. Great product. There are also other foam rings out there find what works for you but this one is hard to beat.

[@asiabacus3411]

My kids’ dad remodeled our half bath and used the perfect seal a few months ago. I found it leaking today. Took up the toilet, and the blue part was squished and bent in such a way that was allowing water to leak…going to try a regular wax ring now.

[@AlkalineInsides]

How did it go? Which direction did you go in? I’m having a hard time deciding between the wax and danco. At first I was thinking “Better Than Wax”. But danco is calling my name more than that one. My flange sits just about where yours does

[@mae2759]

This was great for my application. My floor around my toilet is not level. Big hump on the right side and the back left corner slopes away. Almost impossible for the toilet to sit flush on the flange and be level without shimming. I replaced my original toilet with a new toilet a year or two ago and used a standard wax ring. I decided to install it flush on the flange and leave it unlevel. Great seal, but you could tell the toilet wasn't level when you sat on it. The other day we put new flooring in, so we had to pull the toilet. Used a standard wax ring again and decided to level it this time. With all of the rocking and lifting to level it, I must have broken the wax seal and it leaked. I decided to give this one a try. This was great for when I was shimming the toilet level, since no matter how much I lifted and repositioned the toilet, the rubber gasket will still be sealed on the toilet. My flange (looks like a repair flange) sits at least 1/4 inch above the floor, so I took out the blue extender and took out the black insert before even trying it once. Seems to have worked so far!

[@garypear9133]

Why didn't you level the floor when you were doing the flooring

[@mae2759]

@@garypear9133 I tried with some floor leveling compound but I wasn't getting anywhere with it. It was really out of level. I'm not the best at doing that anyway. I gave it a try and only made it worse as I kept doing it. Was hard to keep it smooth and level it as I was building up certain sections so I just said F it. Lol. Makes me appreciate concrete finishers that much more.

[@lym3204]

I knew about taking off the blue extender if the flange is flush or above the floor but did not realize there was a removable black insert until I read your message. According to a Perfect Seal video I saw if your toilet is not flush to the floor, I.E. rocking on the floor you remove the black insert. This will give more flexibility if your flange is point diagonally instead of perfectly vertical. Because I think most people will at least shim the toilet to be horizontal with a level and to prevent rocking in its final form.

[@FM19MONTH]

New homeowner having to replace seal solidifies what a shxtty job mass home builders do --- cut corners, terrible employees who do bad jobs because they do not care aka no work ethic and/or not trained / work not inspected. Country performance in building sucks in so many ways it ain't funny. This is just out toilets. Think of our bridges and buildings.... not like work ethic is different all of a sudden Thing is developers / builders don't have to care - they get big corporate protection w lawyers who we cannot afford to fight. As a 70+ year old, I have been replacing toilet fixtures and wax rings in all my toilets. To see the shxt jobs that were done when installing flanges is nauseating. I am properly replacing my fourth and last flange today in prep to sell house. My work should last 30+ years for buyer. I have to be able to tell the new buyer what has been completed for them. I have integrity.

[@govinda102000]

Danco worked well so far. My flange is flush with the floor so I had to remove the inner black ring from the wax section. I would have liked to have mounted the blue spout directly to the toilet but couldn't get it to stretch enough. Hopefully it will hold.

[@tomlangley6236]

Stick with the tried and true Wax ring. Ive seen the Danco type rings fail more often than not. I had a DYI customer a couple of months ago call me about a broken toilet base where he had tried over tightening the base to get it flush with the floor because the Danco was too thick to compress all the way. A brand new toilet destroyed.

[@tonyhwang3888]

Danco is sort of hybrid type having wax ring too. DIY or not one has to know what(s)he is doing.

[@packetattack7437]

That's an installer error. If the DIY'er tightened the bolts down to get it to compress. Danco instructions clearly say to remove the rings if the toilet won't sit flush.

[@gregbernard4466]

Korky is an American company and they make multiple "rubber parts" in the one product that you get at Home Depot. The "wax ring" seals air from the sewer. The water goes down because of gravity. Maybe the "wax ring" prevents splashing water but they have all usually have a plastic "horn" that goes into the pipe. Saniseal is one size but Korky gives you several thicknesses in one package and no slimy disgusting wax.

[@manuelquicho7695]

[@freedombuy4672]

[@freddyrosenberg9288]

The solution is a reinforced wax seal which I have used for may years. The Danco requires a lot of room or even a recessed flange for it to work. I had an installation where the toilet was 3/4" above the floor and we could not get it to come down any further because of the Danco extra height. Danco does not work for all toilets or applications.

[@pro7070]

Yes the flange needs to be flush or slightly recessed from finished floor.

[@jeffreywolf5235]

Those foam rubber ones are very temperamental is what I found. I'm going to have to research those reinforced ones because I have a toilet that just will not stop leaking no matter what. I have a very sneaky suspicion that is the actual pipe and clamping system that the plumbers that came in sometime before I get there put in in the basement.

[@Will_b83]

@@jeffreywolf5235 double up on your regular wax rings…if that doesn’t work you might have other issues.

[@jeffreywolf5235]

@@Will_b83 it's something else. I have tried doubling up I have tried five or six different wax seals. Total nightmare. I think it's got to be the pipe underneath and the toilet at fault. For some reason even when it's not even been sat on used or anything while I'm just testing it the water pillows out the back after two or three flushes I lift it up it's hard to pull off the floor because there's wax on the bottom of the bowl and on the flange but it looks like it's getting across the top of the flange or possibly the bottom of the toilet ot somehow. It doesn't make any sense. I've done hundreds of toilets in the last 30 years and never seen anything like this. I've come across destroyed flanges and all kinds of subfloor rot but never a week that wouldn't stop. And this is after about four or five plumbers came in before I did.

[@Will_b83]

@@jeffreywolf5235 the only way to know for certain man. Would be to pull the toilet run a test ball down the closet and run a hydrostatic test. If there is an issue this will tell you where…also on one that give me issues, I’ll use food coloring with my test to see where that water is going.

[@mikemmikem2758]

After doing a lot of research and speaking with LICENSED plumbers I have decided not to install anything but wax rings for my new toilet. I like the technology of the Danco type products but the simplicity and durability of wax rings changed my mind for me. My installer had some pictures of failures of the 'danco' type and that was enough for me. He said the problem with these is that they must be installed perfectly and at the proper height based on the flange level. He used 2 wax rings on the toilet and when he sat the toilet you could hear and feel how tight it was. The last thing about wax seals is when they wear out you don't have to wonder what's wrong when water leaks from the toilet. Our house was built in 1965 and the wax rings still worked when we remodeled in 2010.

The foam ring is less messy than the wax ring that deforms, sticks to everything and is hard to clean out when replacing. The problem with the foam ring is that many times it is too high and makes the toilet rock front to back.

I used two wax rings in an old house one time. The drain pipe was cast iron pipe. It went down from the bowl, turned, went to the block wall. It turned again, went down, and turned through the wall. It was leaded together and really solid. The trouble was the connecting flange. It was not level with the floor. There must have been 1/4" difference across the flange. Short of tearing out the old cast pipe, what could I do? I did tear up the floor around the bowl and put in new floor with reinforcement. It worked well for years and was still working when I sold the place. I bet the majority of leaking bowls are caused by old unstable flooring. Of course a lot of the flooring gets this way from leaking bowls. You should check this before even reinstalling the ring.
