And yes it actually does have to do with the toilet you chose.
Toilet tank too close to wall tile.
Add a rectangle of 3 4 plywood against the back of opposite rooms drywall.
I would never attempt to install the pipe that way and hope it would all come out properly in the end because.
Some brands have a tank that would be perhaps 2 thicker.
The framing could have been moved or boxed out.
The closet you can get would be a 14 rough toilet.
You determine the location of the toilet relative to the surrounding walls when you cut the hole in the floor for the flange which is the fitting that connects the toilet to the waste line.
Create an alcove behind the commode by removing the drywall and studs to a height and width that will clear the tank.
Beat on the wall to get the room to get it to fit or loosen the bolts in the bottom of the tank and slide it to one side.
You must have a 15 rough.
As a result when the toilet was seated by the plumbing contractors it turned out to be too close to one of the side walls.
There s a way to move your toilet if it s too close to the wall.
They built the walls in a friend s bathroom too close to the waste stack pipe in the floor.
The toilets were installed too close to the walls.
It was uncomfortably tight.
Reframe it as if it were a low doorway.
The distance from the back wall to the flange is based on the toilet design while the clearances to side and front walls are set by the local building code.
However now one of the tanks has started to do a slow drip.
Even if you were to switch brands and use a 2 offset it would still be away from the wall.
Sometimes building contractors make mistakes.
The toilet tanks are right against the wall and there hasn t been a problem.
The space between your tank and wall is not your contractor s fault it s too bad they just don t communicate these issues with homeowners.
I would install a cabinet on the wall behind the toilet then.
