Standard toilet height is around 14 1/2" from the floor to the bowl rim, without a toilet seat. However, toilet bowl height has increased in recent years for the benefit of taller people, those with physical handicaps and/or the elderly. The newest and most popular floor-to-bowl rim height is typically around 16 1/8". Toilets that comply with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) requirements must have a 17" to 19" floor-to-bowl rim height, including the seat. You should also consider the toilet rough-in from the wall, which is commonly 12". Other rough-ins in older homes can be 10" or 14". This is important as many toilet models are available in 12" rough-in, but if you have a unique rough-in (10" or 14"), your selection may be limited. Of course, Sterling offers toilets in many styles, rough-ins and heights for most any installation. Sterling manufactures toilets with 10", 12" and 14" rough-in sizes. In order to determine your rough-in dimension, please measure from the center of your toilet bolt holes to your finished wall.

Most of our toilets are manufactured to accommodate a 12" rough-in model toilet. If, however, you find yourself in a situation where you do not have enough space to install your tank onto your bowl because the wall is in the way, the solution is our 10" rough-in toilet. Alternately, if you feel as if your toilet is sitting in the middle of your bathroom because you have a gaping space between the back of your tank and the wall, a 14" rough-in toilet may be a better choice. Show All Toilets FAQs << How to Install Rough-in Plumbing for a Bathroom, Part 2 In the first and second part of this series of rough-in plumbing your restroom renovation, you learned how to plan the project and begin installing fixtures for the tub and shower. Now, in “How to Install Rough-In Plumbing for a Bathroom, Part 3,” you can follow the directions below to begin installing the plumbing for your toilet and sink. Since the plumbing should mostly be done, in the form of supply lines and water pipes, installing the toilet and sink is easy.

With the rough plumbing already positioned, measure out 12 inches from the wall to the center of the drain hole for the toilet. Then, secure the toilet flange to the subfloor of the bathroom with 3-inch galvanized screws. Connect the ABS elbow to the toilet flange. The ABS elbow should be 3 inches in diameter, and it should have a 90-degree angle. Using a 1 1/4 inch polyvinyl chloride pipe, or PVC pipe, locate a vent no farther than 5 inches away from the flange. This will travel inside the finished wall. Leave room in this vent for connecting to the vanity and tub. Using copper piping, install the cold-water supply. Bring the PVC pipe up to 9 1/4 inches above the floor. Then, install a water shut-off valve and a 3/8 inch compression fitting for the flexible pipe to the toilet about 6 inches away from where the toilet will be installed. There are two types of sinks that you can use in your bathroom: a drop-in sink or a pedestal sink. A drop-in sink should have a drain that is in the center of the sink and goes to 18 inches above the floor.

Use a 1 1/2 inch hub to fit to the 1 1/4 inch drain pipe in the wall. Assemble a PVC P-trap and a cleanout underneath the drainpipe to make it easy to clean out any clogs in the future. When finished, you should have made a 1 1/4 inch drainpipe that goes between the waste pipe and the sink. Using copper supply lines from the hot and cold pipes already in position, make sure the lines are center with the sink faucet and at least 21 inches from the floor. Place 3/8 inch compression fittings on the ends to connect them to the faucet handles. With a pedestal sink, you must bring the waste-water pipe directly underneath the sink itself. Bring the rough plumbing up to 18 1/2 inches off the floor, and center it with the sink’s drain. Remember to keep all of the P-Traps and cleanouts close to the drain to keep them hidden within the pedestal. Bring water-supply tubes up from the wall at a right angle and 18 inches off the floor. Fit it with a 3/8 inch compression fitting on the end.
