Why Professional Toilet Installation is Non-Negotiable

While a toilet installation might seem straightforward, it is a task where precision is paramount. The long-term health of your bathroom floor, plumbing system, and even your water bill depends on it being done correctly. A small mistake can have significant consequences.

• Preventing Costly Water Damage: The most critical component in a toilet installation is the seal between the toilet base and the drainpipe, typically formed by a wax ring. If this seal is not set perfectly, it can cause slow, silent leaks that go unnoticed for months. This water can saturate your subfloor, rot the wood, and lead to expensive structural repairs and mold growth. Our technicians ensure the flange is in good condition and the new seal is set perfectly to create a watertight barrier.
• Ensuring Stability and Longevity: A toilet that rocks or wobbles is more than an annoyance; it's a sign of a problem. It could mean the bolts are loose, or worse, that the flange itself is broken or the subfloor is compromised. We address these underlying issues before setting the new toilet, tightening it securely without over-torquing the bolts, which could crack the porcelain. This ensures the unit remains stable and secure for its entire lifespan.
• Guaranteeing Water Efficiency: Modern high-efficiency toilets use significantly less water than older models, saving you money on every flush. However, these savings are only realized if the tank components are calibrated correctly. Our team ensures the fill valve, flapper, and water levels are all set to the manufacturer's specifications for optimal performance and water conservation.

Types of Toilets for Your Home

The right toilet can enhance your bathroom's style, improve comfort, and reduce your environmental footprint. At Aelott Air Conditioning, we have the expertise to install any type of toilet you choose for your home.

1. Two-Piece Toilets: The most common and traditional style, featuring a separate tank and bowl. They are versatile and cost-effective.
2. One-Piece Toilets: These models integrate the tank and bowl into a single, seamless unit. They are often easier to clean due to the lack of a gap and offer a sleek, modern look.
3. High-Efficiency Toilets (HETs): Designed to conserve water, HETs use 1.28 gallons per flush or less, significantly reducing your home's water consumption compared to older models that can use 3.5 to 5 gallons.
4. Dual-Flush Toilets: Offering two flush options—a partial flush for liquid waste and a full flush for solid waste—these toilets provide maximum water-saving potential.
5. Comfort Height Toilets: Also known as "right height" or "ADA-compliant" toilets, these models have a taller bowl height (17-19 inches) that makes sitting down and standing up easier, ideal for taller individuals or those with mobility challenges.
6. Smart Toilets and Bidet Seats: We can install advanced smart toilets with features like heated seats, automatic flushing, and integrated bidets, as well as add-on bidet seats to existing or new toilets for enhanced hygiene.
   1. Preparation and Old Toilet Removal: We begin by shutting off the water supply and thoroughly draining the old toilet tank and bowl. The area is protected to prevent any water spillage. We then carefully disconnect the water line and unbolt the old unit from the floor, removing it for responsible disposal.
   2. Flange and Subfloor Inspection: With the old toilet removed, we have a clear view of the drainpipe and the toilet flange. This is a critical inspection point. We check the flange for cracks or damage and ensure it is securely attached to the subfloor. We also assess the condition of the surrounding floor for any signs of past leaks or water damage.
   3. New Seal and Toilet Placement: We clean the area and install a new, high-quality wax ring or modern wax-free seal onto the flange. This component is crucial for a leak-proof connection. The new toilet is then carefully lowered straight down onto the seal, with the bolts guided through the holes in the base. We press down firmly to set the seal and ensure the toilet is perfectly level.
   4. Securing the Unit and Connecting Water: The toilet is secured to the floor using new bolts, washers, and nuts, tightened evenly to prevent wobbling or cracking the base. We then connect the new, flexible water supply line from the shutoff valve to the toilet tank, ensuring a tight but not over-tightened connection.
   5. Testing and Final Adjustments: Once everything is connected, we slowly turn the water supply back on and allow the tank to fill. We meticulously inspect every connection point—the supply line, the tank-to-bowl bolts, and the base seal—for any signs of leaks. We flush the toilet multiple times to test its mechanics and confirm a strong, clean flush.
   6. Cleanup and Walk-Through: Our job isn't finished until your space is clean. We wipe down the new toilet, clean the work area, and conduct a final walk-through with you to ensure you are completely satisfied with the installation and performance of your new fixture.
