I have two, new toilets on order. In anticipation, I went to Home
Depot this morning to get some wax rings for the installation. I
figured, easy enough. Just buy a couple of wax rings and off you go.
Holy Mackerel! There are more types of toilet rings than candy bars!
Some have no wax at all. Some have various kinds of vinyl rings.
Some have bolts. Some don't. Some are thin. Some are thick. How in
the heck do you decided which type to use? Many of them were made by
the same manufacturer. The non-wax sound good, but looks like they
may restrict the opening. What's the word on toilet rings?


Newer non-wax are good, old wax are still good, too. Have heard of a
couple of instances where a portable heater was set too close to the
stool and melted the wax--a non-wax one would alleviate that.

As for your particular toilets, the dimensions for them will be w/ them
or available from the distributor's literature...
