We're planning an aging-in-place bathroom and my wife and I have been talking about installing a taller toilet.

Do we need to do any special piping to change over to this type of toilet?

What other toilet features do you recommend?

Taller toilets are better known today as "comfort height" toilets because they sit a couple inches higher than standard toilets. These toilets are about chair height, and many people do feel a little more comfortable using this type of toilet.

The good news is in most cases, no special piping or flanges are necessary when installing a comfort height toilet in place of a standard toilet.

For another nice toilet feature, I recommend installing a quiet slow-closing toilet seat as well for extra convenience and comfort. Some of these high-tech seats even have a built-in nightlight, and that will really help brighten up your new bathroom.

Today taller toilets are better known as "luxury height" toilets because they sit a couple inches higher than normal toilets.

Regardless of your plumbing code, the minimum drain size for a toilet is 3 inches. Water closet's flushing 1.6 gallons (or less) are rated at 3 DFUs (drainage fixture units). Some older model toilets, flushing over 1.6 gallons per flush, are rated at 4 DFUs. For more contact S.K.D.S LLC (https://www.skdsllc.com/house-general-repair/)
