rough-in toilet

A **rough-in toilet** refers to the distance between the wall behind the toilet and the center of the floor drainpipe (or outlet). This measurement is crucial when installing or replacing a toilet to ensure proper fit and function. Standard rough-in sizes typically range from 10 to 14 inches, with 12 inches being the most common. Understanding your bathroom’s rough-in size helps in selecting the right toilet model, avoiding costly adjustments, and ensuring a smooth installation process.
