How Do We Properly Disassemble the Toilet?

If the bathroom toilet has a serious failure due to long-term use, it must be removed correctly in order to repair the toilet or replace it with a new one. If the toilet is not removed correctly, it will not only cause damage to the old toilet but also damage the structure of the household water pipe. The followings are the steps and precautions for removing the toilet.

1. First check the old wc toilet for cracks. Please pay special attention to the place where you want to lift the toilet. Because the toilet is made of ceramics, it is easy to cut your hands, so you should wear thick work gloves when moving the toilet.

2. Remove the water tank cover, and take the cover to a place where it will not be touched.

3. Turn off the water source, the position of the water valve is on the left side of the toilet.

4. Wash away the water in the water tank, press the flush handle and don't let it go, let the water run out completely. Put on rubber gloves and use a sponge or towel to dry the water that has not yet drained from the water tank.

5. Remove the connected water pipe from the toilet and pour the excess water into the bucket. Connect the water tank to the toilet seat.

6. Remove the nut and the fixing bolt. Sometimes the bolts will turn, so use a hacksaw to cut the bolts. You can buy a single-handle saw, which is convenient for use in small work areas.

7. If your bathroom toilet seat is glued to the floor with caulking glue, please use a utility knife to cut the sealant.

8. Gently shake the toilet, remove the sealant stuck to the bottom of the toilet, and place the removed old toilet where it will not interfere with work.

9. Plug the drainpipe with a cloth to prevent the gas from the sewer from escaping. Finally, use a putty knife to scrape off the old sealant on the flange and the floor.

(1) When the bathroom toilet is removed or replaced, the water pipe of the toilet must be waterproofed, because the original waterproof layer is likely to be damaged when the old toilet is removed. Therefore, if you want to replace the toilet with a new one, you must make a waterproof layer again.

(2) Before removing the toilet, first determine the specific type of drain pipe under the toilet to avoid buying the wrong new toilet.
