  Can Choosing The Wrong Size Cause Any Issues?

  Yes, if you choose the wrong thickness of the ring size, there can be several issues that you will face with your toilet.

  One of the major issues that you will face is the toilet leaking due to the wrong wax size.

  When you use a regular wax ring in place of a double-thick wax ring, you will have this issue of leaking. When you use a regular wax ring, it leaves some space from where the toilet starts leaking.

  On the other hand, if you try to use a double-thick wax ring in place of a regular one, you won’t be able to fit it in the first place.

  So, there is no point in getting a double-thick wax ring where you should be using regular wax rings.

  Key Considerations Comparing Wax Ring Types

  • Check floor levelness under installation area before deciding between standard and thick rings.
  • Consider flange height carefully relative to the toilet base to ensure correct wax thickness.
  • Remove all old wax, bolts, and debris under existing toilets to allow proper seating of new ring.
  • Extra thick rings often have size options to match different flange heights and toilet types.
  • The added cost of reinforced rings can avoid much greater expense from leaks causing subfloor damage.
  • Take care installing extra thick rings to keep the wax soft and pliable as needed for maximum sealing.
  • Combining thick wax rings with rubber gaskets provides added insurance against leaks on uneven surfaces.
  • Test toilet stability and re-set if any rocking occurs after installing thicker wax seals.

  Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  Here are some questions that a lot of people ask regarding the different wax ring types –

  When should you use an extra-thick wax ring?

  You will need to use an extra-thick wax ring whenever you are dealing with a flange that is on the floor level or maybe a bit below or deeper to the floor level. Anything below ¼” should clearly indicate using an extra thick wax ring.

  Sometimes the wax rings you will need for sealing your toilet will be extra thick because of the extra space they have to cover. Without the extra thick layer of the wax rings, you can’t cover up the larger toilet flanges properly. This may even result in your toilet leaking at some point. That’s some wax rings extra thick.

  To find out the size of the wax ring that you should be using, you will need to check up on your toilet bowl. Turn it upside down and see the opening on the lower part of your toilet. Based on that, you will need to determine the wax ring size.

  Yes, you can use two regular wax rings instead of using one extra thick wax ring. However, that won’t be the most efficient way to seal your toilet because there will still be a chance of leakage around it. If your toilet requires a double-thick wax ring, I recommend going for that instead of using two regular wax rings.

  

  Cutting Board Care

  Maintaining a cutting board is a quick and easy task that will keep your board sanitary, looking new and extend the life of your board. The most common question we receive each week at CuttingBoard.com is “How do I maintain my cutting board?”, so we’ve put together this short set of instructions to help you out.

  DO NOT:

  • Put the board in the dishwasher. The heat and water will warp and splinter the wood AND void warranties from most manufacturers. Only plastic, composite or glass boards can go into the dishwasher.
  • Dunk or let the board in stand in water. The wood will absorb water and potentially warp.
  • Use bleach. This will stain the wood and/or excessively dry the wood.
  • Put a wet board flat to dry. If the board dries on one side, it will cause the wood to warp.

  If your board has stains or smells, you can use lemon juice or white vinegar directly on the area. The acid in these liquids will neutralize the organic material or fats causing the problem.
