Any tips on getting the new mounting stud flanges back under the floor flange? Not too hard getting out.

The toilet fits on existing hardware just screw back in. My old toilet had similar set up so I didn't have your issue

If the flange is slotted you turn the bolt to slide in and then turn them so as not to come threw the flange.In my case the flange was broken on one side and I used lag bolts to attach the base to the floor.Be cautious and do not over tighten and crack the base of the toilet.

Use the provided magnets. Sounds like you didn't mount them on the door when you assembled the item.

The bolts are at 3 and 9, but my recollection is that the flange on the floor has a rotating ring that the bolt heads fit into. You should be able to rotate the ring from the 11 and 5 configuration to a 3 and 9.

That is correct. Just locate your studs/floor joists and that is all you need to do. Well worth the money. You won't be disappointed

Just put a box wrench (not adjustable) on it and it should come out - Mine was installed in '97 and I first removed it a only couple years ago you may try PB Blaster penetrating oil - let it soak for a couple hours - that stuff works wondersremember to clean it (PB) all off before reassembly unless you want to taste PB for a whileHere's another tip - put a small amount of silicon grease on the threads when you put it back together (also for any other plumbing jobs) - that makes it much easier next time around.

We are not having either of those issues... we installed two of these in our home... one in the powder room and one in the guest bath... it has been almost 1 year and no issues at all. Maybe the flange needs to be cut down?

No. What I did was took this piece and inserted it into the original piece. Cut a piece of sheetmetal and drilled the center hole to fit water fitting. Siliconed the flange, and screwed the new flange thru the old one and caught the sheetmetal. Done. Sounds like its hard. Took me 1/2 hour.

you have to unscrew the top part from the base, once the top is removed you will see a hole in the center of the base.screw the base to the floor then screw the top back on .

I had a similar issue. I ended up drilling the hole a little larger and used a butterfly/toggle bolt. It pulled up tight and has been working well for about 6 months.

I have had this same thing happen to me after only ONE WEEK! Same answer.....tighten spring, re-install. This issue gives you an impression that these units are not made well!

Oh shucks, wrong response. We had to replace the entire metal piece in the wall. I don't know the name of it but the handles have the plastic retrofit screwed in. You will need to replace the entire brass piece.

Pop the register cover off ( there is a slot for a screwdriver at the top front above the louvers ). There are pre-drilled screw holes for both wall and floor. If these do not line up with your studs, or you do not want to use anchors for the wall screws, simply drill new holes. I used 1 inch drywall screws for the floor holes, and 2 inch drywall screws for the wall holes.

I had to borrow a bolt cutter to remove them, and they fell into the cavity below, which is fine. My screws were frozen in place. Once I got them out, installing new ones with the kit was easy. I tried buying anchors in a local hardware store, but I couldn't find the right size.

It sounds like the screw didn't go far enough into the floor. I would first try and use pliers to see if you can snap it off a little more. If not, you will need to remove it and do it again. Is this the only screw that this happened to?

Had the same issue. I just found the edges of the stud and made sure both screws weren't to close to the edges.

Same thing happened to me and you can just replace the housing! It's really easy! I think there was just 2-4 bolts connecting the two!

Hello. Try using either foil tape or, if you want to be able to take it down and reinstall on a regular basis, use wide rubberized clamps which seal the openings between the lint trap and duct. Try searching for FC4 mounting clamp for round 4" Duct (Pair). Good luck.
