  1. Do not use a wax ring. That’s old school, and you only get one shot. Get the fluid master. You can stack them and you do not have to worry about readjusting the toilet. Trust me, I just had to do it.

  2. As a millennial, I am so glad videos like these exist. Unless the previous generation teaches us how to do things like these, we'll never get it done.

    Also, instructions unclear, got dick stuck in wax ring.

  3. If it is caulked, the thinking is that if the toilet flange leaks, you'll end up trapping water between the toilet base and the floor in an area that you can't access. In reality, toilets rarely leak onto the floor. More often, they leak through the floor around the flange. Caulk prevents a fouling area, and should always be done.
