New Toilet Purchase Checklist

If you’re in the market for a new toilet, you’re going to need some items before you can put in a new fixture. To make sure you’ve got all the items you need, follow our new toilet purchase checklist.
  • Naturally, your new toilet purchase will include a new fixture. However, keep in mind that unless you’re buying one of the newer one-piece models, you’re going to have to purchase a bowl as well as a tank.
  • Most tanks will come with an installed flush valve assembly, but double check that this comes with your tank when you make your new toilet purchase.
  • Get new closet bolts to secure your new toilet to the bathroom floor.
  • You’ll need a wax gasket for the base of the bowl.
  • If the toilet seat is not included, make sure you purchase this as well.
  • If you plan on replacing the supply line, the best ones are flexible, encased in a stainless steel mesh – for both appearance and ease of use. You can purchase a plastic supply line to save money and if local building codes allow it.
