I will NEVER have another wall mounted toilet. They are one continuous leak waiting to happen. I installed them in this house when we moved in. I framed the walls with 2x6 studs for good support. That was not good enough. They would wiggle at the wall and the seal would eventually leak. That was using the good foam/rubber seals.

Think about it. The front of the toilet is 30 inches from the wall. When you lean forward to finish business you are on the front edge of the toilet. I weight between 250-290 lbs. (Depends on the meds I am on.) That weight makes the toilet flex the wall mount.

The only one I have left is over a slab. It would take a lot of work to change it to a floor mount. I built a steel angle iron frame to hook the toilet frame too. My frame goes clear to the ceiling for additional support. So far it has not leaked.

As far as your sewer line going through an unheated area. It will be fine. The water is in it for a short period of time. It will not freeze.

Get the slope right. YOU do not want it too steep. The ones I installed have one inch of fall for every 10 foot of run. This is what several plumbing book recommended. If you have it too steep the liquids flow away from the solids too fast. Leaving the solids behind. If you need more drop in the distance you are going do it all at once. I mean 90 degree down and 90 degree back to grade. This is actually good as it will remix the solids and liquids.

Today's Featured Article - An Old-Time Tractor Demonstration - by Kim Pratt. Sam was born in rural Kansas in 1926. His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership, ... [Read Article]
