How to Unpack a New Toilet

My name is Jeff Pence and I am here today with Bob Street with Houdini Home Improvement in Lebanon, Ohio on behalf of Expert Village. In this clip, we are going to show you how to unpack the toilet and go over some of the parts that are going to be included in the box. As we see, this one comes with a toilet seat. So Bob tell us a little more about this. This is a complete commode in a box. A toilet to go. It's got everything from wax ring, the bolts, the seat, the tank and usually you've got to put the tank and the bowl together which is what we are going to do here today. Is all of the hardware in the tank? Well it should be. We are going to check that first before we progress much further to make sure we've got everything that we need today. Here we go. This kit comes complete with the wax ring included so you will need this when attaching to the sewer pipe. There we go. Looks like we have our bolts, wax ring and we prefer to use a wax ring with a plastic cone. Let's see how our porcelain looks. Check for cracks just in case. Cracks and chips from shipping. Be sure to take your time and inspect it carefully and make sure there are no cracks and scratches on the porcelain so you can take it back to the store for a refund exchange. There's all of our bolts, fittings. I think we are ready to put this one together.
