I was forced to cut off a closet (toliet) flange and the 90 degree elbow to which it was glued due to damage to get to clean PVC drain pipe in good condition. The problem is where the elbow will turn up and at the point where the new flange and coupling is needed is very tight. The area is between ceiling joists. It does not appear that I can connect the flange, elbow and coupling in that area. Any ideas?? :eek:
... a sketch or photo of the arrangement uploaded so it is easier to determine if the joists can be modified?Quote:

Support the closet bend and cut the excess off at floor level and glue on the flange. If the area that the closet bend goes through the floor is tight then assemble and glue the bend and pipe and install them as one unit.
Sound like a plan? Cheers, Tom
Instead of the 90 degree elbow I was able to use a 45 degree elbow and a PVC closet flange with a built in 45 degree elbow and it was a perfect fit with room to move in the space. Thanks for the reply
