    Offset flange sets to high and commode won't took floor by couple of inches
    Installing new commode and was using an offset flange but it sets to high to install commode. Is there a low profile flange that is same hight as standard flange?

    You will need to cut the old pipe lower to install the offset type.

    What happened to the old flange ? Was it off-set flange, too ? Old commode fit OK and new one won't ?

    There may be another solution to this. Post few photos from the installation showing pipe and old flange. Thank you
