Abstract
A toilet conversion kit for toilets of various shapes, the kit having a base which can stand on the floor around a soil pipe and an upper surface for supporting the toilet, and having first and second end wall profiles. An elongated axial opening extends from a point adjacent one end, for a distance along the length of the base, and can register with the soil pipe. There are a plurality of fastening openings in, the base alongside either side of the opening. A soil pipe extension separate from the base, defines a generally tubular shape having upper and lower ends, a soil pipe connection at its lower end, a toilet connection member at its upper end, and fastenings formed with the upper end of which can be fastened to the fastenings of the base. The upper end of the extensions interfits with the elongated opening in the base. In this way the soil pipe extension may be moved along the length of the opening, and fastened to the base at selected locations therealong, so that the toilet conversion kit can be used with a wide variety of a different toilet appliance designs, with one end profile of the base conforming as closely as possible to the shape of the stand of the toilet appliance.
