Setup and Installation

Follow these steps for proper installation of the urinal flange kit:

This image displays the main components of the PROFLO PFPHUFK kit: the white PVC horizontal hub urinal flange, the black foam rubber gasket, and two stainless steel bolts with nuts and washers.

1. Preparation: Ensure the urinal drain pipe is clean and free of debris. Turn off the water supply to the urinal.
2. Gasket Placement: Place the thick foam rubber gasket onto the base of the urinal flange. Ensure it is seated correctly and forms a complete seal around the flange opening.
3. Flange Positioning: Insert the PVC flange into the urinal drain opening. The horizontal hub design allows for adjustment to align with the urinal's mounting holes. Position the flange so its slots align with where the urinal will be mounted.
4. Urinal Installation: Carefully lower the urinal onto the flange, aligning the urinal's mounting holes with the slots on the flange. Ensure the gasket creates a tight seal between the urinal and the flange.
5. Secure with Bolts: Insert the stainless steel bolts through the urinal's mounting holes and the flange slots. Secure with the stainless steel washers and nuts. Tighten evenly to create a firm, leak-proof connection. Do not overtighten to avoid cracking the urinal or flange.
6. Water Supply: Once the urinal is securely mounted, turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks around the flange connection.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and performance of your urinal flange kit:

• Regular Cleaning: Clean the exterior of the flange and urinal regularly with mild, non-abrasive cleaners. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the PVC or gasket material.
• Leak Checks: Periodically inspect the connection points for any signs of leaks. If a minor leak is detected, gently tighten the bolts. If leaks persist, the gasket may need inspection or replacement.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use harsh chemical drain cleaners or abrasive tools that could damage the PVC material or the gasket, compromising the seal.

Troubleshooting

Address common issues with your urinal flange kit:

• Leakage at Flange Base:
  • Ensure the foam rubber gasket is properly seated and not damaged.
  • Check that the bolts are tightened evenly and sufficiently. If leaks persist after tightening, the gasket may need to be replaced.
• Urinal Not Level:
  • Verify that the flange is installed correctly and the urinal is properly aligned. The horizontal adjustability of the flange should allow for minor adjustments.
  • Ensure the floor surface beneath the urinal is level. Shims may be required if the floor is uneven.
