Does anyone know how well Fernco waxless toilet seals work?

How long can you expect them to last?

Haven't heard anything good about them. Just for a minute...think about how long wax seals have been around. Thats because they WORK. Lot's of people trying to build that better mousetrap. Your choice but...I will always go with the wax seal. Good luck whichever way you go.

Correct.



They are not code approved either.

Forgot to mention...I stole the "mousetrap" quote from Dunbar Plumber.

Here the wax rings with the plactic horns on them are not code approved, use plain wax only.
