ABSTRACT:
A street compression closet flange for replacing broken cast iron closet flanges in old buildings comprises an upper cylindrical section, a lower cylindrical section, a rubber seal, and three sets of nuts and bolts. After the broken closet flange has been removed, the street flange is inserted inside the existing pipe. A compression seal if formed between the street flange and the inside of the pipe by tightening the nuts and bolts. The street flange may be slid up or down to achieve the desired height. The street flange may also be used in new building construction instead of conventional closet flanges.
