Microphor to Dometic My Take
Having the same coach as dsd, I followed Scott's thread on his change out that he posted Sept. 06, 2021. I knew that I had to get an offset flange, but when he described having to heat and bend the ABS pipe, I got concerned. I am a firm believer in " Murphy's Law", and put the remodel on "hold." Last month, I decided to give it a "go", With Scott's support, I tried bending ABS pipe 1 1/4", in addition to using the offset flange. I failed three times. Pipe would blister and not get soft, even after heating it for an hour. I started to panic. Then, I thought I would try just using the offset, alone. If it didn't allow for the 11" Dometic said I needed, I was prepared to "inset" the cabinet that is behind the toilet. It would not be a big deal for me. I dry fitted the new flange, installed T bolts,and the toilet sat perfectly. The bolts measured 10 1/2" from the cabinet to the center of the bolts. I then had to rework the existing hole, which I had elongated, in order to secure the flange properly. I " cut in" new 3/8" wood. I then installed 1/4" underlayment for our new VCT ( tile) I will be installing. I beveled the end of the down pipe, used some plumbers grease, and it slid right in. I then, retested the fit of the new toilet. Fit perfectly.
Soooo......Sven, if you are reading this, I would say it wasn't exactly an easy job, but you may get away with using just the offset flange. There are metal beams that run both directions, very close to the spot you are trying to move to. I didn't have any issues with them. Feel free to contact me if you need any more info. I will upload some pictures. They are on my phone, but not on this I pad. I will try, later.
