Well that’s true, but something like this which looks to be laid by craftsmen we rarely see these days, covering it would almost be a crime. I also know that each condition on the job site can be treated differently and still have successful results.

I just checked the Toto Drake II Toilet, it looks like the hole is oval. It's harder to pump on oval holes since the pump is round and can't fully seal the hole. Do you have a special oval pump with that toilet?
