We’re also sharing three tips on how to fix common toilet troubles:
Tip #1: If your toilet runs constantly (water is actively flowing into the tank through the fill valve), it wastes water which runs your utility bill up. The problem is usually in the fill tank. If you notice the water level in the tank is dropping:
- Check the flapper. If you can see it’s not sealing the flush valve opening, water from the tank will continually leak into the bowl and the toilet will run constantly to keep the tank filled. Replace the flapper as needed.
*BONUS Tip: If your toilet is noisy when it’s not in use and there’s a constant sound of water running. Follow the above steps and make sure to check if your water supply valve is fully open.
Tip #2 If your toilet won’t flush, try checking the flush handle and adjust that as needed to see if it’s too loose or too tight. If you need to replace the flush handle, remember to bring it with you to the store to ensure the right replacement.
- Check the lift chain to make sure it’s properly attached to the lift arm and the flapper at the base of the flush valve. Untangle or adjust as needed.
- Make sure the flapper seals the flush valve opening. If the flapper is damaged or has warped make sure to replace it.
Tip #3 Fix a running or leaking toilet right when the problem presents. It can be easy to overlook a leak in your toilet as most leaks are the water leaking out from the tank into the bowl (and down the drain) and not on the bathroom floor. It’s easy to keep putting it off, but it’ll cost you more and more in utility bills if left alone.
