    Replacing sewer lines= more problems

    Rooter Hero (San Jose) just replaced our sewer line's pipes (ghost flushing occurred for a week or two prior to clog) for 26 grand- pretty sure we got screwed due to our location and age of owner (86 year old grandfather) ...right away we had a multitude of new issues: 1) upstairs toilet...

    Lead around a cast iron drain pipe?

    I was doing some home improvement and the phlange under the toilet was completely corroded where the screws were so I started taking it out and the stuff between the phlange and the iron drain pipe just didn't want to come out. I have managed to get some of it out and it's a metal, soft enough...

    Gulping toilet

    Moved into a condo in a 9 story building. Nice comfy toilets that make an awful gulping, or gluging, sound at the end of the flush; quite loud. I notice that the tank is marked 1.6gal, and the flush valve(?) is marked 1.28gal. I have no idea if this difference make a difference, or what the heck...

    Flush valve for Villeroy & Boch Carolla toilet

    Previous owners left me with a Villeroy & Boch Carolla toilet. Just yesterday it started running non-stop. I believe the issue is with the flush valve but I can't seem to get it working. Any ideas where this part is available? I am in the US. Also is there anything special about this toilet...

    My toilet has lost its oomph!

    When I flush my toilet, all the water goes down the drain as it should. But solid waste does not; it takes 2 or 3 flushes for that to go down. (and no- there has been no change in my solid waste!) A plumber checked my toilet and said that he didn't notice anything wrong with it, but there...

    Strange sort of flush-valve retaining system?

    Hi Forum Folke, My old flush valve needs replacement (leaking water constantly). I changed the flapper (OEM part), but it still leaks, just not as badly as before, so I'm assuming the valve seat is no good either, necessitating complete valve replacement. The existing valve ( Certain Seal 400...

    Anti-Sweat valve for toilet?

    Hi Forum Folke, Like lots of others, I have a toilet that sweats practically all year 'round, even in Winter. I'd like to add an anti-sweat valve to the fill plumbing, but I frankly don't see how it could possibly work as a "drop-in," without some creative plumbing. The toilet is easily 20...
