A few days ago my roommate flushed the toilet in our apartment, and water started gushing out. It was hard to tell where the water was coming from (the base? the tank?), but it definitely wasn't the bowl overflowing. By the time we got the water off, half the apartment was flooded.
I notified the super, who said that the toilet was just clogged. He plunged it and flushed it and it was fine! Now the toilet works okay, except there's a new high-pitched whistling sound every time I flush. (I can hear the same sound when the next-door neighbors flush too.)
I am interested to know what could have caused our problem, but mostly I want to know whether or not this issue warrants further attention. Is it likely to happen again? Should I be worried?
