All About Your Toilet
Is your toilet functioning well or are you experiencing water leaking in your bathroom? Leaking water in the bathroom when the faucet, shower, bath, and toilet are not being used indicates a plumbing system problem. Although toilets are built to take a lot of use and some abuse, they can still fail. Sometimes a toilet repair is a simple do-it-yourself project, although on other occasions, you may need a professional plumber, like Henco Plumbing Services, to fix the problem.
If you have a plumbing problem that you cannot fix yourself, call Henco Plumbing at 360-773-8039 so we can schedule an appointment to inspect your plumbing issues and get your plumbing fixed right away.
Don’t know if you need toilet repair or a toilet replacement? Here’s some information from Adept Plumbing listing some of the signs that your toilet needs replacement.
Signs It’s Time to Replace Your Toilet
Out With The Old: Four Signs It’s Time To Give Your Toilet Its Final Flush
There’s no doubt about it: your toilet is an essential component of your home. But while toilets are made from sturdy materials and can often last several decades, they do need to be replaced from time to time. Here are four signs it’s time to give your old toilet one final flush — and replace it with a newer model.
1. It’s Leaking onto the Floor
If you notice water dripping onto the floor around your toilet, first check to make sure the water supply tube, which leads into the toilet near its base, is tightened. If the leaking continues even after you tighten the supply tube, then your toilet’s wax seal, which sits between the toilet and the floor, may be broken. There may also be cracks in the tank or bowl, allowing water to slowly drip onto the floor.
Toilet performance has changed considerably over the years. We now have excellent water saving toilets that function very well. If you have an older toilet, or one that is using a lot of water, you should look into new toilet technology. This article, from Family Handyman has some excellent material on the new highly efficient toilets for the home.
New Toilets Save Water
The U.S. Congress, in 1994, passed a law that requires toilets 1.6 gallons of water (or less). When this law was passed, the average toilet was using 3.5 gallons of water or more.
As a result, homeowners and business owners, too were using toilets that needed two or three attempts to flush and clean the toilet bowel. These poorly designed toilets are also prone to clogged drains and ‘plugging’. The design for these toilets is not really up to the task and there is nothing a home owner can do. The best solutions is to purchase and install a new toilet.Manufacturers have refined old designs and developed entirely new systems to make water-saving toilets work better. But there are still some weak flushers out there, so do some research before you buy. When you’re shopping, you’ll find three types of flushing systems. Before you buy anything, check the latest testing results by doing an internet search for “toilet performance tests.”
In most situations, you should be able to unclog your toilet and make minor parts replacements. However, if your toilet continues to use too much water, or it continues to “run” following your repair efforts, there may something serious occurring. Your toilet may require professional repair or replacement. At Henco Plumbing Services, we know how to remove and install old and broken toilets from homes.
