Toilets are often the unthankful part of your house. Very few people spend time and efforts for there well functionality and if we don’t they will stop working, below are the few tips to eliminate future clogs.
- Low-Flow Toilet tips –
Reason – Low flush toilets are a great way to reduce the amount of water being used to flush the toilet, which keeps water bills and usage as low as possible. However, we often see these types of toilets causing problems with low water pressure.
Measures – Be careful about how much toilet paper you attempt to flush at time. You may also wish to consider upgrading your toilet to a newer model that saves water without loss of efficiency. - Drain Line Clogged –
Reason – In some cases, the age of a drain line can work against it, and the drain line may frequently clog even when flushing just regular waste and paper products. Hair, paper, and foreign objects are other common culprits that aging drain lines have a hard time with.
Measures – Schedule an appointment today to have your drain lines cleared. If the problem continues, you may need to have your drain and/or sewer lines repaired or replaced and we are here to help you. - Low pressure in water tank –
Reason – Pressure must be applied to any waste making its way out of the toilet. If the toilet tank is not completely full when the toilet is flushed, there won’t be enough pressure to clear the bowl.
Measures – Make sure that supply valve is in the free position, then check for leaks in water line. If there is no problem with this try replacing the fill valve. - S-Trap clogged –
Reason – S traps, that bit of S-shaped pipe behind your toilet, are meant to prevent sewer gases from entering your home through the toilet drain. While useful in this regard, they may also be susceptible to clogs.
Measures – Only plunger may be all you need to clear a minor clog this far up the drain line. - External Factors –
