Several years ago, my wife and I renovated our bathrooms and put in "comfort-height" toilets with excellent MaP Flush Performance. We just moved to another home and I've had to plunger an RAK toilet in the new house three times in the past three weeks. During inspections, the sewer line was scoped and no blockage was found.

My question is, is there any reasonable chance that if I had the toilet snaked, the flushing problem would be solved? Or do I need to replace this toilet with one that will pass bulkier waste?


Any idea how old they are? There was a period that low flow toilets
were mandated but the engineering was not there yet and they were
terrible performers. If they are 15 years or older, I'd replace it.

If they are fairly new I'd pull it and look for local blockage.

Ed, the house was built in 1993. Is this a period when poor performing toilets were common?


Yes. About that time we had a new one at work. It was a double or
triple flush for solids. New ones installec about 2008 have not has a
single skip.
