Toilet bowl?
Landlord just fitted a new toilet bowl for me, looks good and seems to work
OK but there's always a big turd, not mine, lying at the bottom which won't go away no matter how many times it's flushed. How do I fix this? Serious replies only please. Kenny |

Will ring landlords tomorrow, they'll send a man to look into it and maybe
get to the bottom of it. Kenny "philo" wrote in message ...

How do I fix this? Serious replies only please. Kenny "seems to work ok" is wrong. It is not working OK if there is residue. A good toilet these days take care of just about anything you drop in it, one flush. Landlord put in a cheap piece of crap. You have three options: 1. Replace with a good toilet 2. Keep a stick handy to break up the logs 3. Change to a more liquid diet I'd talk to the landlord. Offer 50 bucks to add to the cost of a good toilet from Kohler, American Standard or Toto. I have Kohlers at home and we have them at work. Comfort height, 1.6 gallon flush. None have ever left anything behind. |

Seriously, I'd break it up with a plunger, and then speak with the culprit if this crap is recurring. |

Softened the obstruction, so it would flush down the drain. If the OP is at all serious. RV holding tank fluid (the green stuff) also helps soften solids. -- .. Christopher A.
