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?

There is one of those early Congress designed water saving toilets at my house. If I drop a large load of Read Mix in there, it's going to clog. Last year, the toilets here at the nursing and rehab center were replaced with the latest water saving toilets and they rarely clog. Of course I can clog one up proving what people have said about me for years but not like I do at home. The best flushing toilets I've ever seen were those with the pressure tank inside the tank housing. They look like a regular toilet on the outside but when flushed, blast water like a fire hose and will flush a cat,.....so I've heard. ^_^

You could try using a toilet auger like this one:
http://www.lowes.com/pd/Cobra-3-8-in...uger/999908751

Sometimes. there can be something stuck in the toilet where it makes that
S-turn and it could partially block the flow when it flushes. Could be a
small toy, a toothbtish, etc. If it is something like that, taking the
toilet off usually reveals what it is. Or, maybe the toilet auger will
remove it.


Otherwise, you may just need a new toilet.

Maybe the jets around the rim and the large jet at the bottom have
calcium built up in them? People here suggested I get some toilet
cleaner that had acid in it and soak top dissolve the calcium build up.
It was pretty bad on the jet that was on the bottom of the bowl. After
I got the jets clean of the calcium build up - no more problems with clogs.

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.

"In 1992 U.S. President George H. W. Bush signed the Energy Policy Act. This law made 1.6 gallons per flush a mandatory federal maximum for new toilets. This law went into effect in January 1, 1994 for residential buildings and January 1, 1997 for commercial buildings."

Google is your friend. Whether that is your problem or not, IDK, but
I agree with Ed, many of the early ones sucked. You'd think after a
couple hundred years they'd be able to get it right the first time,
but I guess not.

Maybe you should go on a diet?
Ever think of that, Goob?

Or, perhaps you should put that overweight sow (yer wife) on a diet?

You can bet BOTH of them are lard asses who **** mass quantities
of sub-human waste. Fat hogs like these will NEVER consider
eating properly (less). If a full-pressuere fire hose won't
flush down their elephant-sized turds they will insist that
the fire engine isn't supplying enough pressure.

People like this disgust me.

triple flush for solids. New ones installec about 2008 have not has a
single skip.
