Frequently plugged toilet
I posted before Thanksgiving the toilet in the bathroom of the rental
not flushing well. This is one which has an original lead waste bend which leaked before I replaced with a PVC one like six or seven years ago. The toliet was the old standard non-water-saving type I am very hesitant to replace. During Thanksgiving I removed the toilet, could not find anything wrong, put it back with a new flush valve having a higher overflow tube. My strategy was to flush with even more water in the tank. It didn't work. The tenants are having the same complaint. Now I'd appreciate a toilet recommendation. I won't exactly go cheap, knowing you get what you pay for. But I won't pamper them either. It's a rental after all. I had a water-saving Kohler a few years ago which works but doesn't flush with power. Advice is appreciated. |
