WC or bidet?
Hi folks
My WC has started behaving oddly. When I flush, the water jet from around the rim starts climbing back upwards and spills and spatters around the top of the rim and the toilet seat. Any ideas on what would cause this? Thanks -- |

Have you got limescale blocking your passages, or at least the
toilet's? If a flake gets wedged in the system near an exit point for the water it can cause turbulence in the stream that might cause that sort of thing.

I can assure you there is no limescale in my back passages! But I will start to explore for blockages elsewhere. Many thanks. -- |
