The toilet is an item that is used very frequently in our life. If the toilet at home is not maintained for a long time, it is easy to have various unexpected problems, such as toilet leakage and slow toilet drainage. Toilet leakage will not only affect the cleanliness and sanitation of the bathroom, but also seriously affect the use of the toilet, because once the water is drained, it will leak everywhere, which will make people crazy. So, how to fix a leaking toilet?
How to fix a leaking toilet?
Toilet leakage is divided into water tank leakage and bottom leakage. Let’s analyze them one by one. Leaking water from the toilet tank is usually caused by a malfunction of the water scoop or the aging of the stainless steel hose. When checking, we can observe where the water scoop is when the water tank is filled with water. If the tank is full but continues to fill, the tank is definitely leaking. We can check the sensitivity of the water scoop, if the movement is not smooth or not moving, then there is something wrong with the scoop. Of course, if the toilet leaks due to the water scoop, of course we have to replace the water scoop.
If the toilet leaks from the bottom, we can observe the state of the water. If the leaking water is cloudy and smelly, the cause of the leak is that the seal of the bottom drain pipe is not sealed properly or the sealant between the rim of the toilet and the floor is not sealed properly. In this case, we must first confirm whether the drain pipe is unobstructed. If it is not smooth, we need to call someone to unblock it, and then reinstall the toilet. Of course, there is another reason that when the toilet is installed, the ground sewage outlet is not aligned with the toilet sewage outlet, causing sewage to leak out.
Toilet leakage is indeed a very annoying thing, it will seriously affect our quality of life, so we need to investigate the cause of leakage in time, and deal with the problem in time, if the toilet is blocked or the toilet is leaking, you can call the maintenance master, or you can Do the repairs yourself. However, prevention is the most important thing. I hope that everyone must clean and check the toilet at ordinary times to prevent problems from being discovered.
