 Posted: Sat Jul 26, 2008 4:48 pm Post subject: Groaning Toilet Flush |
  |
|
|
All of a sudden, whenever the toilet has not been flushed in a few hours, when it is flushed a "groaning" sound seems to come from the pipework around the toilet.
Intensity of the groan changed when I press on teh ball valave when the toilet is refilling. Is it something to do with the valve, which is only a year old? |

Take it to bits and give it a good clean and new washer.
