Did you know that a constantly running toilet can waste thousands of gallons of water each year? The continuous sound of water refilling your toilet tank can significantly increase your water bill and waste valuable water in Albuquerque.
Reasons Why Your Toilet Won’t Stop Running
- Damaged Flapper Valves – Hard water can shorten the life of your flapper valves, leading them to fail to seal properly.
- Broken Fill Valves – If your fill valve is broken, water will continuously fill your toilet bowl.
- Misadjusted Floats – If your toilet float is set too high, water will continue to run.
Should I Replace My Toilet’s Flapper?
If your toilet still runs after you replace the flapper, you may have other worn parts that need to be replaced. Replacing your toilet’s flapper can be a simple task for some homeowners. If you’re having issues, contact Day & Night Plumbing.
