No. It needs room to move. At least a two inch clearance is preferable.
Probably because the line is still at least partially clogged.
Yes, it does, and it disperses to cover an area of at least ten feet. This should be noted by those whose sinks - and toothbrushes - are within this range.
Older toilets used from 3 to 6 gallons of water to flush. The new technology, most of which are now mandated by local and state codes use from 1.28 gallons to 1.6 gallons per flush. Additionally there are brands on the market that offer 1 and 2 stage flush options. Stage 1 for liquid waste and uses the least amount of water stage 2 for solid waste. Thers are still variations on dependibility of these low flush toilets and they vary from brand to brand.
Not sure what you are asking. All toilets have a bowl. You generally push the handle down on the front or side of the tank. If you are asking how to flush with a bowl of water, it takes a bucket of at least 2 gallon. Just pour it into the bowl about as fast as it will take it. At some point, there will be enough water in the bowl to flush it.
To effectively use bleach in the toilet tank, first, turn off the water supply and flush the toilet to empty the tank. Then, pour half a cup of bleach into the tank and let it sit for at least 10-15 minutes. After that, scrub the tank with a toilet brush to ensure the bleach reaches all areas. Finally, turn the water supply back on and flush the toilet a few times to rinse out the bleach. Repeat this process once a month to keep the toilet tank clean and free of bacteria.
To effectively clean your toilet with hydrogen peroxide, pour it directly into the bowl and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Scrub the bowl with a toilet brush and flush. Repeat as needed for tough stains. Remember to wear gloves and ventilate the area while cleaning.
Any low-flow toilet will use very little water. If you want even less water usage then put a brick in the tank.
To effectively use CLR in the toilet tank to remove stubborn stains and mineral deposits, first, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Flush the toilet to empty the tank. Pour CLR directly into the tank and let it sit for at least 10-15 minutes. Scrub the tank with a toilet brush to help loosen the stains and deposits. Finally, turn the water supply back on and flush the toilet to rinse out the CLR. Repeat the process if necessary. Remember to follow the instructions on the CLR bottle and wear gloves and eye protection when handling the product.
A toilet maintains its sanitary condition by means of a water seal- -the clean water at the bottom of the bowl keeps odors away and bacteria at an acceptable level. The water stays in the bowl because a toilet has a trap like all other fixtures. The trap is visible on some toilets and the link below shows the basic design of the toilet. When water is released into the bowl (when the flush handle is activated) the water and all material in the bowl "overflow" out of the trap and create a siphon. The siphon pulls all of the water out of the bowl and then is broken when it sucks air (that gurgling sound after you flush.) Current law mandates the following conditions.1- Toilet must be made of smooth impervious material.2- Toilet must have acid resistant finish.3- Toilet must flush with 1.6 Gallons per flush or less.4- Toilet must have a non mechanical seal5- Toilet must evacuate at least 95% of the water (objectionable material) every flushhttp://www.homerepairforum.com/images/uploads/2005-9-10_Toilet_Bowl_FLUSH_STEP_1_w550.JPG
Virtually every house has at least one toilet.
To effectively clean toilet jets for proper functioning and hygiene, mix equal parts water and vinegar in a spray bottle. Spray the solution into the jets and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Scrub the jets with a toilet brush and flush the toilet to rinse. Repeat this process regularly to maintain cleanliness and prevent clogs.
