Imagine this, it’s a long day, you went inside your bathroom to release tension, after flushing, this loud noise just filled the room with more stress. You got desperate and started banging the toilet. No need for that, we are here to help you understand it and how you can fix it.
CAUSES OF A NOISY TOILET AND HOW TO FIX IT
1. Hammering Sound known as the Water Hammer
The water hammer is the loud bang in your pipes after a fill valve shuts off. This can be caused by old shut off valves with heavy build-up of minerals and rust.
If left unattended, the force could eventually break or loosen poorly soldered joints and fittings resulting in leaks inside your home’s walls.
Solution: Resolve the issue with this easy to follow steps. If the problem still occurs, adjust the shut-off valve and reduce the flow of water causing the noise.
2. Faulty Flapper Causes Ghost Flushing
Ghost flushing means the toilet is losing water probably caused by the faulty flapper. When the float gets to a certain level, the water then switches on resulting in flushing on its own.
Solution: Clean the bottom of the tank as well as the flapper area. Replace the flapper if necessary.
3. Hissing Fill Valves
If your fill valves are producing a hissing sound it might be telling you that the water is constantly passing through the fill valve and going into the tank.
