Toilet troubleshooting in Murrieta Hot Springs.
Water damage emergencies happen to the best of us. If you have indoor plumbing, you are likely to have a water damage emergency at some time in your life. At SERVPRO® of Murrieta, we respond to water damage emergencies throughout the year and know that some water damage and plumbing emergencies can be prevented. The Institute for Business and Home Safety lists these prevention and maintenance tips for keeping toilets in good working order:
- Be patient after you flush and wait for the valve to finish refilling the tank and bowl completely. If an overflow looks imminent, lift off the tank cover, lift the float to shut off the water flow to the tank, and then turn off the supply valve.
- Twice a year, inspect a toilet’s components, such as the fill, supply, flush valves, and the supply line. Make sure you can turn off the water supply. If you have older screw-type valves that are hard to turn or start leaking, consider replacing them with simpler ball valves that are easy to shut off quickly.
