There is reason things are different.

Water bill this past month was up a good bit. I checked the meter and the leak indicator was still. Discovered yesterday I had a toilet not shutting off when flushed.:eek

the cold weather usually hardens the flap stopper an it doesn't seal good
you have to replace
Happens to me almost every year

This case it was the valve had gone bad. Would not shut-off.

Their's nothing like being frusterated with your toilet.

How friggin cold is your bathroom? I have extra pex heat under mine so the floors are warm. My toilets will eventually have the fill valves fail from the hard water buildup.

:24:.. I am not sure if you ever intend to be funny, but you always are.

A toilet that's not working properly may sound humorous. But it really can be a pain in the butt.

My next one will be like those new ones you see at some convenience stores ...it fills a tank inside the tank...giving a power flush instead of a gravity flush ..they should name em turbo turd.

Best toilets are the older ones before the enviro crowd made the low flush mandates

I got one in the basement and the plumber said don't ever get rid of it.

They have made improvements since the first low flush ones though I will say. I think though if you have the real low flow ones that it is important to have the sewers cleaned out more regularly. Not enough water movement to flush everything out to the main.

Try having a bad selenoid on your well pump and then having to pull 180' of it to get to it.

BIG difference in price between a 1/2 horse and 3/4 horse motor I'll tell yeah lol

Do you mean capacitor? Yeah a 3/4 horse is almost double till you get the capacitor box and lightning supressor. At 180 ft. 1/2 is more than enough.
