The flapper in the tank is not sealing completely and letting water seep into the bowl. Just replace it.

Can a running toilet effect the hot water heater?

Usually not. If toilet has a mixing valve going to it so warm water fills toilet tank and toilet runs constantly, then enough warm water could leak out through toilet to possibly have an effect on water heater.

What works best to clear a clogged toilet?

It really depends on a few things, where the clog is(is it in the toilet itself or in the "stack" below the toilet that runs into the sewer system and what is causing the clog. For lack of a better way of saying it, if it is toilet paper or a large #2 then a plunger will usually do the trick. For really stubborn clogs you could use a toilet auger, just pay attention not to damage the finish on the toilet bowl.

Why does the toilet not flush?

Assuming you have a regular tank toilet with a ball float and rubber flap and that the water is turned on and the tank is filling, the most common cause of a toilet not flushing is a broken or detached chain that runs from the handle lever to te rubber flap that keeps the water in the tank.


Why would a first floor toilet gurgle when a second floor toilet is flushed?

The water in the lower toilet is probably being siphoned out of the tank by the negative pressure caused by flushing the upper toilet. This CAN happen if the water level in the tank of the lower toilet is over the top of the ballcock. If this is the case, the tank water is being siphoned into your drinking water! Replace the ballcock with a Fluidmaster right away. If you have a small white fill valve that sits in the bottom of the tank, get rid of it. These are illegal and WILL siphon under these conditions. If the lower toilet runs AFTER the fill cycle of the upper toilet, it may be that the ballcock seals at a lower pressure, and the pressure spike when the upper toilet shuts off causes it to run a bit until the added water closes the valve a little tighter.
