You might think that having three toilets in a home would be a virtual smorgasbord of choices for places to do your business. That is, as long as they all work…
We have one that re-flushes itself repeatedly once you’ve pulled the handle. We have one that requires you to hold down the handle and guess how long it will take to engage. And, we have another that works most of the time, but has been known to run continuously as soon as you get downstairs.
As toilets are probably one of the simplest household appliances (and in our joint – one of the most important aside from the refrigerator), my inability to resolve any of these ongoing malfunctions will likely hold me back from ever hosting a home improvement show. Unless I get to achieve the “before” scenarios for Holmes On Homes…
Chow for now!!

Hmmm......sounds like you should be checking the chain inside the tank (on two of them anyways). The one that flushes by itself, no clue. Sounds like the one that won't flush has a chain that is too long. The one that runs might have a chain that is too short or is getting caught. You might even need to get a new toilet which is tres tres easy to install (just don't forget the wax seal). GOOD LUCK! Oh and be careful on the ladder when checking out the tank.
p.s. Schluter
RATS!!
The ONE thing I wanted to remember to add to today's piece, I forgot.
Schluter to you, too!!
PS - When I look inside the tank, all I see is a drain. Should I look inside the bowl at the back, the one with the porcelain cover??
Yeah........or maybe you should call a plumber!! LMAO
Ciao
Perhaps when you and Ghetto Doode arrive...
This also posesthe question: When did ALberta get indoor plumbing?
Ha!! Starting a new thread are we??
Well, to answer your question, we are relatively sure that Calgary has had running water for YEARS now. It's called the Bow River.
