Have you noticed that your toilet has had a slow flush? Weak flushing toilets can be frustrating however, there are a few common problems that have easy solutions to get your toilet flushing properly again. Check them out below!

Water in the tank is low. If your tank is flushing slowly, it could simply be because the float needs to be adjusted to allow the water level to increase. Be sure to handle the float with care as damaging it could cause a leak.

Flapper closes quickly. In order to get your toilet tank to drain properly, the flapper needs to be adjusted to the right distance. First, check the length of your flapper chain. If it's to short, it's likely there isn't enough water flowing through the tank. Shorten the chain to ensure more water runs through each time your toilet is flushed.

Your toilet is clogged. A plugged up toilet could be the reason your toilet has a weak flush. To determine whether or not you have a clog, grab the plunger and go to work. If this doesn;t work, you may have to call in the professionals.
