Ok, so my toilets are like 23 years old, I have no knowledge on how they work, but both clog easily and both overfill if you don't shut off the water.
What the fuck is wrong with my toilets/plumbing?
You're more than two decades out of date with design and material improvements. And I'm guessing there are likely issues with things like gaskets and seals that are causing problems. Go pick up some new toilets and hire a plumber to install them, since you may need new valves, flanges, and who knows what else.
I mean that makes sense. i probably just needed someone else to say it before I felt comfortable putting that money down. thank you
You bet! While you're at it, you should seriously consider installing one with a bidet seat. It will, quite literally, change your life. It's that much better. There are cheap ones available on Amazon that you can install yourself, or you can splurge for a nice toto washlet or similar. Either way, go for it!
oh I got one of those. you better fucking believe it changed my life. like I think I might be the only person I know with one, and honestly, it's really gross to think of how many people don't use them
Preach it brother. When I try to tell people about how amazing they are, I usually get the same reaction of eww gross. So I always respond with: "If you got human poop on your arm, would you just wipe it with dry toilet paper and consider it clean? Or would you wash it?" That usually lands it home.
I just thought way too long about "and what about non-human poop?"
Quite literally one of the best experiences. Not sure why this isn’t more popular over here.
