<strong>How</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Fix</strong> a <strong>Non</strong>-<br />

Flushing <strong>Toilet</strong><br />

If you are facing issue with non-<strong>flushing</strong> <strong>to</strong>ilet then without<br />

further ado, let’s proffer a range of answers <strong>to</strong> resolve this<br />

issue. Only plumbers can see via a professional lens and<br />

offer an immediate diagnosis of problems like these.<br />

1. Is there water in your home?<br />

Open all the taps in your home, and leave them running for<br />

a minute at least, and three, maximally. If you notice there is<br />

no water, contact your plumber.<br />

2. Check your <strong>to</strong>ilet cistern for water<br />

A) If it is empty then there might be issue with;<br />

- Tight chain - A worn flapper valve - Leaky float ball<br />

B) If it is full then there might be issue with;<br />

- A severed/slack lift chain - A faulty float - A broken<br />

handle<br />

3. Blocked <strong>to</strong>ilet<br />

Some <strong>to</strong>ilets won’t flush when they are blocked. Blocked<br />

<strong>to</strong>ilet require that you use a plunger and possibly a <strong>to</strong>ilet<br />

unblocker <strong>to</strong> free the passageways.<br />
