Hello---I hope you can help me. I am a new homeowner and my toilets seem to be having some sort of problem. After flushing and as the water starts to fill back up, all of a sudden there is this LOUD gushing like sound! It started doing this yesterday. I don't know if I'm describing it right but it almost sounds like a lot of pressure is being forced in or something. I don't know. I thought that maybe the flush valve inside of the tank needed replacing because at times I do need to jiggle the handle to stop it from running. But this morning, the toilet in the other bathroom did the same thing! Can you give me some idea of what's wrong and what I need to do to fix it? Is it something to do with the water. I mean--to have 2 toilets doing that or is it just coincidence and perhaps both need new flush valves??? I did remove the tank lid at one point while it was flushing to see what I could see. At the point when it starts to get loud, it does appear that for some reason, some how, there is more pressure --it almost looks like the pressure you see from jets in a whirlpool bath.
I've described this the best way that I can. I hope it makes sense and that you can give me some idea as to what is wrong.
Thank you SO much
