Not a Master Plumber
When flushing the toilet in bathroom or on the main floor(first floor) the water seems to give a 'gurgling' sound - there does'nt seem to be any bubbles at all (if there are any bubbles there tiny).
The bathtub and bathroom sink drain quickly...no weird sounds and very fast - same also for the basement bathtub ans sink.
The problem just seems to be with the toilets.
SO FAR: I replaced the wax ring around both toilets but same sounds
any advice please?
MY RESEARCH SO FAR: Apparently this could be caused by a partial blockage in either the venting or the city sewer line.
the main toilet is vented through the main stack in is around 2 ft away from the stack - the basement toilet is within 5ft of the main stack and has its own vent.
I also see that there seems to be frequent discolouring to the toilet basin (kinda) yellowish/light brown - we generally have to clean the toilet every wk - is that normal?
Thanks again Novicepiper
