I have had my slab house for a few years and I have occasional clogging problems with one toilet that is on the first floor. I have been told by a plumber that it is because of the pitch AFTER getting advice from him on a new toilet and finding it doesn't work all the time without a plunger.
The new toilet I have is an American Standard Townsend Champion 4. I have had some people say it could be a line clog but it works fine for liquids, it is just the occasional solid that needs a plunge. Would you reccomend an air assist or something else? This toilet is supposed to be a top performer but it isn't in my opinion.
Another note, there is an occasional leak at the flange when I have to plunge which needs to be fixed as well. Does the seal at the base cause any issues with flushing performance? The plumber that broke it says the flange is broken which is another ordeal because it is concrete and it is newer construction.
Any ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
