After flushing a toilet, it should empty itself and then refill itself. There is generally noise coming from your toilet for 60 seconds, but then all should be quiet once the toilet system has completed its task. However, many people find that their toilet continues to run, constantly refilling with water and making noise. This is a problem because a “running toilet” can waste hundreds of gallons of water per day, and it can quickly rack up your water bill.
The first thing to do when your toilet keeps running is to turn off the water valve for the toilet. This will drain stop the toilet from continuously refilling itself. For a toilet that has only experienced the continual running for the first time, an adjustment of the chain or flapper can sometimes fix the issue. However, if you are experiencing a toilet that has been running on and off for days on end, it is time to call in the experts.
