Running toilet — Lodz, Łódź
A running toilet wastes hundreds of gallons of water per day and keeps refilling long after you flush. The culprit is usually a worn flapper valve, a faulty fill valve, or an incorrect float level. A plumber can fix it quickly and stop the waste.
Why this is common in Lodz
Łódź's vast stock of 19th-century textile-era tenements (kamienice) carries original cast-iron and lead-jointed plumbing well past its service life, so re-piping is a core part of every revitalization. Shared risers between flats mean a single leak becomes a multi-unit problem, and high water tables in low-lying districts keep basement drainage work busy.
