Toilet running constantly — Calpe, Valencian Community
A toilet that keeps running after flushing wastes hundreds of gallons of water per day and drives up utility bills. The most common culprits are a worn flapper valve that no longer seals the flush valve opening, a waterlogged float that cannot shut off the fill valve, an improperly adjusted fill level, or a cracked overflow tube. A plumber can replace the flapper and fill valve, adjust float height, and check the flush valve seat for mineral buildup or warping.
