Why is the water in my toilet bowl low
Low Water Level In The Toilet Bowl-Easy Fix
hey everybody I'm here today to show you
what to do if you have a low water level
in the toilet bowl this will be an easy
fix if you are in this situation so if
you realize that in your toilet bowl you
have a very low water level then this is
gonna be an easy fix for you it's very
simple it's very straightforward and to
be honest with you all you need is a
screwdriver but before I show you how to
do it it's important to understand how
this works okay now you can go ahead and
skip ahead if you want to just see the
instructions but it's really important I
believe it's really important for you to
understand how this works
so essentially when you flush your
toilet the tank over here fills up with
water okay so that's it this releases
the water into the bowl and the tank
fills up with new water
in addition down this little pipe over
here goes additional water and that
water is flowing as long as the tank is
filling and that water that goes in that
pipe ends up going in the bowl so in
essence the more water that you can send
down that pipe the more water it that's
gonna actually end up in the bowl now
like I said the water that gets sent
down that pipe continues to flow as long
as this is filling so the longer that
you can keep this tank over here filling
for that's the more water that's gonna
go on the bowl so if you want to raise
the height of the water in the bowl all
that you have to do is make sure that
this fills for longer okay now let's get
to the tutorial okay so essentially this
how much this fills and how long this
fills for is dependent on this thing
right here this is the float you can see
if I push it down right there it's gonna
continue filling right so it's all
dependent on this thing right here now
essentially if you raise this up okay
that is gonna allow the tank to continue
filling for longer so all that you have
to do to raise the water level in your
toilet bowl is to use a screwdriver like
this to turn this to raise it up now
you'll notice if you turn it in one
direction it's gonna go down you turn in
the other direction it's gonna go up
it's very simple so I take this right
here
and I turn it right now I'm turning it
clockwise it's okay so turning it
clockwise and as I turn it clockwise
it's actually raising it up so I'm gonna
turn this clockwise substantially okay
and every click is just a portion of a
turn so I'm turning it clockwise and you
can probably see that now it's much
higher just look at the height of it
compared to where it was before it's
much higher so all that I have to do now
that I've actually turned it clockwise
sorry about the bad camera angle all
that I have to do now is I have to flush
the toilet and you see when I flush the
toilet like I said okay the tank over
here is essentially going to be filling
up with water and as the tank is filling
up with water
the filler is actually sending water
into here and that water that's going
into there is actually filling up the
bowl you see the water that's coming
down there that's actually coming from
the water
oops sorry about that the water that's
in there okay that's filling up that is
actually coming from right over here
this is just literally sending water
into there so now that I've adjusted it
and I flushed it that the actual tank
will fill up more which will mean that
more water gets sent into the bowl which
will mean that it's going to be not a
low water level anymore so it's simple
sum it up hopefully this wasn't too
complicated because really all that you
got to do is use the screwdriver to turn
that but it's important that you know
why you're turning it and what you're
doing to the toilet right I don't want
you to blindly just go start turning
screws and you know not know what you're
doing right so essentially like I said
this is filling for longer which means
this is filling for longer the tank is
filling for longer which means that this
tube is filling for longer which means
that more water is getting sent into the
bowl so if you have a low water level
that's all that you got to do take your
screwdriver and turn this so that the
float actually raises now if by any
chance you have an older style toilet
which has it's gonna have like a long
stem and then like a floating ball
towards the end there if you have that
style you can do a similar thing except
it's gonna require a little different
method but essentially you still want
the tank to be filling for longer you
can adjust that ball float but
essentially you want the tank to be
filling for longer that is the solution
and that's basically it in this video
I've gone over an easy fix for having a
low water level in the toilet bowl if
