We had this installed in our second floor bathroom back in the fall. Almost immediately we noticed a thumping noise upon flushing but it would only happen when "stuff" was being flushed. Two plumbers have since advised that it's the design of the toilet and it's forced flushing and the way in which our pipes were set up when the house was built 17 years ago. Supposedly since it doesn't vent directly outside the house but rather exits across the bathroom floor and meets up with another pipe that's the reason for the thumping with the design of today's toilet. Odd, but I can buy that (if I have to), but they tried to convince me that this gurgling sound once the toilet flushed was also part of the same issue.
My parent's installed this toilet in their home about a month ago and it's smooth. I've seen this toilet in other locations...smooth upon flushing.
We started to notice the gurgling about a month ago. It's a guest bathroom so we hadn't used it often. Anyway, once we started to hear this gurgling we started to use it more and it's just gotten worse. In fact last week my husband heard a "burp" from the toilet and we hadn't even use it. The plumber pushed the inside contraption in the tank down so that the water level would be lower thinking that would help.
Since it's been worse and now we see bubbles in the toilet. Similar carbon-like bubbles that you would see in a soda bottle.
Not normal! Anyone have this experience? What do you recommend?
