Hi.
I have two brand new Kohler toilets (about 1 year old). Inside the bowl, green stains are starting to appear where the water dispenses around the rim. We clean the toilets twice a week so it is not a maintenance issue. I am assuming that copper is leaching and calcifying around the toilet. We are also seeing the same staining on a very slow leaking bath fixture. We recently had to repair a pinhole leak in the copper pipe.
Q: What could be causing this? I read about improper grounding on copper, etc.. Does anyone have a checklist that I could use to start hunting down the culprit and circumvent any future damage?
Thanks everybody!
