We recently purchased a new construction townhome (haven't moved it yet). We had issues with bellies under the foundation that were corrected by the builder (tunneled under foundation). After that fix, we noticed that all three toilets had low water in the bowls so we did the following:
We reset the toilet bowl water levels in all three toilets and monitored it for a week. During this time we did not run any water or flush any toilets. The water level in all three of our toilets has dropped by almost 2 inches in a week. We do not see any sign of leaking around any of the toilets (master and ½ bath are not caulked).
The results can be seen in the photos below. There is about a 1 inch drop overnight (from 02/20 to 02/21) and then continued drop through the week (to 02/27).
We are struggling to understand why the water level would recede like this in all three new toilets. Again, townhome is empty and we were very careful not to run any water over the last week.
Thanks for any insight you might have on what is causing this.
