Toilets, Sinks, Showers, Tubs and Disposals - Slow Toilet on Brand New Unit

Our toliet sometimes flushes all the way and clears out everything and other times the water just moves around and only a little stuff, if anything, is flushed down the toliet. There does not seem to be a pattern as when we are going to have a problem. This is a second floor toilet. The other toilet on this level doesn't have this problem.

This is a brand new new toilet in a brand new home. We have had this issue since moving into the home 2 months ago. I read a similar posting about an older toilet, which you all thought something might have been blocking the flow or debris could have been causing the problem. Since this is a new toilet, I would hope this is not the issue.

Thanks

Not to put you off from messing with a toilet but in this new of a unit, I would expect some sort of warranty to assist you.

I am not a plumber but another thing I have seen as advice in a similar situaion is a blocked vent pipe. If the home was vacant for some time, a bird may have taken residence in the vent stack and blocked it with a nest. The cure was to take a hose on the roof and hose down the vent to flush the debris away.

You might want to hang for the real plumbers to give some advice.

Thanks for the advice. Fortunately, there is a warranty, but want to have an idea of what might be wrong in case the builder tries to avoid doing the work. The blocked vent pipe might be a real possibility since the home did sit vacant for 6 months.

Thanks

Something else to face the builder with....after you pressure test the system, you knock out the seal in the flange. There is a right way and "not so right" way. If a plumber's helper was unsealing the flange, he may have dropped the blank into the DWV pipe, and just said "oops", and went on. This blank could be stopping part of the flow. Just food for thought.
