That sounds like a bad toilet installation or drainage issue, especially if it backs up frequently. Common suspects are a poor drain connection, improper venting, an obstruction, or the toilet not being seated correctly.

If you can share a photo of the toilet base, fl**ge, and the drain connection behind it, I can point out what looks unusual.

Yep—stop trying to brute-force that one. From the photo, it looks heavily corroded, so the bolt may be effectively seize...

Yep—stop trying to brute-force that one. From the photo, it looks heavily corroded, so the bolt may be effectively seized.

For a toilet-seat replacement, the practical solution is usually to cut the old bolt/hinge off rather than risk cracking the porcelain. A close-quarters hacksaw is commonly recommended for badly corroded toilet-seat hardware.

Since cutting tools can be hazardous, have an adult or experienced plumber handle that part. Protect the porcelain while cutting, and replace the old hardware with the new seat's hardware afterward.

If these are standard 240V electric tank heaters piped in series, having 240V at each heater does not necessarily mean both are actually heating. Manufacturers note that insufficient hot water can come from wiring issues, thermostat/ECO problems, or failed heating elements.

The quickest way to narrow it down is:

Check temperature leaving heater #1.

Check temperature leaving heater #2.

If #1 is hot but #2 is lukewarm → focus on heater #2, its element/thermostat, or a plumbing connection/cold-water crossover.

If #1 is only lukewarm → the problem is with heater #1 or its heating controls.

Verify the plumbing direction: cold → heater #1 → heater #2 → house hot.

Also verify both tanks were completely filled and purged before energizing; powering an electric heater before it is full can damage the elements.

Important: 240V measured with a meter only confirms supply voltage. It doesn't prove that an element is drawing current and heating.

Because this involves exposed 240V, have a qualified adult/electrician perform the electrical testing rather than opening energized heater panels yourself.

If you send a photo of the piping connections and the model numbers of both heaters, I can help you identify what looks wrong.

One Small Rubber Part Could Be Wasting Water Every Day!🚽🛁

The toilet flapper seals the water inside the tank until you flush. As it ages, it can become brittle, warped, or cracked, allowing water to leak slowly into the bowl.

Signs of a worn flapper include:

Your toilet runs on and off by itself.

You hear water refilling even when no one has used the toilet.

Your water bill seems higher than usual.

Replacing a worn flapper is often a quick and affordable repair that can help prevent

unnecessary water waste.
