How to tell where the water is leaking, the toilet water pipe leak repair

Don't blindly repair toilet leakage, first find out the cause of the leakage, then you can deal with it correctly. Generally speaking, there are two reasons for toilet leakage, one is that there is a leak in one's own water pipe, and the other is that the waterproof layer is not qualified.

Leakage of water pipe: The manifestation of this situation is that the leakage is continuous and uninterrupted, and sometimes the leakage volume also has a continuous increase phenomenon, such as closing the main valve of the water pipe, the leakage will be reduced immediately.

Sewer leakage: first observe the leakage amount, and make a record, then open all the faucets, toilets to flush multiple times and pour water into the floor drain, if the leakage increases, it means that the pipe is damaged and leaking.

Waterproof layer leakage: only under the conditions of bathing, mopping and other conditions, that is, when the ground and wall are drenched and waterlogged, leakage occurs, in which case it can be determined as waterproof layer leakage.

First of all, if it is a pipe leakage, you first need to find the leakage point, if it is only a leak in the sewer pipe of the wash basin, then directly buy a sewer pipe to replace it, pay attention to the replacement, and deal with the excuse. However, if the leaking pipe is a pipe in the wall or underground, then you need to find the leakage point first, you can first suppress the toilet water pipe, detect the leakage point, dig the wall of the leakage location, and replace the leaking water pipe.

If there is a problem with the waterproof layer, then it is also necessary to remove the tile, and clean the dust, oil, and water on the surface, and keep the surface dry, and then re-waterproof the toilet. And after doing it, a 24-hour closed water test will be carried out.
