Dirty Water in toilets, gurggling & spitting sounds

In the middle of the night, I woke up to gurggling and spitting sounds coming from one of my toilets. I turned off the valuve and the noise stopped, but the water in the tank and the bowl was brown. It doesn't smell bad, it just seems dirty. I checked all my toilets and they are all that way. One doesn't make the noise, but the other two do. What's going on? We just had rain -- could that have anything to do with it? I'm on a septic tank, if that matters.

Are you on a well or city water? Septic tank shouldn't matter as it is below the level of the water in the toilet. It is coming from the fill water.

SOURCE: Water disappears to below the bowl inlet and stop.

adjust the float up to make water deeper....make sure no obstructions around the flapper....flapper needs to rest tight to bottom of inside the tank..flapper is the rubber peice that lifts when you push handle

Testimonial: "Thanks. Rubber on the flapper was torn. Hareware replaced the flapper. It work well now. Ciao"

I have a toto toilet , model MS604114CEFG , bought 2 years ago . Last night , when I flushed it , the water level in the toilet bowl did not come down . It stay high in the bowl . In the tank reservoi

If the toilet is the only fixture in the bathroom group that is having an issue, then there is a partial blockage in Strap of toilet or in drain pipe close to toilet. If other fixtures are showing sluggish drainage, then the main drainage line is clogged. If all is fine with tub lav shower etc., pull toilet from floor and carefully turn upside down, and look to see if anything is visable. if so remove it and reinstall with new seal(wax ring). Also, look into pipe and see if any water is standing in it. If water is standing in pipe, the drain line is clogged and must be rodded(snaked) out to cure problem

Washing machine leaking

It sounds like the water valves are not shutting off completely.
You have faulty water valves & need to replace the leaking one.

Dirty Water & gurggling & spitting sounds coming from toilets

I assume that the toilet flushes and refills with clean water? Check the vent- for debris or critters. If nothing is apparent, stick a hose in it and run water down the vent.

Can't tell if the pump is running, got votage to it, water spitting out of screw holding end cap.

cheack amps not volts Amps it the draw down of power volts just tell you how much is power

A water meter tells you how much water you used to flush a toilet not how much pressure is there.

Amps is the meter that tells you how much is being used when its running

The water in the bowl does not evacuate properly. Seems only half of dirty toilet water leaves the bowl leaving other half of dirty toilet water to mix with clean water coming in from bowl. Secon, third...

what you need first is to check to see if your bowl is out of level then use a snake rotor to clean any mess in the bowl then flush this should solve your flushing problem

Ac making noise

sounds like the drain is clogged, it usually comes out if the outside of the unit just below the coil in the middle of the back, there may or may not be a hose attached to the front pan below the evaporator, try pressuring it up to blow it out. worst case you may have to remove from the window, disassemble and clean. hope this helps...
