Toilet Lids - Toilet Myths - This Old Toilet - 650-483-1139






I am saving money because I have a brick, bag, 2 liter bottle, bag of rocks, etc in my tank which displaces water. 
  Really, really bad idea! Toilet manufacturers do not, nor will they ever design a toilet with the thought in mind that you are going to stick a foreign object in their tank. Toilets are designed to use the exact amount of water they are designed to use. No more, no less. First, if you place something in your tank you will end up flushing it twice which defeats the whole purpose of saving water. Second, anything you place in your tank has the potential of ruining your toilet and flooding your house. So you may of saved $10 in year right up until you spend $10,000 on damage from a flood. Also, do not place anything like cleaning products in your tank. All the parts in your tank are designed to work with drinking water only! So if you wont put it in your mouth don't put it in your tank. If you just gotta have something, put it in the bowl.
