There are a few possible reasons why your toilet bowl might empty itself randomly. There are two issues that are making this possible. One is something called Ghost Flushing.

Ghost flushing (aka Phantom Flushing) is when your toilet randomly flushes for no reason. This can be caused by a number of things, such as a damaged flapper or high water pressure. If you’re experiencing this problem, you may want to check to make sure that everything is in good working order and fix any issues you find. If the problem persists, you may need to call a professional to take a look at your toilet.

Another issue is if your toilet bowl is losing water. This can be caused by any one (or a combination of) these 5 problems:

  • A problem with the fill tube
  • A crack in the toilet bowl
  • A block in the sewer vent line
  • A problem with the fill valve
  • A problem with the float in the tank

If you’re not sure what’s causing your toilet to behave this way, it’s best to call a plumber for help.

How Do You Fix A Toilet That Keeps Emptying?

Okay, so let’s go over each of the possible problems mentioned above and what needs to be done to fix each one of them.

How To Fix Ghost Flushing

If you think that your toilet is flushing on its own, or “ghost flushing”, the first thing you’ll want to do is check the toilet tank. If the water level in the tank is low, it’s possible that the toilet is not getting enough water to properly flush. This can be easily fixed by simply adding more water to the toilet tank.

If the toilet tank is full, then the problem may be with the float ball. The float ball is what tells the toilet when to stop running water into the tank. If the float ball is set too low, it may not be able to shut off the flow of water in time and cause ghost flushing. To fix this, you’ll need to adjust the float ball so that it’s set at the correct height.

If you’ve checked both of these things and your toilet is still ghost flushing, then it’s possible that there is a problem with the plumbing. In this case, you’ll need to call a plumber to take a look at your toilet.

How To Fix Fill Tube Problems

If your toilet is constantly filling up with water, it’s likely that there is a problem with the fill tube. The fill tube is the part of the toilet that fills up the tank with water. If it becomes clogged or damaged, it can cause problems with the toilet’s ability to flush correctly.

There are a few things you can do to try to fix a clogged or damaged fill tube:

  • If you notice that it’s disconnected from the Overflow Tube, just reconnect it.
  • Use a plunger to clear out any blockages in the fill tube.
  • Check for kinks or bends in the fill tube and straighten them out if necessary.
  • Replace the fill tube if it is damaged or clogged.

If you’re having trouble fixing the fill tube on your own, you may need to call a professional to help.

How To Fix Toilet Bowl Cracks

o confirm that the water is coming from a crack in the bowl, run your hand along the entire outer side of the bowl to feel for any leaking water. If your toilet bowl has a crack, there are a few things you can do to try to fix it:

  • We recommend to replace the toilet immediately.
  • But if you absolutely cannot, you may try using a sealant or epoxy to patch up the crack.

If you’re having trouble fixing the toilet bowl on your own, you may need to call a professional to help.

How To Fix Sewer Vent Line Blockages

Most sewer vents are located on the roof of the house. If they are not covered, they could become clogged with leaves or other debris. If your sewer vent line is blocked, there are a few things you can do to try to fix it:

  • Use a plunger or snake to clear the blockage.
  • Try using a toilet auger to clear the blockage.
  • Call a professional to help clear the blockage.

It’s important to keep your sewer vent line clear, as a blockage can cause problems with your plumbing system and lead to costly repairs. If you think you may have a blockage, it’s best to call a professional as soon as possible to take care of the problem.

How To Fix Fill Valve Problems

If you’re having toilet bowl problems, it may be due to a fill valve issue. Fill valves are responsible for bringing water into the toilet bowl and keeping it at the proper level. If the fill valve is not working properly, it can cause the toilet bowl to empty itself.

There are a few things you can do to try and fix fill valve problems:

  • Check the water supply: Make sure that the water supply to the toilet is turned on. If it’s not, turn it on and see if that solves the problem.
  • Check the float: The float is what tells the fill valve when to turn on and off. If the float is stuck or not working properly, it can cause the toilet bowl to empty itself. Try moving the float up or down to see if that fixes the problem.
  • Check the valve: If the fill valve is not opening or closing properly, it can cause the toilet bowl to empty itself. Try cleaning the valve and seeing if that solves the problem.

If you’re still having problems with your toilet bowl emptying itself, it’s best to call a plumber for help.

How To Fix Problems With The Toilet Tank’s Float

If the toilet tank’s float is stuck or not working properly, it can cause the toilet bowl to empty itself. Try moving the float up or down to see if that fixes the problem.

If it doesn’t, you may need to replace the float. It’s a very inexpensive part that can be purchased in most any hardware store or online. Just make sure to get the right kind of float for your toilet tank.
