Hi Neek...

Have you or anyone else done a LEAK TEST at the toilets? If not, take some food coloring and drip about 10-20 drops inside the TOILET TANK ONLY. Let that sit for a couple hours and then check to see if there is any dye coloring in the TOILET BOWL. If any color in the bowl you have most likely found the leak. These leaks, however small, can add up to real money quickly!

Try the dye test for all your toilets and report back with your results... OK?
