    Bubbles in toilet
    The toilet is bubbling, this appear to be an occasional problem, mainly in the mornings. Air bubbles rise and the toilet is slow to empty. Using other area in the house, kitchen sink and shower there are also air bubbles after the applianace is emptied. Can I fix this problem? Or is it a job for a plumber?

    Hey Sheridan,

    You have a partial blockage. I'm attempting to find out where. Are you on a city sewer or a septic tank? Is the only place that bubbles the toilet or are there other places? Let us know. Tom

    The system is connected to the city sewage. I can hear bubbles in both the kitchen sink and the shower when they are being used.

    I do not even have to be using any of the facilities for the bubbles in the toilet to happen. In fact I woke up this morning to the sound of the bubbles rising.
