Default Today's flood

The owner left after flushing this commode, and a seam on the press tank split. The water never shut off and soaked this bath and two rooms directly below

No, the homeowners have only been living in this house for a year or so. The man. date on the tank is 1995. It will cost more to replace the split tank than to replace the commode.

Ahhh one of them exploding toilets by Kohler...

I think Kohler gives $150 off on the purchase of a new kohler toilet when you have one of them...

That is exactly the reason you should never tell blonde jokes in the restroom.

You never know what's gonna bust a seam laughing.

Looks like you have lots of room to work on that thing. Minimum toilet clearence in FL is 30"finish walls. My knees and I would have a problem using that toiletry. Looks more like maybe 24"?

You're assuming there has ever been someone with some kind of measuring device near this bathroom.
