Summary
The toilet often produces a peculiar smell due to improper cleaning, which will affect our experience of use. This article will specifically introduce the method to remove the toilet odor.
There are many reasons for the peculiar smell of the toilet, a large part of the reason is caused by improper cleaning and incorrect installation of the sealing ring. The following is the specific method to remove the toilet odor.
Check all seals around the toilet
If you have a back-to-wall toilet pan or concealed waste toilet, you won’t be able to check the rubber pan seal. But if you can see the toilet pan collar where the toilet connects through the wall or floor, check the black rubber seal hasn’t deteriorated. The rubber flap prevents a manner of sewer gases. If it’s looking worse for wear or you can smell a bad smell the moment you bend to inspect, this needs to be replaced or re-sealed asap. It will most likely fix all your bad toilet smells.
Clean the toilet thoroughly
See if the toilet is not kept clean enough at ordinary times. If yes, use some toilet cleaner and disinfectant to clean the toilet well. And always pay attention to frequent cleaning. You can also consider placing a solid toilet ball or block in the water tank to help keep the toilet clean.
A clean toilet does wonders in eliminating smells. Remove the toilet seat (if you can) to give a thorough clean and eliminate any odors from uncontrolled hose sprays.
Give the inner cistern a cleanout
If the lid to your external toilet cistern can be easily removed, you can turn the water off, flush the toilet a few times to empty the water from the toilet cistern, and give the internal cistern a quick clean.
We don’t recommend pouring cleaners or vinegar into your cistern as this can soften the rubber seals and cause the cistern to leak water into the toilet pan. Some toilet cisterns accumulate sediment from stagnant water, which can cause a musty smell. This is more likely to happen during summer if the cistern sits on a wall that faces the sun, and when the house is vacant for holidays.
Choose a siphon toilet
There are two types of toilet flushing methods: straight flushing and siphoning. Generally speaking, the straight flushing taste is a bit big. This is related to the flushing method and the shape of the pipe. It is recommended that everyone should buy the siphon as much as possible because of the peculiar smell.
