What sound does a flushing toilet make?
There may be an instance when you flush your toilet and then a loud, banging sound resonates from it. This sound, often referred to as “water hammer,” may indicate relatively high water pressure in the supply lines. It could also mean that the flow of water into the toilet tank is somehow restricted.

How much water does it take to flush a toilet?
I recently upgraded one older toiled that took a minute to flush with 3.5 gallons of water to 1.2 GPF model with “aquapiston” marketing blurb. All nice and dandy, except this piston started shooting stuff up another toilet’s pipe on the other side of the wall, causing it to gurgle.
How can I Make my Toilet Flush faster?
@beast solution is the first that came to mind. Another way to improve this, would be to connect vent pipe from close to each WC UPWARDS to the vend stack above the height was the wc. Get a toilet that flushes slower thus stopping water from surging into the waste line on the other side of the cross.

What do you do when your toilet flushes?
To do this, you’ll need to drain the pipes of water. Start by turning off the main water supply to your home, then flush every toilet, turn on every faucet, and run your washer for a few minutes. Once your pipes are empty of all water, open your home’s main water valve and turn back on your faucets.
Why does my toilet make a gurgling sound when I flush?
A flushing toilet makes a very specific sound, and when it does something out of the ordinary, it’s hard not to notice. Gurgling is not an unusual complaint from a toilet, but it shouldn’t be ignored. If your toilet gurgles when you flush it or on its own, you may also notice water bubbling back up into the bowl.
Why do I hear a running valve on my toilet?
The “running” you hear is likely the fill valve. Perhaps the fluctuation of your water supply pressure when one toilet’s fill valve opens is causing the other toilet fill valve to momentarily leak-by or open.
