Slow Draining: Easy 5 Seconds Toilet Flush Test and Solving the Slow Flush Mystery


Did you know that there are 3 different kinds of openings in your toilet? I tried using plunger, auger and snake but nothing worked (the flush/draining is just very slow). For a long time, I was trying to figure out the mystery of slow flush in my toilet, and finally I found the explanation and solution. I have discovered this easy 5-second test, which will save your time and money by diagnosing the problem. This is my major contribution to the subject, let’s call it Dr. David Zhang’s 5-second test. I know this 5-second test will not get me a Nobel Prize, but we hope just as many people will benefit because Dr. Zhang’s test is very simple, easy and costs you absolutely nothing. There is no need to clean your toilet if it passed my simple 5 seconds test, otherwise you need to take actions.

I will also present two different ways to fix your slow toilet flushing problem.

This video is trying to solve the problem of “slow flushing, slow draining”. If your problem is “no flushing”, i.e. completely clogged/
blocked main drain, please view my previous video:
16 Ways To Unclog A Toilet (Main drain clogged)

We apologize in advance for the dirty toilet because we could not completely clean the bowl until the problem was fixed. If our bowl under test were a clean one, we would not have had the more than 10 seconds time.

We understand that many people would just call the plumber whenever there is a problem. We agree with you paying someone if it is a clogged main hole. This 5-second test is very easy, it would tell you if it is siphon hole problem. If your toilet passed the test (5 seconds), you then call your plumber to fix the main hole problem. If it fails the test (10 seconds), you just pour some liquid down saving you the time. It does not hurt to perform this test before you call your plumber. It not only save you the money but also the time and trouble.
