You are quite welcome. I am so glad it helped. Could you imagine it setting there until the water was turned back on? 😟

Thanks for this! The ball float in my tank broke and no one locally (I'm a bit in the sticks) sells them separately. I had to order one online that will be here in a few days. I was pretty sure this was how to manually flush a toilet but I wasn't sure. Your video was so clear and right-to-the-point. Many thanks!

Good point Peggy. Folks, if a storm is coming, you must take precautions. Peggy, we got hit with an ice storm here in Raleigh years ago and were without power for 7 days. Fortunately we had a pool that we’d grab “toilet water” from.

I'm so glad this helped. You may just have to haul in buckets for flushing which is a pain but it'll be a lot more sanitary. Tanks so much for watching. See what I did there? Tanks? Like toilet tank? Instead of thanks? Okay, corny pun. But I do appreciate you watching.

@@SwimDeeep great question. You can add to the tank or directly to the bowl. But, you’re right. If you’re adding to the bowl, it has to be enough water at the right speed to get that flush. If you’re adding to the tank, fill to the stain line of the tank. Stay safe and warm! Thanks so much for watching.

Have you ever lost water for an extended length of time? We experienced an ice storm that hit the Carolinas with a vengeance in January of 2000. While some were without power for 2 weeks, we were without power (and therefore water) for 7 days. Fortunately we had a pool so we scooped water for flushing out of the pool. How 'bout you?

Can we add water to the top tank and then just fluah or is this better?

You sure can. However, tank lids are hard to replace if they are dropped so folks prefer this way to reduce the risk of damage. Great question. Thanks so much for watching.

Sue, would you have any access to another water source? Like a swimming pool or a creek or stream? I realize it’s a pain but can be a quick solution until they get the water working again.

You got this. Practice with fresh water in an empty bowl first. When you see how it works, step up to tinkle, then finally flush the big guy. You can do it; especially in a pinch.
