Warning: In-Tank Toilet Cleaners Can Void Warranty

Posted By Cyrious Plumbing, LLC || 9-Dec-2015

For obvious reasons, many people strive to keep their toilet as clean as possible. To accomplish this goal, many turn to bleach-chlorine tablets, which are dropped into the toilet tank to clean the toilet with every flush. While they are a somewhat effective way to keep things clean, they can also cause severe damage and void your toilet’s warranty.

What Damage Can These Cleaners Cause?

In every toilet, there are quite a few rubber gaskets, seals, and washers. In-tank toilet cleaners cause chlorine to dissolve into the water, which is a highly corrosive chemical. Before long, the chlorine will begin to disintegrate these rubber components, preventing your toilet from functioning properly and causing major leaks.

Furthermore, since these tablets get smaller as they dissolve, they can ultimately interfere with the flushing mechanism. This will destroy your toilet’s ability to properly flush, and can require repairs and part replacement.

Alternatives to Caustic Cleaners

There are a number of alternatives to these drop-in toilet cleaners, many of which are far more effective. The classic standby is a brush and a bottle of toilet bowl cleaner, and we’ve found this to be the best all-around option. For those that truly enjoy the convenience of the in-tank tablets, consider a clip-in-bowl style option which dispenses cleaner with each flush. There are also alternative, self-contained options that also fit in the tank, although these are not without their faults.
