Odd Plumbing Problem
Moderators: Greg, Mark, mhrAJ333, JD
The other nite the wife let the water out of the kitchen sink,and the water in the toilet bowl emptied. Last nite after the kid took a bath she drained the tub and the bowl emptied again. We have been here 22 years and this is a first. We are on a septic and it was pumped last year. Any Ideas?
I wonder if they did have them. Our's is about the same vintage and does have the under the counter vents. It almost sounds to me like there is a vacuum being created that is pulling the water out of the bowl.
Is there a capped "T" above the traps under the counter ? If so I would bet that it did have vents there.

"If I can't fix it, I can screw it up so bad no one else can either."
Not exactly on topic, but I just remembered, when I first came to the US and was stuck with a plumbing blockage, I asked around in several stores where I could get something to unplug it, and kept getting blank stares when I asked for the item using the British slang of "trained worm". I ended up having to describe it before they figured I meant a "snake"!
I still think the UK version sounds quainter! (^-^)
