One of our commodes has been leaking around the base, even after tightening the mounting bolts, so I'm assuming there's an issue with the wax ring. It's about 4 years old.
Thing is, it's not a constant leak. It'll be dry as a bone for a week, then suddenly there's half a cup of water leaking out around the base. Then it'll stop for a week, then happen again. I'm not an expert, but it seems to me like if the wax ring were leaking, it would leak all the time, wouldn't it?
I just wanted to check before getting involved in replacing that wax ring.
Thanks,
