The Blue Toilet Water Attack - Julius Ballanco
/ Plumbing & Mechanical - November 2, 2001
"Studies have shown that high concentrations of Clorox Automatic, 2000 Flushes, and Vanish Drop-Ins Clear used in your toilet tank can damage the flapper. If the flapper is damaged, water will leak continuously. This will result in a significant increase in your water bill, as well as, the need for a costly plumbing repair. If you use these products, follow the manufacturer's instructions and do not allow a high concentration of the chemicals to form in the toilet tank."
