We have a vacation house where the toilets are getting clogged at the rim with hard water deposits. The guy at the hardware store suggested we use
2000 flushes in the bowl to clear it, I wanted to use a little muriatic acid. The 2000 flushes made it worse, a lot worse. I got rid of the 2000 flushes and flushed the toilet about a dozen times each time adding a couple of tablespoons of muriatic acid to the tank The tank had already needed an overhaul prior to this as there was a constant leak into the bowl partly because the flapper didnt seat properly and partly because the valve would not shut off. The acid made easy work of the clogged rim and the overhaul stopped the wasted water. I am happy.
