Some of you may recall that I had a major flooding issue in my home several months ago, due to a broken fill valve inside the upstairs toilet. I found out the likely cause from another board. DW had been using clorox toilet tank cleaners, the kind that are round and you drop into the tank, for years. What apparently happened is that this particular toilet, in the guest bedroom, was not used much, so the water evaporated leaving the remaining water highly chlorinated. Over the years this ate away at the PVC on the fill valve until it blew.
So my advice, never use clorox or any chlorinated product inside toilet tanks.
