After a week of trying to figure out what was causing the sound I discovered our downstairs toilet was the culprit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">After thinking about this situation a bit more, I began to contemplate that there was something caught in the vent stack that was causing the sound when the toilet was flushed. Again, the sound was so deep and hollow sounding I concluded it could not have been the cold water supply line.<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: left;\" width=\"50%\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">On the other hand, I was baffled on why only the toilet would cause this humming sound since all of the plumbing fixtures are in effect tied to the plumbing vent stack.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Today, however, I discovered I was partially wrong. When I flushed the toilet I lifted the lid on the toilet tank and watched and listened as the toilet tank filled. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">When the water reached the appropriate height to shut off, the toilet began to resonate with the crescendoing hum.<\/span><\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"47%\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/plumbing\/how-to-replace-toilet-tank-fill-valve-video\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6797 \" src=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Toilet_Flapper_2-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"How to fix a humming toilet tank fill valve.\" width=\"292\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Toilet_Flapper_2-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/12\/Toilet_Flapper_2.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 292px) 100vw, 292px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Watch this video on <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/plumbing\/how-to-replace-toilet-tank-fill-valve-video\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">Replacing a Toilet Tank Fill Valve<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">What I observed was that as the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/homeadditionplus.com\/dev\/plumbing\/toilet-tank-fill-valve-replacement\/\"><strong><span style=\"color: #0000ff; text-decoration: underline;\">toilet tank fill valve<\/span><\/strong><\/a><\/span> began to shut off, caused by the height of the float ball, the arm and float ball assembly began to vibrate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">As it increased in vibration the toilet tank began to hum in a low frequency growl.
