in THE MAIN WALL
Okay, you guys have taught me all about steam systems and most recently about backflow valves on sewer lines. So here is the next problem that I need advice on. I cannot put a backflow valve on my sewer line as it is buried under the concrete in the basement. Including the trap. Is there anything that can be installed under or on the toilet to keep the water from backing up through it when we get these awful rain storms. I have a valve put on the floor drain and that seems to have stopped the water there..
Thanks again
Irene

    You could use a Cherne blow up test ball

    toilet

    How does that work? Is it something that could be used to temporarily block the toilet and then be removed?
