The bowl itself requires a pretty regular, thorough cleaning, for obvious reasons. But you don’t need to clean the tank quite as often. It’s best to clean the tank twice a year. Add it to your spring cleaning checklist, and do it again in the fall. Cleaning the tank regularly is just one more step for maintaining your toilet; it will help keep rust and corrosion from building up on the internal parts, extending the life of your toilet.
It’ll also mean one less odor you have to worry about in your bathroom.
