 The upstairs toilet in my dad's house whines/whistles when you flush it. Is this something to worry about? About 15 years ago the toilet broke in the night and did a bunch of damage to the floor/ceiling of the room below it. I'd hate for this to happen again.

I think he meant the water supply, not the DWV.
Is the sound coming from the wall or from the tank? It's probably just harmonic resonance in a valve or fitting and nothing to worry about.

I'm not quite sure. I will have to give a better listen next time I am there.
