Toilet Flush Valve Seal Replacement

Introduction

However, the shortcut method may also be applied to many other brands of toilet flush valves.

This is a shortcut, time/labor-saving, method of installing a replacement "flush valve seal" to stop water inside the toilet tank from seeping/leaking down the drain (and the continuous, annoying sound that accompanies this water loss).

What you need

1. Step 1 Flush Valve Seal

   

   • This is the New Valve Seal used in this guide, available at hardware stores and home centers.

   • Using this New Seal installation shortcut method, it will NOT be necessary to do the following (of the original instructions that accompany the New Seal product): "Turn off water supply to toilet and drain tank" and "Unhook trip lever..." [any "chain" will need to be momentarily unhooked.] and "Unthread stop cap..." and "Lift float assembly off....."
