I suggest checking your home’s incoming water pressure first. I found I had 90 psi! Having a professional plumber install a pressure reducing valve solved several things- water hammer arrestors that didn’t work, showers that felt like you’re being sandblasted, premature failure of a washing machine inlet solenoid valve, etc. The toilet float can only supply a limited force to completely close the valve against incoming pressure.

Then the toilet started making noise! i'll have to fix it myself cause calling her is an invitation for bullying but I know the owners so I'm going to make some changes round here long-term...and meantime the noise. As if the the narcissistic selfish muffler less drivers and speeders (usually one in the same) on the street aren't enough torture.

Sam mine is a Kohler 1.28 it dont have a flapper. It have a long tube when you flush it the tube would lift and it flush. I ended up cleaning the valve where the water enter from the main water line. After I clean it it keep on hissing even more. I kept flushing and opening and closing the valve and then left it alone. Now it's gone not sure what happened.

looks good. that hose should be clipped inside the tube,tho. and, in that tube, you don't even need a clip, you can seed the fins inside designed to hold the tube in place. Well, the factory tube. That looks like an aftermarket fill valve, so, the tube could be too fat or too skinny. and for others, sometimes what wrecks those flappers is chemicals people put in the tanks. I could not find a plumber on youtube that recommended _any_ chemicals in the tank.

Hey from UK wanted to ask. I keep hearing ship/horn sound then filling noises and sudden shut off noise from what seems upstairs flat into my toliet room and into my bedroom this sound happens every 5mins-15mins non-stop driving me insane and leaving me sleepless. Sound itself is not coming from my high level ballcock toliet. it sounds like rooooaawwwww horn then filling and sudden stop. Like sound is above my head from flat above. But to add to mistery I filmed the sound from water pipe leading into my high level tank. So is it my toliet or theres? I called my landlord repairline and they sent plumber upstairs to replace part inside their toliet which looks like one from your video. But even as he was repairing I was hearing same noise. So could it be my high level ballock toliet that is faulty? He reccomended my high level toliet be rippped out and new one put in but he thinks theres asbestos in the old black toliet from 1998 so sample is went to lab to confirm and new high level will be fitted. If you can help with any insight thank you

@MoreThanMaintenance5 жыл бұрын
If the toilet is overfilling it is due to a faulty fill valve. This valve fills the toilet with water. I'm not sure what you are trying to imply at the end regarding water shutting off. There is a water valve angle stoo under the toilet by the supply line. Turn in to the right to shut off. Once you shut off the water flush your toilet and the water should stop filling toilet. Hope that helps.

If your bolts from your toilet flange are not rusted, and if your angle stop is not severely corroded, and if you have $300 laying around specifically to replace your toilet then MAYBE for you that is an option... 😅 however most people can spend $10-15 dollars and fix this in less than 5 minutes... without the hassle of having to lift the toilet if its an upstairs bathroom... up the stairs etc. Indeed you may find it more intimidating but honestly in regards to cost and labor the best solution really is replacing the fill valve. I thought you were going to say use the repair kit to fix the toilet fill valve but even then... the video here is self explanatory... turn off the water supply, pull up ring, pop fill valve, install new one follow procedure going backwards. 😀
