Recently, my toilet bowl hasn't been filling up with water and I noticed the white (or dirty white) line wasn't attached to anything. So I attached it directly to the hole that seemed to fit.
Looks like things are working now but I wanted to verify if this is how it is supposed to be?
Separate topic: The toilet's flushing mechanism needs to be held down 1-2 seconds in order to flush. I heard this was b/c of the tension on the flap. I tightened the tension however issue is still there. Are there any other solutions or do I need to change out the entire flushing assembly?
There isn't any adjustment in the flush mechanism you have. If you want it to flush differently you will likely need a different style flush valve. Keep in mind that it will affect the flush. What you have now provides a small, quick flush if you just press the handle. Holding it down allows a longer flush and uses more water. Flapper style flush valves will probably work but not as well with the small flushes
My sister has that type of valve in her toilet. It's rare and hard to find a replacement.
It is a great idea. It's the only flush valve that I know of where you can stop the toilet from flushing if the bowl fills up from being clogged by just lifting the handle up manually.
Hello All,
I replaced kitchen sink faucet with Delta Faucet 9113T-DST.
Had low flow cold side.
Swapped hot and cold lines at check valves, only.
I left check valves on shut off valves.
The low flow swapped cold to hot.
I did the "DST reverse flush"...Shut off cold, disconnected cold line at check valve, put cold line in bucket, turned faucet to warm and let warm water reverse flow out of cold line into bucket.
Replaced cartridge, no change to cold side low flow.
As it is a Touch Activated faucet, is there a valve between cartridge and cold line that could have something in it.
Can I feed fishing line/string trimmer line from cartridge side through to cold water line?
How do I resolve this?
Thanks.
I researched all the parts I would need to rebuild my temptrol.
As far as I could tell, there was an old style and a new style and I had the old style.
so, I thought I ordered all the old style parts I would need.
but when I took it apart, none of the new parts looked like the old parts and I have some extra parts.
I put the old parts back in and I will post photos so hopefully someone can tell me if I have the right parts and where they go.
