The dung float gets stuck.

This is the second unit I've installed in less than two weeks and it sucks. The float is the problem. It gets stuck and it happens any time of the day or night! It was frustrating and I'm so upset at the poor quality. Trouble is after reading other reviews of other toilet fixtures they are all rubbish! I think the outhouse is in my future! This will definitely save water, although my neighbors might not be happy!

Pros
  • Adjustable valve height and damper lever fits most toilets
Cons
  • Unnecessary features

Easy installation for toilet parts

I have an old curved toilet tank and it cleans with no problem. Better quality than previous kits I've used. Filling up a tank that's running intermittently will waste water and send too much water into your septic tank. I found a universal Korky #6051 handle kit to fit this old curved toilet that will help you have all the new parts in the old tank as well.

Pros
  • Fix noisy, running toilets with this PerforMAX 3" Flush Valve Kit
Cons
  • Negative Gift

Toilet cistern filling valve

Decent quality and easy enough to install the whole thing, but once installed I found that you can simply replace the top half of the section meaning you don't even have to unscrew the nut from the bottom. The bottom tube stays attached to the bottom of the tank and the old top slides up and down while the new top slides down the bottom tube. This is possible because usually only the membrane is defective, and then in the upper part. If water continues to flow into the tank, the diaphragm isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • 3 inch adjustable water saving flap kit
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Relatively easy to install and adjust, excellent instructions

This Fluidmaster PerforMax 400CAR3 replaced a Korky fill valve that was installed four years ago. It started to repeatedly start/stop the flow of water as the tank filled with water. I thought it might stop working at any moment. I've installed fill valves before, so I'm not new to this process. I used the printed manual anyway, which is very well thought out, with good graphics and large, crisp print. What surprised me about this Fluidmaster model is the advanced settings that are easy toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Anti-siphon design, code approved
Cons
  • Faulty

A damper was used but the flow control was too high for our one-piece toilet

Ironically, the damper was used in another brand new toilet. We just disassembled and remodeled our master bath. The damper is adjusted by turning the ball under the damper. I could adjust this damper. but the other one on the newly installed toilet was designed not to be adjustable. There is a retaining ring on the inside that is glued to the ball. Removed a fairly new one, put the flap on #5 and the toilet flush works great. The flow regulator will also save, it is exactly the same as in theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Effective control of usage and water level
Cons
  • Modern
