A tank trickling through the night quietly pours money down the drain on every water bill. Nearly always the culprit sits under the tank lid.
Phantom flushes
- If the toilet refills briefly every so often without anyone flushing, water is leaking from the tank into the bowl.
- A worn flapper or a rough flush valve seat is the usual cause.
- We replace the flapper, and if the seat is pitted we fit a seat repair kit or a new flush valve.
Clues it is this job
- Hiss from the tank at night
- Water trickling into the bowl
- Tank refills on its own
- Higher water bill without explanation
Constant running
- Water spilling steadily into the overflow tube tells us the fill valve is set high or has stopped sealing.
- We adjust the float or replace the valve.
Chain and handle
- An over-tight chain keeps the flapper from dropping onto its seat.
- One that is too long can get trapped under it.
- We set the slack so the flapper seals.
Aim for a water level roughly two and a half centimetres under the overflow rim.
