American Standard Flapper, Fits Brand American Standard, For Use with Series Cadet III(R), Toilets, Gravity Tanks - 738920-0070A

Gravity-tank flappers and seals play a crucial role in gravity-flush toilets. They cover the outlet that allows water to leave the tank and fill the toilet bowl. When you flush, the flapper lifts to release water, and then reseats to keep water in the tank. The seals form a tight ring around the flapper. These parts are great for replacing worn or warped flappers and seals that no longer seal properly, preventing toilets from running continuously. Gravity-tank repair parts are a cost - effective solution. They help fix leaks and restore proper flushing in gravity - flush toilets, saving you the expense of replacing the whole toilet. These toilet tank parts are perfect for homes, multifamily residences, hotel rooms, and other low - traffic areas with 20 to 30 flushes per day. If your toilet is leaking, running constantly, or not flushing properly, it's a sign that you may need to replace these parts.

Using this American Standard flapper is easy. First, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, remove the old flapper and seal from the tank. Place the new flapper in position and make sure it fits snugly. Attach the seal around the flapper to create a tight seal. After that, turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks. When using this flapper, always make sure the water supply is turned off before any installation or replacement work. Also, avoid using harsh chemicals to clean the flapper as they may damage it. For maintenance, check the flapper and seal regularly for signs of wear. If you notice any cracks, warping, or improper sealing, it's time to replace them. This will help keep your toilet in good working condition and prevent water wastage.
