Product Description
Gravity tank-to-bowl gaskets, hardware, and kits are essential for installing new toilets or replacing old parts in existing ones. Gaskets, made of rubber or plastic, create a tight water seal between the tank and the bowl. Over time, they can wear out and cause leaks, so replacement may be needed. Hardware components like nuts, bolts, and washers connect the tank to the bowl. They should be replaced if they crack, corrode, or don't fit properly due to stripped threads. These gravity-tank repair parts can fix leaks and restore proper flushing, saving you the cost of replacing the whole toilet. They are suitable for gravity-fed tanks in homes, apartments, hotel rooms, and other low-traffic areas (20 - 30 flushes per day). Signs that your toilet tank needs repair include leaking, continuous running, and flushing problems.
Using this American Standard toilet tank to bowl kit is quite straightforward. First, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, empty the tank by flushing the toilet. Remove the old gaskets and hardware carefully. Install the new gaskets, making sure they fit snugly between the tank and the bowl. Use the provided nuts, bolts, and washers to connect the tank to the bowl tightly. After installation, turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks. Remember to handle the parts gently to avoid damage. For maintenance, periodically check the gaskets and hardware for signs of wear or damage. If you notice any issues, replace the parts promptly to keep your toilet in good working condition.
