If your toilet flapper didn’t close, the subsequent manifestation would be a twofold flush in the toilet bowl. At the point when the flapper won’t close, the cause could be:
a). The flapper adheres to the over stream pipe; the flapper is repaired against the flood pipe and not weaving by any means;
b). The flapper is being kept up via air and water coming up through the flush valve seat. Take note of: This is apparent when the flapper is moving and skimming over the seat yet won’t drop the distance down until the water level ascents in the tank;
c). The water from the fill valve can push the flapper to the other side or keep it open;
d) The chain is getting on the lever arm, or the chain is getting tangled keeping the flapper open;
e). The lever is old and staying, and thus it holds the flapper open, and
f). The outline of the flapper keeps the flapper open until the tank is exhausted. If the flapper adheres to the over stream pipe, utilize a fingernail document on the flapper outline where it touches the over stream pipe (as a rule over the clasps that connect to the posts on the over stream pipe). Record enough of the casing, so they don’t touch. You can put Vaseline on the clasps too to disallow staying. Flush a couple of times to check.
If the flapper is being kept up by the water spill out of the refill, you will see bubbles coming into the tank from the drain situate. Reset the edge of the water spill out of the point connector, so it hits the top within the over stream pipe. This will permit the flood of dilute to run the mass of the pipe and permit the flapper to close.
Spill out of the fill valve water coming into the tank can likewise miss-adjust a flapper or keep it open. You can turn the shank of the fill valve, so the surge of water is occupied around the flapper territory and after that flush to check.
On the off chance that the chain is getting on the lever arm and therefore keeping the flapper open there is a settle for this condition. We prescribe you utilize a drinking straw and slice it to 2/3rds the length of the chain. Append the straw onto the chain. This will shield the chain from wrapping around the lever arm. The flapper will at the end of the day open and close unreservedly. If the lever is old and staying, supplant it.
On the off chance that you are getting a twofold flush, you may have the wrong flapper in the tank and need a toilet flapper replacement. A 3.5 gallon for every flush or bigger toilet, (pre-1994) keeps the flapper open until the tank is discharged. It is likely that you require a 1.6 gallon for each flush sort flapper that is movable.
