How to fix your leaky American Standard Toilet Cheap 

Thanks for watching! After installing the new gasket I thought that was it. My wife began to complain she could hear water running. I checked and checked thenn saw some small bubbles around the perimeter of the cap. I am not sure if I will be able to achieve a perfect seal. I had an overage charge of 60k litres which was appaling. Might have to do a follow up video as I made a lot of money for these two toilets and for having them installed. Very bad design and I would not recommend this brand

Hi Steven, glad it was of use to you. It is not a perfect solution as in mho it is badly designed. I found that after the fix small bubbles continued to appear around the cap/seal. I jiggled it into place avoided further unnecessary water usage. Cheers Charlie

Still not 100% happy with them, still leaks every now and again

😂😂😂 You are dead right. I am not completely happy with the product, the seal does not work 100%. It cost me a lot of money to have the toilets installed not to mention the high cost of wasted water. Thanks for posting the note. Cheers

the replacement flaps provided aren’t 100% either

@@dalemihocik4732 The toilets were installed by a license plumber. I never paid any attention to them until I began to receive letters from the water dept in our municipality informing us that we were using a substantial about of water and even then I didn’t think there was an issue after testing every faucet in the house. A few months passed and I received another letter regarding over usage. It was only then that I paid more attention and listened to my wife when she said the toilets are running. That is when I noticed that there were bubbles around the flap. I turned the water supply off, waited a while and sure enough the water had drained out. I went to Home Depot where I had purchased them, they told me I should call the manufacturer. When I did and explained the problem they said they would send my new flaps without any question. I had difficulty installing them as they were a different design. I eventually figured it out and thought that was the end of it Unfortunately those toilet still run occasionally as the seal does not work properly. I have not called the manufacturer back but I will. I need to get this solved as I do nit want to buy new toilets and pay a few hundred dollars to have them installed. As for the seal, I think there could be a better design. Having said all that I appreciate you taking the time to write.

it’s not the flush, they don’t deal well and this causes it to run every now and then I received a water bill for 60,000 litres for one period

@@NuFlush1 The tank gets filled after every flush, that dies nothing to fix the leaking flap
