15-Minute Installation Guide

STEP 1: Turn Off the Water and Empty the Tank

• Find the water supply valve coming out of the wall.
• Turn the valve clockwise to close.
• Flush the toilet to empty the tank. Hold the handle for a few seconds until most of the water is out.
• Optional: Use a sponge to soak up excess water.
• When water is removed from the tank, move to STEP 2.

STEP 3: Remove Old Fill Valve

NOTE: If there is still some water in the tank, have a bucket and towels ready.

• Below the tank: Remove the water supply connector from the tank by twisting it clockwise. This connector may have been wrench-tightened by the previous installer, though it should twist off easily. Have pliers handy just in case.
• Below the tank: Remove the old locknut, which holds the valve in place. Twist clockwise.
• Inside the tank: Unhook the old refill tube and clip. Remove the old fill valve.
• Allow any excess water to drain into the bucket.
• Wipe the tank’s valve port and the base of the tank with a shop towel to dry. This will help ensure a strong, leak-proof connection with the new valve.

STEP 4: Adjust Fill Valve Height

NOTE: When installed, the top of the fill valve cap should be about 3” above the top of the overflow pipe and NO LESS than 1” above the top of the pipe.

• Twist the shank clockwise to adjust the height. DO NOT move the lock ring.
• TIP: The higher the valve, the more water fills the tank.

STEP 5: Install New Fill Valve

• Place the fill valve in the tank with the refill port pointed toward the middle of the tank.
• Slide the refill tube onto the valve refill port.
• Attach refill clip onto refill tube; clip to overflow pipe with tube pointing into the pipe.
• TIP: If the refill tube is too long to fit inside the tank with the lid closed, remove the tube, cut to fit, and reinstall.
• Check the float cup on the valve to make sure it will slide up and down freely.
• Below the tank: Install locknut: IMPORTANT: HAND TIGHTEN ONLY! Over-tightening may damage the valve or the tank. Thread the locknut onto the pipe sticking out the bottom of the tank counterclockwise.

STEP 7: Check the Tank Water Level

The water level should fill to about one-half-inch below the overflow pipe.

• Too low? Turn the water level adjustment screw clockwise to adjust the float.
• Too high? Turn the water level adjustment screw counterclockwise to adjust the float.

Flush to reset the water level. If the toilet is flushing and refilling properly and there are no leaks, you’re all done!
