How to Clean & Service a Korky QuietFill Toilet Fill Valve
updated
Did you know that the toilet flapper is the #1 issue leading to running and leaking toilets? The flapper is found inside of the toilet tank and is attached to the flush valve. When the toilet is flushed, the chain connecting the toilet flapper to the flush lever lifts the flapper to allow water stored in the tank to flow to the bowl, washing away the waste. When the tank has emptied, the flapper will close, allowing the tank to refill with water. Over time, a flapper can become worn and allow water to leak from the tank into the bowl, resulting in water waste. Replacing a flapper is an easy project and can be done without the assistance of a plumber. Before you begin, it’s helpful to know the differences in flapper types and sizes. There are two flapper sizes: 2” and 3”. The 2” flapper is the most common, while the 3” flapper can be found in some toilets manufactured since 2000. You can determine your flapper size by measuring the diameter of the flush valve opening. Some flappers are adjustable and allow you to control the amount of water that is flushed. This adjustment can allow you to match the flush volume of the toilet’s original flapper to ensure optimal flushing performance. If your toilet has a 3” flush valve, the adjustable Korky 3060 flapper will fit your toilet. If your toilet has a 2” flush valve, you will want to take some other factors into consideration. Most 2” flush valves can be repaired with a “universal” flapper such as the Korky 100 or 2017 flapper. These adjustable flappers are the preferred choice because they allow the user to adjust the flush volume to accommodate both low-flow toilets (1.6 or less gallons per flush) and older toilets (3.5+ gallons per flush). The 2017 flapper is made from long lasting, premium materials and is backed by a 10 year warranty. Some 2” flush valves, especially those found in one-piece Kohler toilets, require specialty flappers, meaning the flapper design is unique to a specific flush valve design. If you’re unsure what type of toilet flapper you need, Korky’s Toilet Genius tool is a good resource for determining the correct specialty flapper. Still have questions?

This video will provide an overview of the parts of the toilet. Toilets consist of two sections: the tank and the bowl. Most toilet tanks are bolted to the toilet bowl. A tank-to-bowl gasket creates a watertight seal between the tank and bowl to allow water to flow from the tank to the bowl when the toilet is flushed. The toilet tank has several key parts: the flush valve, the flapper, the fill valve, and the flush lever. The flush valve, flapper, and flush lever work together to send water from the tank into the bowl to wash waste into the floor drain. The flapper is attached to the flush valve mounting arms and creates a seal on the flush valve opening. The flapper chain is connected to the flush lever arm. When the flush handle is activated, the flapper is lifted from the flush valve opening and allows water from the tank to flow into the toilet bowl, washing away the waste. In recent years, some toilet manufacturers have replaced the flapper-style flush valve with a canister-style flush valve. These valves use a seal instead of a flapper to create a seal on the flush valve opening. As the water begins to exit the tank, the fill valve (sometimes called a ballcock) is activated and replenishes the water in the tank. When the tank is full, the fill valve turns off. When wastewater is pushed out of the bowl, it passes through an outlet on the bottom of the bowl that empties into the floor drain. A seal (traditionally made with wax but now often made with rubber and foam) ensures that the wastewater passes into the drain without leaking onto the floor.
Did you know that the toilet flapper is the #1 issue leading to running and leaking toilets? Don’t worry, changing a flapper is easy. No need for a plumber. Neglecting a leaking flapper can result in costly water waste. Here are a few tips to identifying a flapper leak. Step 1: take a cloth and wipe the sealing surface of the flush valve. Deposits can stick to the flush valve opening and prevent the flapper from sealing. Step 2: check the flapper chain. The chain should be as close to vertical as possible and have minimal slack. Step 3: place a couple drops of food coloring in your toilet tank. Wait 15 mins and check your toilet bowl. If the bowl water changed color, you have a leaky flapper and it’s time for a replacement.

Hello and welcome to Korky toilet repair!
Today we will show you how to install the Fits Mansfield Tower style flush valve. The first step is to shut off the water supply to your toilet. Then, flush and hold the lever down to drain the water from your tank. Place a bucket underneath your toilet tank to catch any excess water. Disconnect your water supply line. Sponge out the remaining water in your toilet tank.
Now, locate and remove all nuts, bolts, and washers from the toilet tank. A wrench may be needed to remove the nuts. Carefully lift up on the tank and remove it from the bowl. Remove the gasket from the bowl and use the large adjustable wrench to loosen the mounting nut. Place the new flush valve with the rubber seal inside the tank. Then, use the wrench to tighten the mounting nut. Place your old sponge gasket over the mounting nut. Carefully place the tank back onto the bowl.
Take your old nuts, bolts, and washers and secure the tank to the bowl. Apply downward pressure to keep the tank level as you tighten the nuts in an alternating fashion until the tank is stable. Do not over tighten the nuts. Doing so may cause the tank to crack. Next twist cap counterclockwise to remove. Then, remove the tower from the base. Locate the dial on the underside of the tower. If your original flush valve was black rotate the dial by using the tabs so that the bump setting lines up with 2. If your original flush valve was white locate the date stump on the back wall of the tank. Use the chart to determine which setting you need and adjust to align with the number and the bump. Reassemble the tower, then thread the lever arm throw the valve loop. Replace the cap and twist clockwise. Then insert the refill tube into the cap. Reconnect the water supply line. Turn the water supply on. Let the tank fill completely.

Hello and welcome to Korky Toilet Repair! Today we are going to install your new Korky Platinum Complete Toilet Repair Kit.
The first step is to shut off the water supply to your toilet. Next, flush your toilet. Mark the water level in the tank with a pencil. Hold the handle down to drain the excess water. Sponge out the remaining water in your toilet tank. Place a bucket underneath your tank to catch any excess water. Disconnect the water supply line and remove the mounting nut. Remove the old fill valve.
Locate and remove all old nuts, bolts & washers from the tank. Carefully lift up on the tank and remove it from the bowl. Note: The new gasket may look different than your old one, but it will replace virtually all shapes and thicknesses. Remove the old gasket. Remove the old mounting nut and pull the old flush valve & flapper out of the tank. Place your new Korky flush valve into the tank and slide the chipboard washer over the threads. Hand-tighten the mounting nut. Place the new gasket over the mounting nut threads.
Carefully set the tank onto the bowl. The new gasket may be thicker than your old one, causing the tank to sit higher and wobble. This is normal - the gasket is designed to compress. Use the new bolts, rubber washers, washers and hex nuts in the packaging to attach the tank to the bowl. It may be helpful to have a second person apply downward pressure to keep the tank level as you tighten the nuts in an alternating fashion. Tighten until the tank stops wobbling or until the tank and bowl touch, whichever comes first. Do not overtighten, doing so may cause the porcelain to crack. Next, set the height of the flush valve. Loosen the locknut and extend the overflow tube until the top of the overflow tube is 1" below the flush lever nut. Then hand-tighten the locknut.
Turn the top of your new fill valve counterclockwise and pull up to fully extend. Place the valve in the tank and push down until the corner of the silver cover lines up with the top of the flush valve. Lock the fill valve in place by twisting the upper half clockwise. Make sure the rib on the top of the fill valve lines up with the pegs on the bottom half.
Place the locked valve in the tank, screw on the mounting nut, insert the metal clip into the refill tube and attach the clip to the flush valve. Make sure the refill tube has a direct path to the fill valve. Trim the tube if needed and then attach to the fill valve.
And reattach the water supply line. Turn the refill adjuster clockwise to the fully open position. Attach the flapper chain to the flush lever with minimal slack. Turn the water supply on and wait for the tank to fill completely. Turn the water supply off and flush. If the water drops within 1/2" of the pencil mark, your flapper installation is finished.
If not, rotate the band to the open position and reinstall the flapper. Turn the water supply on and let the tank refill completely. Turn the water supply off and flush. If your water level is still not within 1/2" of the pencil mark, adjust the dial so that the next lowest number aligns with the arrow. Then, reinstall your flapper. Turn the water supply on and let the tank refill completely. Turn the water supply off and flush. Repeat this process until the water level drops within 1/2" of the pencil mark. Turn the water supply on and let the tank refill completely and flush. Wait 2 minutes for the water in the bowl to settle, the excess water will drain out. Mark the water level in the bowl with a pencil or dry erase marker. Flush. If the bowl water level reaches the mark before the tank is finished filling, turn the dial counterclockwise to reduce flow.

Hello and Welcome to Korky Toilet Repair. Today we are going to install your new Korky fill valve and flapper kit. Before we get started, let's talk about what makes the Korky Smart valve different. All other fill valves will continue to bring more water into your tank if there is a worn flapper causing a slow leak or flapper hang up resulting in a severe costly leak. When a leak is detected, the Korky Smart valve turns itself off.
The first step is to shut off the water supply to your toilet. Hold the handle down to drain the excess water. Sponge out the remaining water in the toilet tank. Remove the old flapper, install the new flapper. Attach the flapper ears to the tabs of the flush valve. Then, attach the flapper chain to the flush lever with minimal slack. Place a bucket underneath your tank to catch the excess water. Disconnect the water supply line and remove the mounting nut. Remove the old valve. Turn the top of the new fill valve counter-clockwise and pull up to fully extend. Place the valve in the tank and press down until the corner of the red cover lines up with the top of the flush valve. Lock that fill valve in place by twisting the upper half clockwise. Make sure the rib on the top of the valve lines up with the pegs on the bottom half. Attach the red chain to the tilt cup tab on the side that provides a direct path to the flush lever. The red chain is unique to the Korky Smart valve, it's purpose is to reset the valve if it detects a leak. Place the locked valve in the tank. Screw on the mounting nut. Next, hold down the handle as if you were flushing. Extend the red chain to the flush lever hole next to the flapper chain. Attach the hook to the chain and then attach the to the flush lever. If there is no direct path to the flush lever, attach the hook to the fourteenth chain link and then clip to the cover of the fill valve. Now, press down on the handle as if you were flushing. Provide enough lack so the that the tilt cup tilts and the flapper lifts when you flush. This will allow the fill valve reset properly if there is a leak. Adjust the chain length if needed. Insert the metal clip into the refill tube and attach onto the clip to the flush valve. Make sure the refill tube has a direct path to the fill valve. Trim the tube if needed and then attach to the fill valve. Reattach the water supply line. Turn water supply line on and wait for the tank to refill completely.

Hello, today we are going to be showing you how to correctly plunge a toilet. To start, you need to make sure you are using the correct plunger. A common mistake people make is assuming this plunger is used for toilets, when really it is used to unclog sinks. You can see by the wide, flat hole on the plunger that this is designed for a sink, and not a toilet. The correct toilet plungers have a smaller, more pliable, opening that allows it to create a seal around the toilet hole. Older toilets have a round toilet outlet that a standard toilet plunger will work great for. A majority of newer toilets however, have an elongated outlet that requires a flexible plunger to get a good seal to effectively plunge. Due to the pliability of the rubber, the Beehive makes a tight seal on any toilet hole, and the larger size allows for more pressure with less effort, making it the most powerful plunger on the market. Once you have the necessary plunger, begin by inserting your plunger at a 45-degree angle to allow water to enter the plunger head. This is important because it prevents splashing, as well as preventing water from overflowing when the toilet bowl is full. Next, tilt the plunger to an upright angle in order to seal the plunger to the bowl outlet, and begin the push pull movements to unclog the trapway. Even though most people think the power is in the push, it is really in the pull movement. For the most efficient and clean plunge, it is best to pulse. You want to push and pull without breaking the seal of the plunger to the hole. Once the toilet is unclogged, proceed by flushing the toilet to make sure the trapway is cleared. Now that you have all the knowledge, happy plunging!
Today we will show you how to install Universal Toilet Handle.
We’ll start by detaching the chain from the lever arm and removing your old lever. The locking nut is reserve threaded.
Remove the two red locking clips and set them aside for later.
Separate the arm and elbow.
Then remove the mounting nut.
The mounting nut is reverse threaded, right for loose, left for tight
The handle can be mounted in various ways: angled mount, front mount, and side mount.
Insert the handle assembly into the tank hole and secure the nut on the inside of the tank.
Attach the elbow at the angle shown.
Position the arm parallel to the front of the tank then attach the lever arm to the elbow.
Insert the locking clips.
The clips can be installed on either side.
To attach the flapper chain, clip it to the lever with minimal slack.
Do not pull the lever arm down to attach the chain.
You may need to cut the excess chain.
If the chain is short of your lever arm try adjusting the elbow’s angle like this.
Replace the lid & flush your toilet to make sure the toilet bowl clears properly.
The lever should not touch any other parts in your toilet tank. If your lever arm is hitting the lid adjust the elbow angle
For other premium handle design and finishes, Korky also offers the StrongARM line of levers.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed your new Universal toilet handle.
Thank you for choosing Korky.

Hello, and welcome to Korky Toilet Repair. Today we are going to install your NEW Korky Fill Valve. Before we get started, let's talk about what makes the Korky Smart Valve different. All other fill valves will continue to bring water into the tank if there is a worn flapper causing a slow leak or flapper hang up resulting in a severe and costly leak. When a leak is detected, the Korky Smart Valve turns itself off. If you notice when you go to flush your tank is empty, the Smart Valve has saved you water and money by detecting a leak. Need to flush? No problem, just hold down the lever for a few seconds to reset the valve and your back to flushing.
Now, onto the installation. Shut off the water supply to your toilet. Place a bucket underneath your tank to catch any excess water. Disconnect your water supply line and remove the mounting nut. Remove the old fill valve. Turn the top of your new fill valve counterclockwise and pull up to fully extend. Place the valve in the tank and press down until the corner of the red cover lines up with the top of the flush valve. Lock the fill valve in place by twisting the upper half clockwise. Make sure the rib on the top of the valve lines up with the pegs on the bottom half. Attach the red chain to the tilt cup tab on the side that provides a direct path to the flush lever. The red chain is unique to the Korky Smart Valve. It's purpose is to reset the valve if it detects a leak. Place the lock valve in the tank. Screw on the mounting nut.
Next, hold down the handle as if you were flushing. Extend the red chain to the flush lever hole next to the flapper chain. Attach the hook to the chain then attach to the flush lever. If there is no direct path to the flush lever, attach the hook to the fourteenth chain link then clip to the cover of the fill valve. Now, press down on the handle as if you were flushing. Provide enough slack so that the tilt cup tilts and the flapper lifts when you flush. This will allow the fill valve to reset properly if there is a leak. Adjust the chain length if needed. Insert the metal clip into the refill tube and attach the clip to the flush valve. Make sure the refill tube has a direct path to the fill valve. Trim the tube if needed and then attach to the fill valve. Reattach the water supply line. Turn the water supply back on and wait for the tank to refill completely.
Congratulations, you’ve successfully installed your NEW Korky Fill Valve.

Hello and Welcome to Korky Toilet Repair. Today we are going to install your new Korky QuietFILL Complete Toilet Repair Kit. The first step is to shut off the water supply to your toilet. Hold the handle down to drain the excess water. Sponge out the remaining water in your toilet tank. Place a bucket underneath your toilet tank to catch any excess water. Disconnect your water supply line and remove the mounting nut. Remove the old fill valve.
Locate and remove all old nuts, bolts, and washers from the toilet tank. Carefully lift up on the tank and remove it from the bowl. Note, the new gasket may look different than your old one but it will replace all shapes and thicknesses. Remove the old gasket.
Remove the old mounting nut and pull the old flush valve and flapper out of the toilet tank. Place your new Korky flush valve into the toilet tank, and slide the chipboard washer over the threads. Hand-tighten the mounting nut. Place the new gasket over the mounting nut threads. Carefully set the tank onto the bowl. The new gasket may be thicker than your old one causing the tank to sit higher and wobble. This is normal, the gasket is designed to compress. Use the new bolts, rubber washers, washers, and hex nuts, included in the packaging to attach the tank to the bowl. It may be helpful to have a second person apply downward pressure to keep the tank level as you tighten the nuts in an alternating fashion. Tighten until the tank stops wobbling or until the tank and bowl touch, which ever comes first. Do not over tighten the nuts; doing so may cause the porcelain to crack.
Next, set the height of the flush valve. Loosen the locknut and extend the overflow tube until the top of the overflow tube is one inch below the flush lever nut, then hand-tighten the locknut. Now, turn the top of your new fill valve counter clockwise and pull up to fully extend. Place the valve in the tank and press down on the fill valve until the corner of the white cover lines up with the top of the flush valve. Lock the fill valve in place by twisting the upper half clockwise. Make sure the rib on the top of the valve lines up with the pegs on the bottom half. Place the locked valve in the tank.
Screw on the mounting nut. Insert the metal clip into the refill tube and attach the clip to the flush valve. Make sure the refill tube as a direct path to the fill valve. Trim the tube if needed and then attach to the fill valve. Then attach the flapper chain to the flush lever with minimal slack. Reattach the water supply line. Turn the water supply on and wait for the tank to fill completely.

Hello, and welcome to “How To” with Korky.
Today we’ll be teaching how to plunge a sink with the mini sink and drain plunger.
First, make sure all the vents, and drains in your sink have been blocked with a wet rag.
Every sink is different, and vents come in various forms. The most common include sink overflows and dish washer vents. Make sure you’ve blocked all of them to insure a proper seal.
Remove any pop up drains. Make sure the sink has enough water to cover the rubber base of the plunger.
Angle the plunger into the sink and let the head fill with water as you completely cover the drain.
Pulse the plunger in an up and down motion for 10 to 15 seconds. Then break the plungers seal.
If the sink does not drain then repeat this process until the water starts to drain and the clog clears.
Once the clog has been cleared run hot water to clear an additional debris that may be left over. This will prevent future clogs.
Congratulations you’ve successfully plunged your sink.
This was “How To” with Korky.

To prep the new lever, remove the hook and red locking clip on the end. Set these aside for later.
Insert the handle in the tank holding the handle level, then attach the mounting nut. While holding the handle lever, attach the elbow at a 30 degree angle from the top of the tank.
Once you have the angle, attach the arm to the elbow running parallel to the tank. Insert the locking clips. They can be inserted on either side.
Use the provided hook and attach the chain with minimal slack to the center of the lever. Do not pull the arm down to attach chain. If the chain is short, adjust the elbow angle.
Replace the lid and flush. Confirm the bowl clears. The lever should not touch other parts of the tank. If the lever arm hits the lid, adjust the elbow angle.
TOWER STYLE
If you have a tower style flush vale, twist off the valve top. Then, remove the old lever. Unthread the mounting nut and take the arm out.
Reattach the valve top. To prep the new lever, remove the hook and red locking clip on the end. Set these aside for later.
Insert the handle in the tank holding the handle level, then attach the mounting nut. Thread the arm through the flush valve. While holding the handle level and without lifting the flush tower, attach the elbow and arm.

INSTALLATION: WaxFREE Toilet Seal Kit 6000
korky.com/products/wax-free-gaskets/wax-free-toilet-seal-kit
No mess.
Easiest way to install a toilet/fix toilet leaking.
Fits 3" & 4" drain pipes.
Holds bolts upright for easy install.
Replaces wax ring technologies
This short video will give you a quick overview of what is required to complete your Korky WaxFREE seal installation. Included in your packaging are bolts, hex nuts, metal washers, and plastic washers. The rubber seal contains a thick foam ring and a thin foam ring. You will need a wrench, putty knife, and ruler. Please keep in mind, if your closet flange is cracked or damaged, it must be repaired before installing WaxFREE Seal. We do not recommend using sealants. First, shut off the water supply by turning it clockwise. Remove the tank lid and set it aside. Then flush the toilet to empty the water inside of the tank and sponge out the remaining water left in the tank & bowl. Disconnect the water supply line. Next, take off any toilet bowl caps and unscrew the nuts on each side of the toilet. Lift up on the toilet and remove it. If a wax seal was used on the previous install, you will have to clean the closet flange and bottom of the toilet by scraping off any wax. Helpful hint: Prior to installation, place the toilet on the flange to determine if the floor is even. Shims may be needed beneath the toilet to stabilize prior to installing the seal. Now remove the old closet bolts. Install new bolts by twisting bolt heads to secure. Slide the plastic washers down to the base of the bolts to hold in place. Next, determine the closet flange height relative to the finished floor. If the closet flange is above the finished floor, use the ruler on the instructions to determine the height above the floor. If the flange is one half inch or above remove the thick foam ring. If the flange is below one half inch above the floor, remove the thin foam ring. Watch for: If flange is three eights of an inch to one half inch above floor, read cautionary note in step 6 of the instructions. If flange is even with or below, use the full seal, with both the thick and the thin foam ring. For extra deep flanges of three eights of an inch below the finished floor, also use the full seal, both thick and thin foam rings. If the flange is three eights of an inch or more below the finished floor, stack two seals on top of each other. Longer bolts may be needed. Now you can set the bowl in place, caution: toilet may be unstable initially. Install washers & hex nuts. Apply downward pressure to bowl while tightening hex nuts (alternate sides while tightening) Do not over tighten, bowl or closet flange may crack. If you need further assistance with the installation of the WaxFREE seal, call us at 1-800-528-3553.
Hello, and welcome to Korky Toilet repair. Today we’re going to install your new QuietFill Platinum Seal Kit. To begin, turn off the water supply, and then flush your toilet. Sponge out the remaining water in your toilet tank. Next, identify which seal you need for your toilet. Your toilet brand name is stamped between the toilet seat and the tank and the model number is stamped inside your tank. It’s time to replace the old seal. We will break down the replacements for each brand’s flush valve. Feel free to skip ahead in the video to instructions for your toilet model. If your flush valve looks like the image on the screen use the American Standard Champion seal. It has an inside diameter of 2 ⅝” and no tab. Unhook the chain from the handle and lift up on the valve to remove the old seal. Now replace with the new Korky seal. Let the valve fall into place and re-attach the chain to the handle.
If your flush valve looks like the image on the screen use the Kohler seal. It has an inside diameter of 2⅝” and a tab. Remove the refill tube and turn the stop counter clockwise to take off. Unhook the chain connected to the handle and pull the valve off. Remove the old seal and replace with the new Korky seal. Replace the valve and re-attach the chain. Return the stop and turn clockwise to tighten. If your flush valve looks like the image on the screen use the Mansfield seal. It has an inside diameter of 2⅛”.

Unscrew the black nut counterclockwise and remove the green cover. Remove the old seal and replace it with the new Korky seal. To close, hold the post and return the cover. Twist until the slots nest with the pegs. Then screw the nut clockwise until you hear two loud clicks. Warning don’t overtighten, it may cause the nut to break.
For toilets with Dual Flush, there are three possible seals. The first is thick with one marking. The second is thick with two markings. And the third is thick with no markings. Refer to the table or your instructions to find which seal suits your model. Once you’ve found your seal, turn the valve counterclockwise and pull up. Remove the old seal at the bottom of the valve and replace it with the new Korky seal. Turn the valve clockwise to tighten into place. Place a bucket under the toilet tank to catch any excess water. Disconnect the water supply. Locate and remove mounting nut. Remove the old valve. Turn the top of the new fill valve counter clockwise to unlock, and then pull up to fully extend. Place the valve in the tank and press down until the corner of the silver cover and the flush valve overflow line up. Remove the valve. Twist the upper half of the fill valve clockwise to lock. Make sure the rib lines up with the pegs. Place the locked valve in the tank. Replace the mounting nut and reconnect the water supply. Connect the clip into the refill tube. Attach the refill tube to the fill valve. Make sure the tube has direct line to the overflow tube. Clip the refill tube to the overflow tube. Or attach it to the flush valve’s stop. Turn your water supply on. Turn the refill adjuster clockwise to the fully open position and then flush your toilet. Wait two minutes for the bowl to settle and mark the water line with a pencil or dry erase marker. Flush again. If the water level reaches the mark before the tank has finished filling turn the dial counter clockwise to reduce flow.
If the water level is below the mark by the time the tank has finished filling, turn the dial clockwise to increase flow. Repeat this step until the water level in the bowl reaches the mark at the same time the tank finishes filling.

Today we are going to demonstrate how to set a toilet.
Begin by shutting off the water supply and draining all the water from the tank and bowl.
Remove the old bolts at the base of the toilet then lift and remove the toilet.
Next, if messy wax was used on the last install you will need to remove this with a putty knife. Then, Inspect the flange for cracks. If the flange is cracked, you will need to replace it.
Now install your KorkyWaxFREE seal. This seal replaces the outdated wax technology and won’t freeze or melt.
The Korky seal is also adjustable for any flange height by easily removing the foam rings.
Attach the new brass bolts. Place the seal on the flange, and reset the toilet.
This seal allows for an easy placement of your toilet and is great for multiple setting attempts if you don’t get it just right the first time. Traditional wax only allows for one setting attempt.
Now turn on the water supply and your install is complete.
For a clean and easy install, use the Korky WaxFREE Seal.

Hello, and welcome to Korky toilet repair. Today we are going to install your Korky Universal Flush Valve Repair Kit. The first step is to shut off the water supply to the toilet. Next, flush your toilet. Mark the water level in your tank and drain the excess water. Remove the old flapper. Clean the drain seat with steel wool, sandpaper, or an abrasive pad. Wipe all debris and moisture from the surface of the drain seat. Set the new seat upside down on a safe flat surface. Squeeze the silicone sealant evenly around the bottom of the seat. Use about ¾ of the tube. Center the new seat over the old drain seat and press firmly into place. Make sure to avoid getting and sealant on top of the new drain seat. Wait 15 minutes for the sealant to set completely. Install the Korky ultra saver flapper. Attach the flapper ears to the tabs on the flush valve. Attach the flapper chain to the flush lever with minimal slack. Turn the water supply on and wait for the tank to fill completely. Turn off the water supply and flush. If the water line drops within a half inch of the pencil mark, your installation is finished. If not rotate to the open position and reinstall the flapper. Turn the water supply on and let the tank fill completely. Turn off the water supply and flush. If your water line is still not within a half inch of the pencil mark, adjust the dial so the next lowest number aligns with the arrow. Then reinstall your flapper. Turn the water supply on and let the tank refill completely. Turn off the water supply and flush. Repeat this process until the water is within a half inch of the pencil mark. Congratulations you have just installed your Korky Universal Flush Valve Repair Kit. Thank you for choosing Korky.

INSTALLATION: WaxFREE Toilet Seal 6010
Easiest way to install a toilet/fix toilet leaking.
No mess.
Fits 3" & 4" drain pipes.
Holds bolts upright for easy install.
Replaces wax ring technologies.
This short video will give you a quick overview of what is required to complete your Korky WaxFREE seal installation. The rubber seal contains a thick foam ring and a thin foam ring. You will need a wrench, putty knife, and ruler. Please keep in mind, if your closet flange is cracked or damaged, it must be repaired before installing WaxFREE Seal. We do not recommend using sealants. First, shut off the water supply by turning it clockwise. Remove the tank lid and set it aside. Then flush the toilet to empty the water inside of the tank and sponge out the remaining water left in the tank & bowl. Disconnect the water supply line. Next, take off any toilet bowl caps and unscrew the nuts on each side of the toilet. Lift up on the toilet and remove it. If a wax seal was used on the previous install, you will have to clean the closet flange and bottom of the toilet by scraping off any wax. Helpful hint: Prior to installation, place the toilet on the flange to determine if the floor is even. Shims may be needed beneath the toilet to stabilize prior to installing the seal. Now remove the old closet bolts. Install new bolts by twisting bolt heads to secure. Slide the plastic washers down to the base of the bolts to hold in place. Next, determine the closet flange height relative to the finished floor. If the closet flange is above the finished floor, use the ruler on the instructions to determine the height above the floor. If the flange is one half inch or above remove the thick foam ring. If the flange is below one half inch above the floor, remove the thin foam ring. Watch for: If flange is three eights of an inch to one half inch above floor, read cautionary note in step 6 of the instructions. If flange is even with or below, use the full seal, with both the thick and the thin foam ring. For extra deep flanges of three eights of an inch below the finished floor, also use the full seal, both thick and thin foam rings. If the flange is three eights of an inch or more below the finished floor, stack two seals on top of each other. Longer bolts may be needed. Now you can set the bowl in place, caution: toilet may be unstable initially. Install washers & hex nuts. Apply downward pressure to bowl while tightening hex nuts (alternate sides while tightening) Do not over tighten, bowl or closet flange may crack. If you need further assistance with the installation of the WaxFREE seal, call us at 1-800-528-3553.

Hello and welcome to Korky Toilet Repair. Today we are going to show you how to install your new fill valve replacement cap. The first step is to shut off your water supply. Then, flush your toilet to drain the excess water. Remove the refill tube from the fill valve. To remove the valve cover, place your thumb under the tab and pull up. Remove the float by gently pinching the float arms together. Hold the valve body with one hand and twist the cap counter-clockwise 1/8 turn to remove. Now install the new cap by twisting clockwise to lock it on the fill valve. To reattach the float, pinch the float arms in and clip them to the valve body. Tap the top of the float to make sure the float moves freely and does not scrape on the side of the float chamber. Snap the valve cover back into place. Ensure the valve is locked into place by turning it clockwise. Reattach the refill tube to the fill valve. Clip the refill tube to the overflow tube. Turn your water supply back on to complete the service.

Hello, and welcome to ‘how to’ with Korky. Today we will teach you how to determine the correct flapper size for your toilet. Toilets vary in size and shape, as do their flush valve systems. Flappers come in two sizes, two inch and three inch. A majority of toilets will use the two inch flapper; however three inch flappers have become popular in recent years and can be found in newer toilets manufactured since 2005. An easy reference for determining your toilet’s flapper size is to look at the flush valve drain opening at the bottom of your tank. If it is the size of a baseball or an orange, your toilet requires a two inch flapper. If it is the size of a softball or grapefruit, your toilet requires a three inch flapper. This was ‘how to’ with Korky. If you have any questions, please visit our website, www.korky.com.

Hello and welcome to Korky Toilet Repair, today we will be teaching you how to install your new Korky QuietFILL Platinum Fill Valve.
The first step is to shut off the water supply to your toilet. Then flush and hold the lever down to drain the water from your tank. Sponge out the remaining water from your toilet tank.
Place a bucket under you toilet tank to catch any excess water. Disconnect the water supply line and remove the mounting nut. Remove the old fill valve.
Now, turn the top of your new fill valve counterclockwise and pull up to fully extend. Place the valve in the tank and press down on the fill valve until the corner of the silver cover lines up with the top of the flush valve.
Remove the fill valve. Lock the fill valve in place by twisting the upper half clockwise. Make sure the ribs line up with the pegs. Attach the refill tube to your new fill valve.
Make sure the refill tube has a direct path to the flush valve. Insert the metal clip into the refill tube and then attach the clip to the flush valve. Turn the refill adjuster clockwise to the fully open position.
Reattach the water supply line and turn the water supply on. Wait 2 minutes for the water in the bowl to settle.
Mark the water level in the bowl with a pencil or dry erase marker, then flush.
If the bowl water level reaches the mark before the tank is finished filling, turn the dial counter-clockwise to reduce flow.
If the bowl water level is below the mark once the tank is done filling, turn the dial clockwise to increase flow. Repeat this step until the water level reaches the pencil mark at the same time the tank finishes filling.

Bonjour et Bienvenue á Korky Toilet Repair, Aujourd’hui nous vous enseignerons savoir comment faire installer votre nouvelle soupape de remplissage QuietFILL Platinum de Korky.
La première étape est fermer l’alimentation en eau de votre toilette, puis actionnez la chasse d’eau. Éspongez la reste de l’eau.
Placez un seau sous la réservoir de la toilette. Coupez l’alimentation en eau et retirez l’écrou de montage. Retirez le vieille soupape.
Maintenant, tournez le dessus de la nouvelle soupape dans le sens contraire des aiguilles d’une montre pour le déverouiller , puis tirez-le complètement.. Placez la soupape dans le reservoir et enfoncez-la jusqu’á que le coin du couvercle argent et la soupape de chasse soient alignés.
Retirez la soupape. Verrouillez la soupape en tournant sa partie supérieure dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre. Alignez la rainure avec les taquets. Fixez le tube de remplissage á la soupape de remplissage.
Vérifiez le tube de remplissage ait un passage rectiligne á la soupape de chasse. Insérez l’attache en metal dans le tube de remplissage et puis fixez l’attache au tube de trop-plein de la soupape de chasse. Assurez-vous que le cadran du dispositif de réglage du remplissage est en position ouverte et tournez-le dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre.
Brancher la coduite d’ailmentation d’eau et rétablir l’alimentation d’eau. Patientez deux minutes le temps que le mouvement de l’eau dans la cuvette cesse.
Marquez le niveau de l’eau á l’aide d’un crayon ou un feature effaçable á sec, puis actionnez la chasse d’eau.
Si le niveau d’eau n’a pas atteint la marque une fois le remplissage terminé, tournez le cadran dans le sens des aiguilles d’une montre pour augmenter le débit. Si le niveau d’eau atteint la marque avant la fin du remplissage, tournez le cadran dans le sens contraire des aiguilles d’une montre pour réduire le débit. Répétez ces étapes jusqu’à ce que le niveau d’eau atteigne la marque une fois le remplissage terminé.
Félicitations, vous avez terminé l’installation de votre nouvelle soupape de remplissage QuietFILL Platinum de Korky. Si vous avez des questions ou besoin d’aide, visitez notre site ou appelez-nous au 1-800-528-3553.
