Fluidmaster 502P21 Universal Flapper with Microban, Red

I bought this because one of our toilets would randomly keep running and it was driving me insane. I kept jiggling the handle, adjusting things inside the tank, and trying temporary fixes until I finally decided to just replace the flapper. Problem solved immediately. Installation was straightforward and only took a few minutes. Once installed, the toilet stopped constantly running and has been working normally ever since. Sometimes it’s amazing how such a small inexpensive part can completely fix an issue that’s wasting water and becoming annoying every single day. The material feels much better than some of the cheap generic flappers I’ve used in the past and it created a solid seal right away without needing a bunch of tweaking or adjustment. Honestly, if your toilet keeps randomly running or cycling on and off, there’s a good chance your flapper is the issue and this was an easy inexpensive fix that worked perfectly for me.

It is exactly as depicted. The plastic is fairly thick for what it is, so considering its placement I think it will last a very very long time. The one we had prior was entirely made of rubber and it had sagged and torn over time, leaving an endless flow of water that racked up an extra $50/m on our city bill. Putting this on was SUPER easy, I am a woman (and certainly not a plumber) and I had no problem clicking it into place or attaching the chain to the lever. I love the price, very fair. As mentioned, the top cap is plastic, but I find that beneficial. Firstly, it will not sag as the old one did. Secondly, it makes movement easy, as its quick to lift and quick to drop. Mind you this toilet is in my young children's room, so they need something that doesnt require excess effort to flush. Highly recommend.

Le quedo muy bien al tanque de agua . No hemos tenido problemas , fácil instalación

I recently found that there was a constant trickle of water from the toilet cistern into the pan. The cistern has a Fluid Master flapper valve that I fitted in 2011 and I noticed that when it was in the shut position it wasn't forming a water tight seal any more. After lots of fiddling about and no success (in fact, I ended up making things worse so that the trickle became a proper flow!), I discovered through blogs that the flapper mechanism often become distorted after typically 5 years of use and need to be replaced. There's no need to replace the whole flush mechanism, just the red valve. I ordered a replacement flapper valve and installed it within 10 minutes (the bit that took longest was fiddling to get the chain to the right length). Note that Fluid Master produces 3 variants of the flapper valve - the one I needed was a 502, so should you need to replace yours please just check that yours looks the same as this one; if not, it could be a 501 or 504 variant.

fits the TOTO toilets at home. replaced two cracked leaky valves, no more leaks!
