American Standard Flapper, Fits Brand American Standard, For Use with Series Cadet III(R), Toilets, Gravity Tanks - 738920-0070A

Gravity - tank flappers and seals are essential for gravity - flush toilets. They cover the tank outlet to control water flow into the bowl. When you flush, the flapper lifts to release water, then reseats to keep water in the tank. The seals around the flappers prevent leaks. These parts are perfect for replacing worn or warped ones that cause toilets to run constantly. Using gravity - tank repair parts can fix leaks and restore proper flushing, saving you the cost of a whole new toilet. They're suitable for homes, apartments, hotel rooms, and other low - traffic areas (20 to 30 flushes per day). If your toilet is leaking, running non - stop, or not flushing properly, it's time to replace these parts.

Using this American Standard flapper is easy. First, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, remove the old flapper and the seal from the tank outlet. Next, install the new flapper and make sure it fits snugly. Reattach the chain to the flush handle so that it can lift the flapper when you flush. Finally, turn the water supply back on and check for leaks. As for maintenance, it's a good idea to check the flapper and seal regularly for signs of wear, like cracks or warping. If you notice any issues, replace them right away to keep your toilet working well. And be gentle when using the flush handle to avoid damaging the flapper.
