American Standard Flapper, Fits Brand American Standard, For Use with Series Colony, Toilets, Gravity Tanks - 7381008-400.0070A

Gravity-tank flappers and seals are crucial for gravity-flush toilets. They cover the water outlet, lift to flush, and reseat to hold water. When worn or warped, they can cause leaks and continuous running. Replace them to fix leaks, restore proper flushing, and avoid costly toilet replacement. These parts are suitable for gravity-fed tanks in homes, apartments, hotels, and low-traffic areas (20 - 30 flushes per day). Signs of a tank needing repair are leaking, constant running, and flushing failure.

Using this American Standard flapper is easy. First, turn off the water supply to the toilet. Then, remove the old flapper and seal from the tank. Next, install the new flapper, making sure it fits snugly. Finally, turn the water supply back on and check for leaks. Remember to handle the flapper gently to avoid damage. For maintenance, regularly check the flapper and seal for wear and tear. If you notice any issues, replace them promptly. This will keep your toilet working properly and prevent unnecessary water waste.
