I have a lot of toilets in my new house (2 years old). 7 are Toto Drakes. One is the more expensive Toto Soiree - purchased because it was going under a window in a child's bath and we needed a lower profile toilet. As you can imagine, with this many toilets I am not really on the ball regarding whether they are running. . . . My children have apparently had running toilets for a while and the basement one has been running as well. Water bill was around 75.00 a month and shot up to over 300 . . . (we have a well for exterior watering). I have looked in several toilets and the flappers definitely look deteriorated. I have tried to replace a couple but it is more complicated than a normal repair because they are 1.28 toilets and have a float which seems to be the failing point. Can I eliminate the float? Is there a way to retrofit the Drake for a flapper without a float? I have never had so much trouble with toilets or such a high water bill!!!
