I’ve had a trouble-free Moen hot/cold spigot for my hot tub for 11 years. Today, it would not turn in the hot direction. There was a mechanical block. It’s not leaking. Cold water direction works fine. Guess I’ll have to change the valve when it’s warmer outside.

3 Totos and 3 bad flappers I am buying my third Korky 3-inch replacement flapper for my 3rd Toto toilet. The oldest flapper lasted 3.5 years. The rubber literally seems to have shrunk with the cold water this season and will no longer cover the 3 inch opening even when I adjust by hand. I...

I could not adjust the lever to avoid pulling flapper off center. Instead I cut a small piece of the white plastic chain sleeve and put it on the back drain-flapper connector hook to create a washer buttress to keep the flapper from sliding towards the front of the tank and off center. Not...

Yes, I think the flapper is pulled slightly off center by the brass lever arm, but so far I have been unable to adjust it so that the pull is enough when it is on center. I will try again. I do believe if the flapper were stiffer this would not be an issue. Thanks for the advice. Evan

No chemicals. It is a brand new toilet. The flapper literally lands off center and then by the strong suction gets sucked partially into the drain.

I have a newly installed one-piece Guinevere Toilet. Approximately 50% of the time the flapper lands off center and distorts after closing and allows water to leak around the edge causing the toilet to run continuously and often making a strange whistling sound. I do not believe this is an...
