Last summer (2021) I installed a Caroma sydney smart II in a cottage washroom that gets drained every winter, and is left unheated.
It's in Eastern Ontario and the winter temps drop to -25C all the time.
I added RV antifreeze to the toilet in October as was done with the old toilet, shutting the supply valve off.
Today I filled the tank and flushed the antifreeze only to find the fill valve is not sealing and the tank overfill goes down the tube.
It had worked fine all last summer.
I removed and disassembled the ballcock/valve tower and didn't find anything out of the ordinary.
I reduced the fill level cutoff and reinstalled, no change.
Is this valve ballcock assembly just a "hothouse orchid" and am I going to have remove it every fall to store it in a heated room over winter?
The Caroma part number for the valve (top) is B3300-MA, the toilet P/N is 302100W
