    The water level in the bowl recedes below the fill line shortly after flushing. This take about a minute after the tank and bowl are full. The fill valve (Fluidmaster) height and float height are maxed out. The flapper dial is at the max too. The refill tub is inside flush valve. Any suggestions?

    My problem is that the new toilet has that screw adjustment but it is already at the max adjustment and I still don’t have enough water in the bowl. Any suggestions?

    • @ReluctantDIYers
      @ReluctantDIYers  Před 5 měsíci +3

      How close is the top of your fill valve to the top of your tank? You could adjust the height of the fill valve where it attaches to the bottom of your tank by threading down the attachment nut (basically making the fill valve taller). This can help if you have the room in the tank.
      I hope this helps!

      Some toilets have large traps that hold most of the water that your tank can produce and you are unfortunately limited as to how much water you can add. I’m wondering if that’s what’s happening.

    Well you did a great job unfortunately IVE NEVER SEEN A BLUE VALVE that controls the bowl water.
    So what do the 99.9% of the rest of us do with the low water in the bowl?

    • @ReluctantDIYers
      @ReluctantDIYers  Před 5 měsíci

      You can adjust your float so it allows more water in the tank. If that doesn’t provide enough, you can also adjust the fill valve so it is higher in the tank (closer to the lid). This forces your float to a higher position also.
      I hope this helps. 👍🏼👍🏼

      I just installed a new fill valve in my toilet. The old one had a ballcock, new one is similar to what he showed here. Very simple to install - just look up CZcams on how to install new fill valve. But if you don't want to put a new one in, you could look up how to raise or lower ballcock on fill valve. Lowering it will put more water in bowl, raising it will release less.
