In January 2019, my landlord hired a plumber to replaced my toilet with a new American Standard toilet. (I know the plumber bought the toilet from Home Depot, if that makes a difference to this problem.)
The toilet flushes and works fine except that it has began to spontaneously run as if the flapper was old and brittle. I looked around in the tank, but I don't see anything wrong. The flapper looks fine. One thing I saw with the flapper is that it is rubber, but underneath it has some kind of plastic support thing. I have never seen that on a flapper before.
Any ideas on the problem? Thank you.
BTW, I don't want to bother my landlord with what can be a $4 fix. (He is a good guy.)
