Hi,
We have been facing an issue of water seeping into toilet bowl forcing toilet tank to fill periodically - as water level goes down periodically. We replaced the flapper (blue rabbit ear one) multiple times w/o any success. We also tried cleaning the brass flush valve to remove sediments during the replacement of the flapper. We were thinking of replacing the toilets to avoid wasting the water but wanted to check if we can address the issue w/o replacing the toilet - as toilet it self is working fine. Note: This toilet must have installed during 1993.
btw, we ensured the water is leaking into the bowl by putting colored dye (one get it from Ace Hardware) in the toilet tank.
Would appreciate any pointers/help.
Thanks!
