RE: [DIY] different toilet fill valve issue

 

Menards sells a small pressure sensor type valve that really works well.  You change the water level with a nylon screw.

I would first shut off the water, twist open the top (push down first) and see if the mechanisms inside are setting in thier position right or if there is a particle (rust, rock, whatever) is keeping the valve open.  If everything is OK, I would just buy another - they aren't that expensive.  Just make sure you drain the tank first; I've tried a quick switch even with a completely flushed tank and it still makes a mess.  After shutting off the water and flushing, use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining water.

I have a toilet fill valve that won't shut off. I have adjusted the level of the fluidmaster float, the height of the whole unit, manually lifted the float.

None of this works.

Does the unit need to be replaced?
