How Do You Remove A Mansfield Flush Valve From A Toilet?
Repairing a Mansfield flush valve may end up being more than just a seal repair. If you find that you need to replace the valve, you will first have to remove the Mansfield flush valve. Removing the flush valve will require removal of the toilet tank. The retaining nut is between the toilet bowl flange and the toilet tank. Once you have the valve out of the tank, take the valve to a hardware store for a replacement. Step 1 Turn the water supply off to the toilet tank at the water cutoff valve. The cutoff valve will be on the water supply line behind the toilet. Remove the toilet tank lid and set the lid on a flat surface out of the way. Step 2 Flush the toilet and hold the toilet handle until most of the water is gone from the tank. Use a few towels and a bucket to soak up the remaining water from the tank. Step 3 Disconnect the water supply line from the fill valve under the bottom of the toilet tank. Use a pair of channel lock pliers to unscrew the the water line from the fill valve.
