Flush Valve This is the plastic or metal part sitting at the bottom of the tank, forming the opening through which water drops out of the tank and into the toilet bowl when a flush is initiated.

What are the two parts of a toilet?

There are really only two main toilet tank parts: The toilet flush valve, which lets water gush into the bowl during the flush, and the fill valve, which lets water refill the tank after the flush. When a toilet runs constantly or intermittently, one of these valves is usually at fault.

Can you replace a toilet yourself?

Replacing and installing a new toilet isnt as hard as it may sound. All you need are a few hours, a helper and the right tools and toilet parts for the job.
