Flows tank? 10 minutes and forgotten!

Flowing Water - shakes his counter, and the output in the country. Oh, what do you do? The problem with a drain tank - like a toothache, but it is often possible to improve the situation without resorting to plumbing, relatives and neighbors. To do this, you need to learn a simple algorithm, and roll up your sleeves. Let's start! But not to miss useful, it is better to subscribe to a channel, you will not regret!

IMPORTANT! We are talking about a situation where it is watertight drainage mechanism that is mounted in the center of the tank, rather than side - called the inlet.

So:

1. Cover the water, unscrew the plastic button on the roof. Do not be afraid to break it, it is durable. Unscrews it like a normal nut. Twist until it pops up. Main good grip at first.

2. Remove the cover. She is stuck, so do everything carefully.

3. Reaches into the tank, or even two, if fit, undertake the vertical mechanism at the center as low as possible, almost at the base and turn it clockwise (sometimes vice versa). It should crank a little bit, by about 90 °, the disconnect and remain in their hands. Now, at the bottom is visible bolted to the tank part (see. on the picture).

4. In the disconnected fixture, in its lower part there is a rubber ring. It is usually black or white.

5. We examine it and wonder how much it is dirty! This ring covers the exit, and just because of the dense mud tires does not get accustomed to the base at the bottom and water begins to flow.

5. Boldly remove rubber ring, well washed with detergent and check that there are no other defects.

6. If the tire is old and spreads, or it is clear that she was very worn out, then simply take it with you and go to buy a new, exactly the same, similar options are not relevant, it is checked. Be sure to bring old! The market can not find a replacement "by eye". When, after washing, it is seen that the whole ring, is put into place, but without warps and not upside down.

7. Set in place a mechanism plastic drain and turn counterclockwise. On the body there are small hooks, they have to get into the groove on the basis that at the bottom of the tank.

8. Now open the tap, run the water, wait until the tank is filled through and check to see if there is a leak.

9. If all goes well, close the lid and screwed into the flush button. But if after the repair the water continues to flow, then the rubber gasket is already irreversibly changed its configuration, and is unable to provide a seal. In this case, we remove it again and go to look for a new one.

The only way! But you do not have to buy a new tank. A new set as described above and enjoy the fruits of your hands!

Now you can eliminate such problems themselves. Soon I will write more, how to address other ills cistern.
