why would overflow tube fill with water after flushing
Home Improvement Asked by Lilypad on June 14, 2021
After flushing while thank is filling the overflow tube fills up with water coming from the refill tube. I know it’s not supposed to do that. What could cause this? Should i change the flush valve?
One Answer
It is normal for the refill tube to put water into the overflow pipe. It fills the bowl with new water.
The tank is filled by water coming out of the fill valve near the bottom of the tank.
It is not normal for the overflow tube to fill up with water. If it is filling with water, it is clogged. Run a wire or fish line or zip tie down the overflow tube to try to dislodge whatever is clogging it.
