Great product. It is an essential part of our Caribbean house that exists on rainwater. The pressure assist keeps waste lines from plugging and water use low.

Ok

To fix my toilet worked well

I had previously purchased components for my 12 year old Flushmate attempting to fix the leak, not realizing that the tank itself was leaking. Guess I was trying to save a dollar or two. When I promptly received this, the entire unit, I read the instructions (I had already watched the short video) I removed the old unit, cleaned the tank and whatever needed cleaning, installed the new unit all in 50 minutes. I used the step by step instructions and followed them verbatim and so glad that I did as one of the last instructions is to take a two gallon bucket and place the supply line into it and turn on the water full blast. I couldn't believe the crud that came out of the supply line that surely would have shortened the life of my new unit. I empted the bucket, and did it again just to me sure there was not any more crud in the existing water supply line. The instructions are excellent in that each one has diagrams, pictures and other suggestions and/or recommendations. The Flushmate replacement is much better than the original in that it is quieter, faster, and comes with a new "flusher" and handle that are superb. They even provide the tool necessary to make the installation so much easier, along with new gaskets and other parts to make the job easier.I think it is commendable that a manufacturer make improvements to their products to make them more efficient and easier to maintain. They provide very good instruction and even telephone support if needed. I did not need phone support, as it was much easier to install than I anticipated. I know now that when my other two twelve year old Flushmates need repairing, I will certainly do it right by installing these complete units and be done with it. And, the warranty on these new models is for ten years rather than five years as is on the original.

When I first installed it there wasn’t much water in the bowl after flushing. I had to take it back out and notch iout the bottom of the plastic tank where the water comes blasting out. Now the bowl has the perfect level of water.

Flushes a lot easier than original unit it replaced. Instructions were real lean.Some comments on installation:You have to turn off the water and flush the old tank to reduce the pressure and empty it but don't count on the old tank being completely empty - mine didn't empty at all and it was still dripping water an hour after I finished. Have a bucket and lots of towels handy just in case. If the tank doesn't empty it can be rather heavy; this is where having an extra pair of hands available to hold the bucket under the hole would have helped. Ideally a small and large bucket comes in real handy.On some toilets the unit doesn't line up with the two holes in the toilet housing unless you detach the water inlet hose from the tank (easy to do). They do include a brief note about this with the instructions but it's easy to overlook it.The unit came with a kit to retrofit the flush mechanism. You have to attach it to the tank with four screws that must be screwed into the plastic holes (not pre-threaded) with a screw driver or a nut driver. Since the screw needs a bit of torque to create the threads as you screw it in, I would strongly recommend you use a nut driver (even if you have to go out and buy one). You don't want a screw to pop lose and fall into the tank once you have it in place.Make sure you follow the instruction's advice about how to tighten the screws against the porcelain. It would be a shame to get to the end and crack it. My toilet (a Gerber) had wing nuts that could only be hand tightened. Good luck.
