The small tube that refills the bowl is easy to overlook, and a misplaced one causes a weak flush. Here is the Homestead guide.
What it does
The refill tube sends water into the overflow tube to refill the bowl after a flush.
The problem
If it is disconnected or pushed too far down, the bowl does not refill and the flush suffers.
The fix
Clip the tube so it points into the overflow tube without touching the water.
The call
A correctly set tube makes every flush right. Call 888-217-3585 and Homestead Home Plumbing Co will match you with a Homestead pro.
