Step 4 · Install New Flapper

Take the new toilet flapper and position it over the overflow pipe, ensuring it is centered over the flush valve opening. Align the two mounting ears on the new flapper with the corresponding pegs on the sides of the overflow pipe. Gently press each ear onto its peg until it snaps securely into place. Check that the flapper is seated correctly and can hinge up and down freely.
