What happens here

After shutting off the water, the toilet tank will still contain water. To prepare for component removal, you need to drain the water from the tank. You can do this by removing the fill valve, which will allow most of the water to drain out. Have a bucket or container ready to catch any remaining water once the fill valve is fully removed. Place a towel on the floor around the toilet to absorb any spills.

Goal: Remove water from the toilet tank.

Tools and materials

  • Adjustable Wrench DeWalt — Loosening the supply line nut from the fill valve
  • Container — Catching water from the tank
  • Towel — Absorbing spills and protecting the floor
