If your toilet keeps running or you have to jiggle the handle to get it to stop, chances are good that you need to replace the toilet flapper valve. I'm going to show you how to choose the right toilet flapper valve for your toilet. Then I'll guide you through the installation.

Sure, this is a super easy fix. But there are some nifty tips that'll ensure you do this the right way. Trust me here, you don't want to buy the wrong flapper valve and discover that your toilet runs AGAIN!!!

If you have an older toilet that uses 3.5 gallons per flush you'll need a different kind of flapper valve than a toilet that uses 1.6 or 1.28 gallons per flush. Usually the gallons per flush is stamped on the top of the toilet bowl.

Use this information to buy the right flapper and choose one that has Microban in it. Microban will stop your flapper from being degraded by bacteria. Pretty cool stuff.
