Why does the toilet keep refilling?

Why does the toilet keep refilling?

If your toilet keeps refilling at 15-minute intervals, it probably has a leak. In the vast majority of cases, the problem is with the flapper, which is the rubber seal between the tank and the bowl. Turn off the toilet shutoff valve and flush the toilet. Hold down the handle to empty the tank as much as possible.

What causes a fill valve to stop working?

A chain that’s too short or tangled won’t allow the flapper to close and water will continue to leak into the bowl. This causes the fill valve to cycle on and off to refill the tank. A chain that’s too long, or a flush rod that hits the tank lid, won’t open the flapper wide enough to stay open for the full flush.

Why does my toilet run for a few seconds then stop?

Your toilet randomly runs on and off for a few seconds due to a problem called “phantom flush”. This is caused by a slow water leak from the tank into the bowl and is often the result of a sediment build-up on the flapper (aka “flush valve seal”) or a bad flapper seat.
