Abstract:
The toilet tank water conservation device has a bracket adapted for attachment to the overflow tube of a toilet tank. The bracket includes a guide ledge having a bore defined therein. The device includes a float ball attached to a cylindrical guide rod, the rod being slidable through the bore defined in the guide ledge. The device is installed so that when the toilet tank is flushed, the water level drops and the ball drops by gravity, striking the flapper flush and closing the flush valve early in order to (1) conserve water by limiting the amount of water released from the tank into the bowl, and consequently (2) decreasing the likelihood of overflow from the toilet bowl in the event of a clogged drain. The device may include a flange about the circumference of the rod in order to prevent the rod from sliding through the bore when water drains from the tank.
