ABSTRACT:
A double valve construction selectively provides a full flush or a partial flush from the tank of a toilet. The apparatus, which may be utilized to modify existing toilet water closets, includes a manifold mounted on the tank in communication with an outlet for draining water from the tank. The manifold includes a pair of valve seats, one located proximate to the bottom of the tank and one located distant from the bottom of the tank. An actuating mechanism selectively operates a pair of valves associated with the valve seats and is so arranged that when an operating handle is turned in one direction, it disengages the upper valve from the upper valve seat for a partial flush and when the operating handle is moved in the opposite direction, it disengages the lower valve from the lower valve seat for a full flush.
