ABSTRACT:
An attachment for interrupting the flushing action of a toilet before the entire volume of water in the toilet tank has exited includes a buoyant member that is connected to the water outlet plug of the toilet tank and acts to close the plug when some but not all of the water in the tank has exited. The buoyant member is connected to the plug and closes the plug by applying its weight to the plug when the member is no longer supported by the water. An adapter allows the buoyant member to act on flapper valves as well as on conventional tank plugs.
