ABSTRACT:
A water-saving float-to-inlet valve adapter device or modifier which may comprise original equipment or a replacement for a conventional substantially transversely directed attachment arm conventionally provided and connecting a buoyant float and an inlet valve into a toilet flush tank, with the modifier or adapter functioning to effectively modify the normal position of such a buoyant float, and correspondingly the normal maximum height of the water level in the flush tank at the end of each refilling operation, when the adapter effectively causes the inlet refilling valve to be turned off, whereby to in effect greatly reduce the amount of water contained in the toilet flush tank at the end of a refilling operation following each flushing operation and consequently reducing the amount of water utilized in each flushing operation, which in one preferred form, is selectively adjustable.
