Danco HydroRight Dual Flush Valve, Lever Handle, Chrome (HYR271T)

Works as expected and it was a simple install.

I just installed this product and it’s working great. The install on this product was pretty simple and took me about 30min, mainly due to the old lever handle being problematic/stripping when trying to take it off + me being overly cautious so as to not damage anything during the install. It’s working seamlessly now and it’s pretty awesome/shocking to see how much less later is needed and used on the quick-flush (liquids) setting – The “up to 70% less water” claim is definitely accurate. Below are some additional observations/recommendations: 1. NOTE that this specific product does NOT include a fill valve (not an issue for me, as I replaced the fill valve a year ago and the product works great with it). 2. I’d recommend YouTube for install instructions, as what I found and used was on point and easily understood even though it included the Danco Fill Valve and instructions therein. 3. The flush converter base was the only thing that threw me off during the install, as it was difficult to have a point of reference for a “snug fit”. I took it off and put it back on a few times before realizing that it was on correctly ( wasn’t sure how much the blue rubber piece should depress into the tank hole, but after some checking, I realized that it had dropped in fine). 4. I tested including 4-sheets of toilet paper with the quick flush, for obvious reasons, and they went down fine.

This doesn't work well with toilets designed for low water usage. the low setting doesn't flush at all, so I had to use only the full flush. As for installation, it's held in place with a zip strap and is very hard to put in place if you have a small tank. If the zip strap isn't tight enough it creeps up and leaks. May be better to use a hose clamp if you have room to install one. If you push it down to tight against the drain, it crinkles the seal and leaks, so may take some trial and error. I finally decided to remove it and reinstall a traditional rubber flapper.

it is about time they come up with something to replace those pain in rear replacement flappers and chains and handles...no more chains kinking up holding the flapper open so continued running water..my family love this system..took mefe monments to install..no tools...and no problems from then on...wish these were out when I owned rentals..and also property managers on apartment buildings..great product!

I bought this as I grow tired of watching so much water being used for every 'number 1' through the course of the day. The installation instructions were pretty straightforward although it wasn't entirely easy. It took some time to get the silicone gasket to mate with the drain hole and prevent a constant drain. It also took a while to get the small flush adjusted so that it was sufficient enough to empty the bowl. There are some routing concerns to avoid the refill float on my side flush toilet. The flush handle is in two parts and some education to users will be necessary for proper use. Looking at it, I think that the biggest problem will be 'number 2' elimination as that requires use of only part of the flush handle. The button style would probably be easier to teach if you have the flush on the front of the tank in easy access. Anyway, after some trial and tribulation, I got it installed and it works as designed. The toilet will flush appropriately as motivated by the correct flushing method. The mechanical design is sound although I'm still concerned with the human factor.

There's positives and negatives with this product first I have purchase several of these because of the design. All newer toilet tanks fill with less water, about half the volume of older toilet tanks, the reason obviously for conservation and environmental purposes. So the more gallons in the tank the easier it was for waste goes down, which is why I replace all my toilets with this design. The water from a conventional flap value exits from the side when the flap raises, this type lets the water drop so it has more force to pull waste down. That for me was a big positive, since my kids throw everything down the toilet from to much toilet paper to a 2 man deep sea diving bell. On the negative side, I think this is overprice, about 3 times the cost of the side flap design. And this is here's a biggie, this will not work with tanks where the handle mounts on the front because the handle in this kit protrudes out to far and the toilet seat hits it and eventually marking/denting the toilet seat. It works with handles that are mounted on the side of the tank. I've purchased both the handle design and the button design, the handle pulls easy and the dual flush works good. The button design is very hard to push especially when your on the toilet and reaching back, I don't see how younger kids have enough strength to push the button design. On the positive side it's very easy to install. Like I mentioned this is expensive but maybe that's why they call it "the throne".

I purchased three of these in the hopes that it would significantly reduce water usage. I think early on they probably did reduce usage somewhat, but when you have family members that always want a "full flush", then that's a problem. Also, reading the instructions I was able to eventually figure out how to adjust the valve for longer or shorter flushes, so that helped some, but my biggest problem is that just like the legacy valves, over time they leak, but instead of a cheaper replacement solution, I would have to purchase another full system, when all I need is the valve piece that fits over the tank drain. So yeah, going back to the legacy style, which have seemed to be a bit improved over the years.

I have had a Danco Hydroright Dual Flush valve in an upstairs bathroom for over 3 years without any issues. It has worked great and saves water. I just replaced a problematic competitors valve with a new Danco Hyroright Dual Flush with the handle instead of the button. I hope this one performs as well as the first unit that is still working well. I do find the button valve a little hard to push and for little ones it would be very difficult. I like the handle unit I just installed better. During my install I had to turn the unit 180 degrees because the flush valve hose barely reached the handle assembly in the other direction. Now, how do I tell guests about the dual flush system? I do think a clearer marking on the handle might help.

Simple installation and works as advertised. Good quality product that converts a standard toilet to dual flush. Took a bit to get the settings right to work with my tank but once I did, it worked perfectly.

Fue fácil de instalar, el que se pueda administrar la cantidad de agua que se gasta es una opción muy útil. Nunca uso la segunda palanca para descarga total del tanque.

I was having an issue with my chain and flapper system, bought this product, installed it in minutes and it works extremely well. I will be replacing it in my other toilets too.

Funciona Perfecto, es fácil de instalar.

It fits perfectly with the existing tank and I just need to remove the old parts and insert it and screw fix the flush lever. I brought it at a sale price which is $10 off the price which is great. I could imagine I can save quite some water and money from now on.
