How Does a Flushometer Work?

A flushometer is a commercial-grade flushing device typically found on wall-mounted toilets and urinals in public and commercial restrooms. Unlike traditional gravity-flush toilets that use a water tank, a flushometer connects directly to a pressurized water supply line. When activated, either manually or automatically, the flushometer valve opens and immediately releases a measured amount of water directly into the bowl.

Key parts of a flushometer include:

  • Control Stop Valve – regulates water supply to the unit
  • Diaphragm Assembly or Piston Assembly – controls water pressure and timing of the flush
  • Handle or Sensor Assembly – manual lever or motion sensor to activate the flush
  • Vacuum Breaker – prevents backflow into the water supply
  • Spud Coupling – connects the valve to the toilet or urinal

This pressure-based system allows for rapid and consistent flushes, making it ideal for high-use environments. But due to their complexity, flushometers require specialized expertise for troubleshooting and repair.

How to Determine if Your Flushometer Has Gone Bad

Not sure if your flushometer needs a repair or replacement? Watch for these signs:

  • The toilet or urinal continues running after flush
  • Weak or incomplete flush cycles
  • The handle is stuck, stiff, or loose
  • Water is leaking at the valve or spud connection
  • Sensor not responding or flushing erratically
  • No flush when activated despite a steady water supply

Even minor flushometer problems can lead to high water bills, unsanitary conditions, or fixture damage over time. Don’t wait until there’s a flood; schedule service at the first sign of trouble.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my toilet flushometer keep flushing?

Continuous flushing is often caused by a faulty diaphragm assembly or sensor malfunction. It’s important to have the unit inspected and repaired promptly to avoid water waste.

What is the minimum pressure for a flushometer?

Most flushometers require a minimum water pressure of 25 PSI to operate correctly. Insufficient pressure can lead to incomplete flushes or operational issues.

Why is my flushometer not flushing enough water?

Low water pressure, a clogged diaphragm, or an improperly set flow volume may cause weak flushing. A licensed plumber can diagnose and adjust the system for optimal performance.

What is the life expectancy of a flushometer?

With proper maintenance, a flushometer can last 15 to 20 years. Regular inspections and part replacements help extend its service life.

Why would a flushometer keep running?

A flushometer may keep running due to a worn diaphragm, clogged bypass, or debris preventing the valve from sealing. Professional maintenance can resolve the issue efficiently.
