The toilet is the number one source of water waste in the home, and according to the American Water Works Association, more than 20% of all toilets leak. Even a small leak wastes an average of 200 gallons of water every day, and a more severe leak, due to a flapper that’s stuck open, can waste 4,800 gallons of water each day. So what this boils down to is that having a water-efficient toilet is a great way to save water, money, and our resources. 
However, all that efficiency could be lost in one fell poop, as it were, if what I call the toilet’s “guts” leak. Known to normal people as the flapper and fill valve, these are wear parts. Eventually chains break, flappers get hung up or the system otherwise leaks. And because most toilet flappers and fill valves shut off once the float rises to the top the tank, the weak link here is when they don’t.
Korky’s WaterWI$E fill and flapper valve safeguard against this water-draining problem with a simple solution: The WaterWi$E fill valve senses the tank is leaking and won’t refill it. If the flapper gets stuck open, WaterWI$E automatically shuts the water off until it’s adjusted. WaterWI$E fits most toilets. Talk about a couple thousand ounces of prevention.
